"Ask Rocky" Anything

[Nixxxed]

I think my cockatoo wants to type on the Internet, so I'm just gonna let him. :lol:

If he's out for playtime, and I'm suring the Net, he DEMANDS to be on my shoulders, so he can climb down on my arms and hop on the keyboard as I'm typing. I can't fight it anymore, and my Delete key is just about shot from having to erase his "mistakes".

But maybe they aren't mistakes ... ? Ask Rocky a question, and I'll let him reply to you. I won't edit them whatsoever - I'll only click the "Submit Message" button when he seems to be done.

(Who knows? Could be fun...) Ask away!!! :D

Oh, and here's an opening statement from The Purty Burd himself:

Okay - that's all he typed. And he kept hitting the function keys, which made my screen do all kinda trippy stuff. ***oooh, the colors*** I hope this works.... :laugh:

Wanna see something weird? As he was randomly hitting keys, he somehow got Google to search for the word "fhujo".

Oh, and Curtis, I think I deciphered Rocky's response to you. He's asking YOU the same question. :p

Dear Rocky,

I'm having some serious problems. My mother recently has told me that my real father is not the one I have known all my life, but rather works for the local Honey Glazed Ham store as a butcher. She met him at a Grateful Dead concert apparently. What should I do?

Sincerely,

This is the funniest thing I've read in a long time! Rocky's responses are too funny :laugh: Thanks for the laugh!

[Nixxxed]

LOL. I know. And Rocky says thank you.

I'd let him type his own thanks, but he's too busy trying to crawl up my shirt sleeve. I think he's trying to lick off my deodorant. Seriously. Have you ever tried to extract a full-grown umbrella cockatoo who's wedged himself into your armpit? Not fun.

Perhaps this thread was a bad idea. I have visions of him starting to like, and I know I'd never get a word in edgewise. :laugh: :nod:

He's a jealous, very jealous bird.

I kept hoping he'd inadvertently type out smilie code, or hidden messages would appear. But he did find those Google pages with that nonsense word, so who knows? :shrug: :shrug: :shrug:

Oh wait - you don't think those are like encrypted CIA-type pages do you? Or messages to/from terrorists??? :eek:

Probably for the same reason I just guffawed my way through this thread. I laughed out loud four or five times. Maybe Rocky can start charging for his advice.

This thread made me smile, thank you.

Rocky (if you're there), I have very much enjoyed talking to you & reading what you have to say & I would say this is my favorite ledge thread the entire month ... perhaps longer.

I haven't laughed this hard since I watched my new box set copy of "It's A Gift" some months back.

THANK YOU, Rocky & god bless.

[sparky]

Rocky, are you still taking questions ?

1) Should I go to Vegas ?

2) I am bird sitting. My lovebird, Coco, is interested in the visiting lovebird, Bandito. Could it be love ?

Please advise.

I'm eating my dinner right now (peanuts, canataloupe, and cornbread - YUM), but I hope Chuck lets me online a little later to talk with you all some more. That is, assuming our town doesn't explode AGAIN like it did last night:

So, thanks again! Who knows, Chuck and I may even get our lovebird friend Zorro in on the fun...

Oh, and Ryan, this is especially for you - even though Chuck and I both agree that it won't make the slightest difference whatsoever. :laugh: :xoxo:

Sorry for the threadsurrection, but Rocky died Friday.

He apparently developed some kind of respiratory infection, and I caught it too late for antibiotics to be of any help. Birds are funny that way - they hide illness at all cost, for fear of being ostracized from "the flock," which is what would happen in the wild. And I've been assured it wasn't bird flu, thank goodness, so my lovebird Zorro should be fine.

I just wanted to honor Rocky in some small way, and there's no way more fitting than this thread. If only you all could have seen how happy he was to finally be allowed to stomp and dance all over my keyboard (after being told "NO!" so many times), you just wouldn't stop laughing.

I just re-read this thread, and am finally laughing again after a very tough couple of days. I hope you'll do the same, then go give your pet(s) extra hugs, kisses, and treats tonight.

Rocky was a special bird. He sure gave me some joy and I never even really got to meet him.

Oh, no. I'm really sorry to hear about Rocky :(. I lost my dog in February, so I know how much it sucks to have to say goodbye to a beloved pet. Sending good thoughts your way...

Thanks - I looked it up on IMDB, and it sounds very interesting. I tried to watch March of the Penguins last night, but only made it halfway through. I realize penguins and cockatoos are very different, but it was just too soon for anything bird-related.

And Ken, sorry to hear about your kitty. I saw the pics in the other thread, and she (?) was beautiful.
