Insult to chickadees, which happen to be my favorite birds. ;)

Ok. I'm "leaving" now.

She was looking for a male maudlin warbler, for mating purposes.

She wasn’t a stupid hippie. She was too old. She was a stupid beatnick.

Stop what? She obviously wasn’t a chicken about heights.

And, anyone who says she was is certainly "barking up the wrong tree."

There is no age limit on being a hippie.

Joan Baez had a treehouse built -- without walls -- 20 feet high in an oak tree behind her Woodside home

That's because she was unwilling to put the time and energy and money into doing the job right.

It was a flet. (LOTR reference).

Unfortunately, Joan isn’t an elf.

Anyway, Mr. L, I think your "bark" is worse than your bite...
