   Completely dead? Or only mostly dead?

   These sand martins are mostly dead too.

   In about 48 hours.

   “The Princess Bride” has something for every occasion.

   Inigo Montoya: He’s dead. He can’t talk.

   Miracle Max: Whoo-hoo-hoo, look who knows so much. It just so happens that your friend here is only MOSTLY dead. There’s a big difference between mostly dead and all dead. Mostly dead is slightly alive. With all dead, well, with all dead there’s usually only one thing you can do.

   Inigo Montoya: What’s that?

   Miracle Max: Go through his clothes and look for loose change.

   Did anyone remember to check for loose change?

    Ironically, it is also the world’s longest story about a Brown-throated Sand Martin.

    I hope it wasn’t something like this.

    They crashed into cars and boats, huddled in yards and were struck by vehicles. Hundreds of pelicans from Oregon to Mexico were found either acting funny or dead in 2009

    Did you see any Brown-throated Sand Martins acting funny?

    Started out strong, seemed to drag a little in the middle.

    Maybe you could edit it down a little, and spice it up with a car chase or a sex scene. Do I smell summer blockbuster? Why yes, I think I do!

    The Sand Martinets seem to be flourishing.
