Yesterday at work, the kids at the nearby juvenile detention facility high school were enjoying lunch outside. A few of them began throwing french fries into the street, and wouldn’t you know it, a swarm of seagulls jumped on the fries and were run over by one car.
Photo highlights courtesy of my boss. He thought it might be worthy to put in the paper. I doubt that will happen.
In total, four seagulls were hit, three of them obliterated by the car. The one surviving seagull wouldn’t wait for wildlife services to get there. He ran across the street and was hit by another car. Animal Control needed a shovel to get him off the street. And that ended this week’s installment of “in front of my office.”
And now, I’m off for my vacation!

Have a good vaca. I’ve still got the rest of the week to get through..
Hope The Pats give us a nice AFC East Christmas present on Sun.
Dude…why can’t I have fun stuff like that happen at work? Oh wait..some person jumped off a building last year
So if they can arrest a window washer for swatting at a seagull, what’s going to happen to these kids?
The police said there wasn’t much they could do and the driver wasn’t going fast at all. He just assumed the seagulls would fly off when he drove by. Stuff like this is always happening in front of my office. It’s crazy.
