That age is best which is the first,

When youth and blood are warmer;

But being spent, the worse, and worst

Times still succeed the former.

Then be not coy, but use your time,

And while ye may, go marry;

For having lost but once your prime,

You may forever tarry.

[SPEAKER_03]: Michael Mera, Radio Entertainment.

[SPEAKER_01]: I had to get it again, and now he'll be here quietly with a start to show.

[SPEAKER_03]: T.M.O.S.

[SPEAKER_03]: Classic Friday flashback.

[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, early for today, moments before airtime.

[SPEAKER_03]: What's yes?

[SPEAKER_03]: Moments before airtime, I was informed by my wife.

[SPEAKER_03]: Oh my god, there's a bird in the house.

[SPEAKER_03]: Oh my god.

[SPEAKER_03]: Mrs. O'Mara was walking our Boston Terrier Winslow.

[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_03]: And a stupid chickady came flying in.

[SPEAKER_03]: And in the little sun porch area of the house, we have lots of windows.

[SPEAKER_03]: Yes.

[SPEAKER_03]: And of course, the chickady is not able to fly back.

[SPEAKER_03]: Help the people.

[SPEAKER_04]: Yes.

[SPEAKER_04]: About the bed.

[SPEAKER_03]: There's a giant, I don't know what they call the windows that are like, crescent-shaped.

[SPEAKER_03]: It's not a bay window as much as it's a window.

[SPEAKER_02]: It's a window above another window sort of.

[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, a window above another window.

[SPEAKER_03]: It's a big one.

[SPEAKER_03]: It's a great one.

[SPEAKER_03]: And it's a great one.

[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, you went bird shopping, but we're doing a lost in America then.

[SPEAKER_03]: You don't know the movie.

[SPEAKER_03]: You're not gonna get it.

[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, $22 for a chickity, a great one.

[SPEAKER_03]: So anyway, you lost.

[SPEAKER_03]: the chick at a egg.

[SPEAKER_03]: So here it is.

[SPEAKER_03]: I'm so very conservatively here.

[SPEAKER_03]: $2 for a chick at a lot.

[SPEAKER_03]: I'm trying to get my brother-in-law to watch lost in America.

[SPEAKER_03]: The old movie that still holds up where they drop out of society and then she loses all their money.

[SPEAKER_03]: It's very funny.

[SPEAKER_03]: So as soon as Carlos says that to me, I'm upstairs in the loft.

[SPEAKER_03]: And the law, which always manages to stay cool, comfortable, 89 degrees, no matter what the weather is outside.

[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, there's no like little ray caverns.

[SPEAKER_02]: It's always one temperature.

[SPEAKER_03]: It's the same temperature, and now consistently smells like a window for it all the time.

[SPEAKER_03]: Happy happy going crazy, happy birthday, baby.

[SPEAKER_03]: So she says this to me.

[SPEAKER_03]: I immediately go into the bathroom and grab a towel because my method of securing a bird is to throw a towel on it.

[SPEAKER_03]: And the best birds having none of it.

[SPEAKER_03]: So we have a cheap little recliner cloth chair where this room is.

[SPEAKER_03]: We've jammed a TV in there in our little tiny house and it rocks back and forth.

[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not skilled to get there.

[SPEAKER_03]: So can you get on that chair and throw the towel on the bird?

[SPEAKER_03]: So Carla is trying to place

[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, the towel.

[SPEAKER_03]: I said, no, you're not going to be able to play.

[SPEAKER_03]: Don't catch it.

[SPEAKER_03]: The bird's not going to go here, put that over my head, so I can't see.

[SPEAKER_03]: How big of a towel is it?

[SPEAKER_03]: It's a battle.

[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, so everybody said do it.

[SPEAKER_03]: So Carla, a tip says, no, Carla, you have to toss it.

[SPEAKER_03]: And as she tries to toss it, she loses her balance in my wife.

[SPEAKER_03]: She is going down and she's coming right towards me. [SPEAKER_03]: And then of course, who's fault is it? [SPEAKER_03]: It's me because I was being impatient. [SPEAKER_03]: I said, let's be impatient. [SPEAKER_03]: I was trying to get you the bird. [SPEAKER_03]: So we just leave the door open for the bird to escape. [SPEAKER_03]: And I come up and start doing the show halfway through the show. [SPEAKER_03]: She informs me the bird, you know, the idiot bird decided that it would stop banging its little bird brain up [SPEAKER_03]: I literally out the door that we, it literally was going. [SPEAKER_03]: It was horrible. [SPEAKER_03]: I hate this story. [SPEAKER_02]: Because I'm sitting there, and I'm watching this, and the bird's going. [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I don't know. [SPEAKER_03]: The bird's going, I'm picking. [SPEAKER_03]: I flew into a door, and I just was enjoying my freedom in Maine. [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, my God. [SPEAKER_03]: It's not bad enough. [SPEAKER_03]: I have to worry about Eagles and Ospreys and all these things. [SPEAKER_03]: But I'm where I just need. [SPEAKER_03]: I just was looking for seed. [SPEAKER_03]: I was looking for seeds, but I can't. [SPEAKER_03]: This man's throwing this, but I can't get out of my gut. [SPEAKER_02]: and it finally flew out to do it. [SPEAKER_02]: You might, you have two dogs. [SPEAKER_03]: How are they handling the fact that there's a burn in your house? [SPEAKER_03]: We remove them from that's their room. [SPEAKER_03]: That's the room. [SPEAKER_03]: Another room that smells great. [SPEAKER_03]: That's where the dogs hang out. [SPEAKER_03]: Okay. [SPEAKER_03]: All day long for 24 hours a day, the dogs go, to tiny little dogs that sound like this. [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, all day long doing this and then the bird flew out so it's a success success You know, I think the bird might be brain damage, but it doesn't matter because there's not that much brain anyone But I know you're right. [SPEAKER_04]: You're right about the cat [SPEAKER_03]: uh... the cat has been named uh... we have decided on a name for the cat thank you for your submissions uh... that uh... the the leader was buzz uh... i wasn't going to name the cat buzz but thank you for uh... for that in mike alston and rj ds for some reason uh... that was named and this is my cat and his favorite flavor of ice cream is vanilla [SPEAKER_03]: This cat, uh, we really, I really love to name things as you know. [SPEAKER_03]: I love that names. [SPEAKER_03]: I love giving people names. [SPEAKER_03]: I racked my brain. [SPEAKER_03]: I did the old thing I did with Winslow. [SPEAKER_03]: I looked up famous manners, people from the state of Maine. [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, man. [SPEAKER_03]: That's a, that's a, a very, very unrewarding task. [SPEAKER_03]: There are a lot of people up here. [SPEAKER_03]: Unleaving your thing. [SPEAKER_03]: I'm serious. [SPEAKER_04]: Well, boy, girl, we never, we never found them. [SPEAKER_04]: It's a boy. [SPEAKER_03]: It's a boy, a lot of people didn't know that. [SPEAKER_03]: So there were a lot of female names, too. [SPEAKER_03]: All right. [SPEAKER_03]: Tina, what's that? [SPEAKER_04]: What's that? [SPEAKER_04]: Tina, well, you could have called, oh, you can still can. [SPEAKER_04]: Yo, ho, yeah. [SPEAKER_03]: No, no. [SPEAKER_04]: This is my cat timbre.

[SPEAKER_04]: It's a gorgeous place to play. [SPEAKER_04]: The problem I have is why why is the population fleeing Maine and why do they have a bill in place where if you go to Maine They'll give you what is it $10,000 in tax incentives just as they're industry They've lost they've lost industry up here. [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, they're not jobs up here. [SPEAKER_03]: What's that? [SPEAKER_03]: What was the industry?
