Welcome, video enthusiasts and pigeon haters!

Amy's video about deterring pigeons using a motion-activated sprinkler has gone viral! It's been all over the place, from break.com to digg.com to collegehumor.com to ebaumsworld.com and on and on. Woohoo!

If you're wondering where to get the sprinkler in the video, it's called a ScareCrow, and it's made by a company called Contech. Their web site is http://www.scatmat.com, and they sell a number of products for dealing with garden pests and badly behaved pets. We love it that they give us a humane way to let the animals know we don't always appreciate their company.

OK, here's the deal, y'all: If iTunes and Podcast Alley had such a thing, we would have filed our show under "Chick Stuff" or "Women's Entertainment." This isn't just comedy; it isn't just a travelogue; and we definitely aren't heavy hitters in the political arena. We're just two sisters with an extensive background in laughing about life. And we live on opposite sides of the North American continent. Maybe if we still lived in the same town, we wouldn't have taken up podcasting, but things being the way they are -- we had to.
