[Publib] Be a Lantern, not a parrot

[MichaelMay.59213074 at bloglines.com]

Donald, did you write this? I tried to verify its authenticity, but all I
could find was this:

"PARROT LANTERN! Parrots outside may not be safe,
but this one is guaranteed not to fly away. Put him on the porch or in your
yard and enjoy the soft glow coming right from his heart! Beautiful hand blown
glass body, with hand painted metal accents. This lantern will highlight your
birditude and the charm of your yard!"
