It was a bad idea to mention road kill as “a virtually untapped source of quality fly tying materials”. It’s risky enough pulling a barely controllable broadslide in traffic – what with the risk to life and limb coupled with all the cell phone calls I interrupt …

Monkey is enough to make me perk up as I whizz by – but a couple of brightly colored stiffy parrots would induce a panic stop.
