evils of drink...

there are these bushes in my backyard with large red berries which ripen and ferment.  robins love them...sometimes to much.  robins like to skim over things when flying, bear that in mind.   so this robin was snacking on the berries and, having his fill, decided to fly  up and over the garage roof as usual.  down from the shed he goes, skimming over the grass and then a vertical swoop over the roof.  except he was 3 inches off and nailed the bottom of the gutter with his head BANG!  flat-spin to a foot above the ground and a crazed flutter to the ash tree where he sat weaving sided to side for 5 minutes.  the next time i saw him he flew AROUND the garage!
