About

This is for me and for my friends. I talk about things and then promise I'll send a link to it. And of course I forget. Or worse I recall I was going to send a link to someone, but I forget to whom. So I'm now posting it all here :) So you all can find it, and I can no longer worry if I forget to send it!

The crow vending machine

Crows are common, we’ve all seen them. Well, since watching this I have never seen them in quite the same way.

The vending machine doesn’t sell crows, it sells to crows. They buy food from it.

If you are pushed for time start watching at 3:20 for half a minute.
