I think the "fully feathered" remark was in reference to the
Bougainvillea.
Ahh. Okay. I guess it's now no secret that I don't know much about
botany.

Now I wonder how many other funny gardening jokes have gone over my
head...
Fear not Peter. Post was ornithological, not botanical in nature - and yes,
it was painfully lame.
See, the prop overhears *fully feathered props* and thinks to itself,
"Feathers, cool! Fly prop, be free..." That the prop flew off into the bush
at the end of the runway to roost, well, that was just an added bonus g.
OK, now it's beyond lame...
As penance, I will unplug my computer and ship it to Alabama on Monday,
where it will be disassembled, piece by piece, by a manly low wing type.
