Heh, revenge! *cackle*
I am 100% sure i am going to heaven.
I'm not sure, there's only one way to find out... I tell you guys when I get back... Reencarnation is soughta crappy, the birds don't really know that they're dumping on people or that its fun, I don't like the idea of going down to an undeveloped mind...

How can you call a bird's mind undeveloped? You should see my parrot! She's just as intelligent as a human would be at her age. Besides, I'd rather be a bird because it'd mean freedom. And maybe an "undeveloped mind" isn't so bad. No money, boyfriend, work, college troubles. Just the next meal to think about.
Well you can teach a parrot to say "hello", you could probably tech it when to say "hello" but the parrot wont understand what "hello" means... Sure you'll have no problems being a bird, I just prefer my ability to think....
Tru that, maybe the parrot thinks its just a noise, but the fact its able to mimic the sound is quite intriguing
You guys aint heard of Lirebirds then I presume. They're a native bird of Australia and are called Lirebirds because they have an incredible ability to mimic an incrediblay wide range of sounds. This includes everything from the sound of a car driving past, the laughter of school children to the sound of a baby crying.
I'm not convinced that the ability to mimic is a sign of intelligence or a sign of how developed a mind is, but I do think human's understanding of brain development and ability in animals still has a massive way to go.
Personaly if I beleived in re-incarnation i would like to come back as a dolphin, hawk or wolf. partly influenced by the books I read, but i find all those animals facinating.
Wolf would be cool.
My Maki's an intelligent bird as any! She's learnt that we speak when the phone rings, and now she 'rings' when we come into the room :D
lol Makibird. Friends of mine had a Budgie that they could teach songs. he would only ever remember one song at a time, so it went through things like the James Bond Theme, Six Million Dollar Man, Bonanza, etc.
