LOL. That post was hilarious for some reason.

EDIT: I don't suppose a copy of this video exists anywhere anymore, does it? I would totally love to see it, because it sounds hilariously awesome. Exterminating pigeons sounds good enough on its own, but with your music on it? Surely that makes it a true collector's item!

Do you still have copies of the music at least? I must say, I'm rather curious as to what kind of music a training video would require... especially one with such an interesting choice of subject matter!

EDIT #2: I'm in a silly mood tonight, so I have to ask -- is pigeon extermination a lost art these days? It's not often you hear someone say "I had to call in a pigeon exterminator the other day." Maybe I should start an armadillo extermination company or something. It could be one of those things you don't know you need until you have it. After all, invention is the mother of necessity.
