Gideon's New EPA Guidelines

Well,the EPA has done its job. In the last 15 years in the US,only one species has become extinct.But I believe it is time for the EPA to change its guidelines, and,to whit, I propose the following changes:

  • Anything that is an insect or arachnid doesn't get to be on the endangered list
  • Anything that is a rodent doesn't get to be on the endangered list
  • For the purposes of these guidelines, pigeons are categorized as insects
  • For the purposes of these guidelines, deer are categorized as rodents
  • If it tastes like chicken it doesn't get to be on the endangered list
  • If it is a subspecies named after a geographical area smaller than New York's Central Park, it doesn't get to be on the endangered list
  • If its habitat includes an area obstructing the new garage,shed, swimming pool or gokart track I'm wanting to construct,it doesn't get to be on the endangered list

This is just a start.I'm hoping the federal government acts quickly and endorses these guidelines.

  • I would go farther.  If it can breed with other subspecies, it does not go on the list.

    Shovelheat: I used to love Horny Toads! We'd catch them all the time (and they'd spit at us). I had forgotten about those!

    Funny, I'd always considered pigeons to be rodents with wings. Same with seagulls.

    Pigeons, starlings, grackles, cockroaches.....
    Same difference.

    Here, we call deer "rats with antlers".

    Funny post.
