My rendition was meant to be a travesty of that one, an "undead" parrot as a 
follow-up to Dennis' "lich" post. I'm sorry I forgot the smiley ;)

- He didn't move, that was just the wind stirring his plumage.
- No, that parrot is alive and kicking, fresh as a daisy, full of beans...
- Aren't the glass eyes beautiful?
- Glass eyes -- he just blinked!

And so on. I'm off to work on my laden swallow branch of Python. It's going 
to be a real heavy-weight...
