Greg vs. the Pigeons

Every great character in every story has a nemesis. Luke has Vader, Ripley has the Aliens, Batman has Joker, King Arthur has the Killer Rabbit...

This summer, a new conflict was born. One that spans the test of time and reaches beyond the stars...

Greg versus the Pigeons!

For three whole weeks, Greg and these flying rodents have been fighting it out. Bitter hatred spills from Greg, as he tries to kick them, and the birds take pleasure in hunting him and crapping on him. Not once but thrice. They dive bomb him, they get too close, and that stare! They generally terrify him.

But what has our Hero done to deserve this pointed abuse? It all started one sunny day in Lisbon, when climbing a steep street, Greg stepped on a dead pigeon. Stepped right in it! Well, we think the pigeon was dead. It certainly is now!

Anyway, this one indiscriminate act lead to the aggression and hatred we see today.

The Battle goes on. Just ask Greg...
