To Kill a Seagull

I was reading about how the city of Chicago has hired a crack team of Border Collies to chase seagulls off the beaches. Apparently the droppings spread ecoli, so thats not too good. But since my parents own a border collie, I got a kick out of some of the things that they stated in it. Like "the birds will get tired of it before the dogs" and "this breed works tiredlessly to satisfy their human counterparts." They are quite crazy dogs when it comes to their jobs. If only we could get our collie to do something profitable (like the $6,000 these 10 dogs are getting for clearing the beach for the summer). At the very least I bet it'd be pretty entertaining to watch.
