The bald eagle's wife was tired of hearing about Rogaine®. Earlier, she caught him stealing worried glances of white feathers in the rear-view mirror of some tourist's RV. She realized with regret that his dignified profile did not denote wisdom. And now, with his wings spread and the shiny metal cylinder clutched tightly in his talons, he's bringing the problem home. Her husband is not only a narcissist; he's a thief. She will ask for the aerie in the divorce.

The Rogaine using bald eagel is a funny concept, followed by a zany story. We can only hope the Rogaine works, otherwise our national bird will be flying around with a hat on.
An eagle fretting about losing his plumage is hilarious. It seems that recession worries are everywhere. And now that the dollar is tanking, we can only hope that our beloved national symbol doesn't lose his modeling job on the back of the buck. Then his marriage and career will have vanished with his feathers.
He should have tried a comb-over!
Nice six, Linda. I like the word "aerie."
