Canceled Flight: 101 Tried and True Pigeon Killin' Methods

this book is the funniest thing iv seen in a log time, i seriously could not put it down. The art is incredible, and both the artisits and author show an incredible imagination. Now for the people who say it is horrible, you are tree hugging hippies with no sence of humor. Come on its supposed to be funny and if you dont get it then dont review it, i bet you havn't even read the book. Have fun with your boring lives, ill be out killin me some pigeons :-D

This is a bizarre, fun, crazy, mind-bending collection of artwork. If you love animals: don't worry! I do too! I'm a vegetarian, I love birds, I would never wish harm upon any living creature. But this book is not to be taken literally! Aesthetically interesting, never dull, and always a great conversation piece. If you find the theme unsettling, you haven't done your research. This is NOT a book instructing or condoning the killing of ANYTHING...in fact, a large number of the "killing methods" provided would be impossible, expensive, or illigal to carry out. If you possess a slightly macabre sense of humor, or simply delight in oddball 'what-if' topics, this is the book for you. It has given me hours of entertainment and I believe that I have a greater respect for pigeons having explored this book.

The scholarship evident in this masterful survey bespeaks a thorough understanding of pigeon pathology. I somewhat regret the levity with which the author treats our persistant struggle against this constantly evolving public menace, but on the whole, myriad fail-proof approaches were thoughtfully presented. For the do-it-yourselfer, this well illustrated reference provides a clear methodology for various eradication procedures that will benefit humankind. Only by sticking together and pooling our resources can we foster the dream of a pigeon-free environment, if not for ourselves, than for our progeny.

As evidenced by the other posted reviews, America has lost its collective sense of humor. "Canceled Flight" is a hilarious collection of top illustrators and photographers, merely using the comical demise of pigeons as a unifying device. Anyone who thinks that this book is some sort of "Anarchists Cookbook" for animal haters is a self-absorbed idiot who takes themselves far too seriously, and I only hope they are so busy writing bad reviews that they don't have any time left to procreate. Not only is this book irreverent and visually stunning, it serves as an abrasive presence in the lives of the politically correct. I can think of no better reason to buy it.
