The crows just outside the door just cawed "shave and a haircut" at each other.

No, really.

And then they laughed about it.

Crows are weird.

Shave and a haircut... to go!

"To go"? Not "two bits"? Is this some difference between American and English expressions?

[ex-casteylan314.livejournal.com]

I have no idea what "two bits" means, so probably, yes. :)

"Two bits" is slang for a 25-cent piece, originating in coins that were broken into 8 "bits".

The mockingbirds that lived outside my apartment complex in LA used to regularly imitate car alarms. At that time (early 90s) I firmly maintained that the car alarm was the official CA state bird.

I firmly maintained that the car alarm was the official CA state bird.

And the state flower is the concrete cloverleaf.

(actually that's stolen from a quote about the national flower...)
