4.  Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore."
Much I marvelled this ungainly fowl to hear discourse so plainly,
Though its answer little meaning- little relevancy bore;
For we cannot help agreeing that no living human being
Ever yet was blest with seeing bird above his chamber door-
Bird or beast upon the sculptured bust above his chamber door,
With such name as "Nevermore."

7. I'll never forget the day NPR read that poem on Poe's birthday
Just as it ended, i turned onto the street in front of my house, and there was a raven, sitting in the middle of the road, watching me, as though he were about to speak...

I think it was Ray Lewis.

12. My childhood piano teacher had a parrot ...
... that used to yell out "Lenore! Lenore!" during my lesson (that was the piano teacher's name).

It always reminded me of the Raven poem.

Friggin' bird! No wonder I can't play the piano to this day (that, and I had no discipline or talent!).

Oh yeah, and my teacher's toy poodle used to bite my ankles during my lesson, too. Moral: Don't take piano lessons in the zoo.

13. I had to kick this one
Some of the funniest posts I've seen in a long time.

Kick for the sleepyheads who didn't get a chance to see this.

:kick:
