05.29.2007 :: Kiwis want to fly too!


I love this little video. The kiwi is so determined to fly that it goes about nailing trees to the side of a mountain all to gain the illusion of flying. Does the kiwi die in the end? Did he die in vain? Or did he die happy with the wind soaring through his feathers? Or did he land softly in a field? Or a lake?
The music sure is beautiful though. Thanks little kiwi!

I think he was happy and his little birdy brain couldn't think that far into the future. Someone's got to think about these things,

There are really alot of ways to interpret that video. Very thought-provoking.

That was so cute. I like to think of him gliding gracefully to a stop at the bottom.

Dear Sandy
I've been thinking about you and wanted you to know that...just that. Damn the poor kiwi anyway...well, I don't mean that but, you know, I'm just thinking about you.
