Turn towards home, and go there. Many overs, over woods and fields, streams and hills, many overs. Just turn towards home. How else would one go there? Perhaps it was a dream, and you have awakened from it. May the earth rise up beneath you, with home in your heart, and your person waiting.

:roll: What does pigs have to do with birds !!! I could understand the name if it had little pig toys on it , but it doesn't . What to name a bird toy does not seem like a hard job #-o . Must not require much common sense #-o

I thought the same thing you did and tried to zoom in and find a pig on that toy somewhere. I think it's because the toys are made in china. ;) The names end up being hilariously nonsensical . :))

I can just imagine a tiny little pig in a pink tutu swinging on the thing.

Miss Piggy would love it, tee hee hee...

Lost in translation-for sure. I had a Tshirt from Japan that said: Now We Being Lady Cuties???? Loved that shirt! I think someone was trying to translate some kind of Japanese slang like hot mamma. Who knows?
