HEADLESS AND POINTLESS EXPERIMENTATION
Back in the day I was one of those evil vivisectionists.

I was studying the effects of neurotransmitters on aggression in the ringdove (streptopelia risoria). I used to have to cut the heads of the poor little critters before dissecting their brains (believe it or not the fastest and least cruel way of killing them - ask any pigeon fancier for collaboration of this). Their wings used to flap a lot once the head was removed.

Three years later I was able to get a PhD for explaining why doves can't fly once their heads were cut off.

They can't see where they are going.

Edit: Re malapropist error pointed out below - he's right. Mea culpe. Last time I post something here drunk.

You have a PhD
but don't know the difference between collaborate and corroborate? Dear me.
