I'm sorry, but I'm looking at the Wikipedia site and it doesn't have that paragraph on the death of the O RLY? owl. I doubt they threw it in and just quickly took it out. Downrate for liars.

Okay, first off, his name isn't Jonathan. It's Percy Johnstone. He lives in Issaquah, Washington with his wife, Erma, and their three owlets, Ace, Bethany, Earl, and Hambone. How do I know this? He works with my cousin at UPS.
