Creation and Usage Notes

I no longer remember the origin of the joke, but somehow Nina and I came up with this running gag having to do with Væyne Zaanics and this pigeon. I used the pigeon in all the language examples at the beginning, and she managed to work the pigeon into the story. lol I've looked upon pigeons fondly ever since.
