As he wiped the guano from his face he contemplated the meaning of existence until he saw the birds making their way back to his location.

Meanwhile the gigantic box was attracting some attention from the passers by.

"What could be in it?" wondered some although the noise coming from the box made others wonder why they were sticking around to find out.

But more and more people gathered around the box observing its curious shaking movements.

And there on the vast alluvial plain, with hundreds of thousands of water fowl arriving, countless curious onlookers gathering, and a single ill-tempered Canadian disgustedly swishing with Listerine, the gigantic green box richly ornamented with rose colored violets burst open and out stepped a magnificent, jewel-encrusted, implausibly gigantic armadillo. Go figure.
Uhhhh...
"What year is it?" asked the giant armadillo.

The crowd was still staring in amazement, when suddenly a woman planted herself in front of the stately creature and asked indignantly:"Where have you been all this time?"

"Martha!" the creature said with tears in his eyes.

But brandishing her gigantic broom, buxom Martha was in no way amenable;" We´re going home at once!", she said.

And off they went, leaving behind them several hundred thousand migratory water fowl and one very pissed-off Canadian.
Uhhhh...
As the Canadian shooed birds off of his head and arms only to find new fowl try to land and occupy parts of his body, he realized that all this activity was making him hungry.

Hungry and angry! For here he was fighting off petty birds, while the great Revolution was waiting for him somewhere!

Something needs to be done and it needs to be done right away,thought the ill-tempered Canadian, but he couldn't for the life of him think of what it was that needed doing, so he just wandered off in the general direction of the gigantic jewel-encrusted armadillo and Martha.
Uhhhh...
Wondering and wandering made him bypass Martha and the Armadillo without even speaking, right before he fell into a hidden crevice.
Some of us laugh
Some of us cry
Some of us smoke
Some of us lie
But it's all just the way
that we cope with our lives...
Martha and the Armadillo heard him fall and called down the deep crevice, "Are you alright?"
