| COLUMBIA, SC—Gov. Mark Sanford spoke out Monday in
favor of changing his state's bird from the Carolina wren to
"anything else" following the ninth unprovoked wren attack this
year. "In light of last week's events, I strongly feel the wren is
no longer a good representative for the state of South Carolina,"
Sanford said, referring to Friday's tragic dive-bombing and pecking
incident at a Myrtle Beach preschool. "Maybe it's time we recognize
one of our more docile birds, like the robin or the magnolia
warbler." Sanford advised anyone hearing the wren's cries of
"tea-kettle, tea-kettle" to run for cover immediately.
