Quentin Tarantino

Tarantino, who's name is Italian for 'little spider,' is an American film director who sometimes puts himself in his films a tradition that he started during his first film, 'Reservoir Dogs' when he replaced Sir Ian McKellan who walked off the set after refusing to utter what became the movie's most famous line, when Mr. Pink says 'let's go to the reservoir, Rover!'

Tarantino later became a very political director, notably with his anti-Clinton polemic Kill Bill parts 1 and 2 starring Uma Thurman as Hilary. This made him enormously popular in Bush's America and earned him a place on the White House Staff where he wrote most of Bush's most memorable speeches.

Tarantino has, since the election of Barak Obama, become a recluse after retiring to his Alabama ranch and pledging never again to make another movie.

Bombay Shitehawk

The most famous Indian bird, the Bombay Shitehawk is famous for its voracious appetite. It is normally a timid and solitary little bird but if unable to find sufficient carrion it has been known to band together with other shitehawks to attack and eat cats, small dogs, baby elephants and, occassionally, human children. The government in New Dehli is considering whether to order a cull of the birds but faces opposition from the people of Mumbai (as Bombay is now called) who believe that if the shitehawk were ever to leave the town then a great disaster will befall the nation, a superstition which they decided to copy from the Tower of London after reading about it in a travel guide.
