Some interesting historical points.
RE "Although Alex Jones is a quack, even a stopped clock is right once a day":
Since most clocks have a 12-hour face, a stopped clock is right twice a day (irrespective of who Alex Jones is or what his/her opinions might be).
RE "Birds of a feather. You don't see birds hanging out with lions or snakes. They hang out with other birds."
Except for those birds (and other animals) which have a symbiotic relationship with other animals, in most cases to rid same of parasites and thereby also gain a meal.
(Nature is replete with such mutually beneficial relationships.)
