   Well, yeah, the idea that males are expendable, which is widespread throughout nature, is a bit unsettling. The drone bee (workers, all female, wouldn’t be caught dead in that bar) is waiting his turn to commiserate, probably to lament that the whole hive was calling him a half-wit (male bees are haploid) and a lazy no-account (they don’t work). This one can’t have mated yet, they don’t survive the experience. And, oh, drones don’t have stingers.

   Like wow. It’s like, y’know, like all these ‘congresscritters’ elected themselves, yeah? If we want to be ruled by a pack of people over whom we have neither power nor responsibility, why don’t we just go ahead and install a king – sorry, queen – , a royal court, and a hierarchy of nobles, and get this ridiculous ‘democracy’ rubbish the hell over with?

   Thank you, Wiley, but I can claim no special powers. The search string “non sequitur gretel” called it right up.

   12 August 2012. Tofu oats? Since, by all rights, Joe should be reading this story to his grandkids by now, I wonder if Danae and Lucy have stumbled into Jack’s imagination again.
