4. We should not discriminate by species
Or number of legs.

Los cucarachas are entitled to defense tambien.

16. Precisely
It's the defenseless who most need defending.



Just as it's the friendless who most need friends.

And the homeless who most need homes.

And the spineless who most need spines.

And the hitless who most need hits — especially if it's the late innings with runners in scoring position.

And a toll is a toll, and a roll is a roll. And if we don't get no tolls, then we don't eat no rolls.



I made that up. :7

17. That is inspired
And a toll is a toll, and a roll is a roll. And if we don't get no tolls, then we don't eat no rolls.

I can't believe this. Ants never get no respect.

8. I totally respect the ants
They have a marvelous work ethic. :thumbsup:



I always wonder what they say, though, when they bump into each other. Is it mostly "Excuse me" or "Watch where your stupid exoskeleton is going"?

9. Should ant farms be banned?
Seems cruel to lock them up between two pieces of glass and force them to live in a two dimensional world. I don't think they are happy.

12. Hehe. Ever see "Joyeaux Noel"? The director states that the French actually
court-martialled and executed a cat for treason during WWI.

Anyway, they can always go on to fine careers as secret agents.
