Why didn't they cut the legs off the bids before they made bird pie?

I like this quote:
If a person has ugly thoughts, it begins to show on the face. And when that person has ugly thoughts every day, every week, every year, the face gets uglier and uglier until it gets so ugly you can hardly bear to look at it.

A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.


I want to play with the monkeys. They look pretty cute.

The beginning reminded me a bit of the War of the Roses movie with Kathleen Turner and Michael Douglas. Man against himself if you will. Second half is a good illustration of man against nature. In both cases, as in real life, man is necessarily the loser.
