To bee or not to bee…

Our fat society continues to live wastefully and pollute the earth. Seems that we are beginning to pay the price in ways we never thought possible.

As an example, bees are disappearing all over the country – those tiny, under-appreciated pollinators of the U.S.’s immense agricultural bounty, which was once thought to be inexhaustible. I find a lot of dark humor in the fact that our obese nation’s food supply may now be threatened. We Americans are beginning to acknowledge our dependence on small, fuzzy flying insects. Only now it’s too late.

It’s like a story of two college roommates – one does all the shopping, cleaning, cooking, etc. while the other one sits on the sofa all day watching TV, farting, burping and making a huge mess, all the while reaping the benefits of the other one. One day, the industrious roommate just up and says f*** you and then leaves. The fat one can only lie there crying and slowly starving to death. By the time the fat one realizes he needs to apologize, the other roommate’s already in Buenos Aires and never coming back.
