Beetles

1 Conversation

Sorry, this was the first thing it occured to me to talk about. I feel that there is a survival trait in beetles that doesn't get
enough attention - the abitlity to remain alive in shoes for up to seven hours (if you're wearing them, that is - the shoes,
not the beetles - if you're not wearing your shoes then I suppose the beetle can survive to the end of its natural life. And
your feet are dirty. Anyway, I digress ...). I suspect that the beetles are trying to enchance their chances of surviving a
nuclear holocaust still further by using shoes as a form of blast shelter (I said they were hardy, not intelligent).

It doesn't get any better than this, I'm afraid.
