Driving Miss Daisy

Hey, what's up? Why are you still staring at my pens? And the smile, why? Am I so amusing to you?!?

You've got that slanting face and that sneering smile, and you're going to judge me? You're not exactly a Riace bronze statue, you know?

Parco Nevicati, Collecchio, Parma, Italy - 2012-12-02

With that belly sticking out of your sweatshirt that even your athletic top can't hide. Seriously, no Nike could cover that up!

So what about your face? You really need to break your routine. Too many spritzers, too many aperitifs, too many late nights, just too much of everything, you know?

You need a diet overhaul, or better yet, a total makeover, because you can't go on like this for long.

Stop swearing! And really, stop messing with your balls.

I'm saying this for your own good, because if you're healthy, then I'm healthy.

And when I'm well, all the oceans, lakes, mountains, plains, skies, and all the creatures on earth are well. So read the little story carefully and learn it by heart.

We're all children of the same mother. And mothers always respect and treat each other with respect. Always.

Squaraquack, human!
