Skip's Blips

By Skip

Hmmmm...

I wonder if that seed over there is tastier than the one in my beak?

That's what I imagine is running through the brain of this little titmouse. It reminds me of the old fable by Aesop of the dog and the bone. The bone he saw in his reflection in the water looked bigger and tastier than the one he had in his mouth, and... Do you remember the rest of the fable? It was a good lesson on greed. It seems to me there is a lot of greed showing up in our news broadcasts these days. I guess there is truly nothing new under the sun.
