Ant, have you heard this good one, I read it somewhere lately:
"Even the sharpest ear cannot hear an ant singing." - Sudanese saying
:-)
"There's nothing on it worthwhile, we're not going to watch it in this
household, and I don't want it in your intellectual diet.".
-attributed to Philo T. Farnsworth, by his children
