Unable to work the navigation equipment correctly, the dumb ants sailed aimlessly for days eventually ending up 500 miles from their destination. Upon arriving to the already inhabited "New World," they placed a flag in the ground and proclaimed it theirs. One day a group of Wapanoag grasshoppers saw that the ants weren't doing so well. Some had died in the bitter cold and others were starving. The ... |

| Posted by Zansman On 08/24/2000 11:01 AM EDT with 3 comments Unknown | ? | ? A little "red-meat" humor for everyone: For years, Aesop's fables have been used to teach such virtues as hard work,personal responsibility, kindness, honesty, etc. In spite of the many positive contributions to society made by the development of these virtues,it is considered politically incorrect to attempt to instill these virtues in children today. To be politically correct, one must be more concerned with such concepts as "self-esteem", "tolerance", and "fairness". Therefore, many of Aesop's fables should be updated. Here is one such fable and a more enlightened version of the story. Subject: The Ant and the Grasshopper The Orignal Unenlightened ... |

Now, all through the summer season the industrious little ant worked from early morning until way past dark storing up supplied for the winter. Come rain or shine or heat wave, the little ant just kept on working and not paying much attention to the grasshoppers, since they would only ridicule him for working so hard that he had little time for entertainment. Most of the time they would only laugh at him and call him a fool, or greedy, or self righteous. When ... |

Remember? The ants worked hard all summer, making preparations for the winter they knew was coming. By contrast, the grasshopper lolled in the sunshine, making no preparations for his future, exemplifying the attitude that "The world owes me a living." Everyone who has heard the story, of course, has gotten the clear message. All have applauded the working ants and looked down on the grasshopper's indolence and irresponsibility. But that was "yesterday." "Today," would the ants win a moral popularity contest -- or ... |
