Danny Donkey went to the park.
A woman approached him.
HELP SAVE OUR TRAIN, SIR. IT'S FOR THE CHILDREN.
Danny Donkey looked up and saw a miniature steam train in disrepair.
I will save your train, said Danny Donkey.
And Danny Donkey spent all his money and fixed the train.
And on the day of the re-opening, everyone cheered the shiny new train.
And watched as it departed the new station and rolled down its track.
Which now led out of the park.
And straight to the liquor store.
I HAVE BUILT THE WORLD'S MOST CONVENIENT BEER RUN, shouted Danny.

HEY THERE, GOAT... COME WATCH TV WITH US.
NO THANKS. I HAVE A BOOK TO READ.
WHAT BOOK?
IT'S ON NATURAL SELECTION. IT EXPLAINS HOW A CHANGE THAT BETTER EQUIPS AN ANIMAL TO LIVE GETS PASSED ON TO ITS DESCENDANTS, THEREBY ALTERING THE SPECIES FOREVER.
I'M SORRY... DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT THAT MEANS?
THAT MY KIDS WILL HAVE PILLOWS FOR BUTTS.
NO.
AND A REMOTE CONTROL FOR A HAND?
AND CHEESE POOFS FOR FEET?

PLEASE SIT DOWN, PIG.

WILL THERE BE MUSIC AT YOUR FRINGE PARTY?

I'VE CONCLUDED THAT I'M NOT VERY ARROGANT.
HOW'D YOU REACH THAT CONCLUSION?
BY USING MY GINORMOUS BRAIN.
NEVER MIND.
I'D BE A LOT MORE HUMBLE IF I HAD A REASON TO BE.

HOW COME AFTER A HOLIDAY WITH MY FAMILY, I ALWAYS FEEL WORSE ABOUT MYSELF?
OH, PIG, I'M SURE THEY DON'T MEAN TO DO THAT... THEY PROBABLY JUST--
BECAUSE LIFE IS LIKE ATTENDING A FOOTBALL GAME. YOUR FRIENDS ARE THE ONES YOU GO TO THE GAME WITH. YOUR FAMILY ARE THE WEIRDOS YOU FIND SITTING AROUND YOU.
SO THOSE ARE THE FAT PEOPLE THROWING BON BONS AT ME?
PIG, THAT'S NOT--
YEAH. SO BLOW THIS IN THEIR FACE.

I DENY EVERYTHING.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING, GOAT?
I'M PUTTING TOGETHER A BOOK OF FAMOUS WATERWAYS, BUT I'M HAVING TROUBLE GETTING GOOD SHOTS OF THE BERING STRAIT.
NO ONE HAS ANY GOOD PHOTOS?
WELL, THIS ONE PHOTO-COLLECTING GEEK HAS OFFERED TO EMAIL ME SOME, BUT THEY'RE ALL GIFS, AND I LIKE JPGs.
WHAT ARE THOSE?
THEY'RE JUST DIFFERENT WAYS TO COMPRESS IMAGES ON THE WEB. I LIKE THE COLOUR IN JPGs BETTER, SO I WANT TO BE CAREFUL TO NOT USE ANY GIFs.
I GUESS THAT'S WHY YOU HEAR THE WARNING.
WHAT WARNING?
BEWARE OF GEEKS' BERING GIFs.
IT HAD TO BE DONE.

DO YOU THINK EACH OF US HAS FREE WILL?
NO. ONLY SOME OF US.
WHY DO YOU SAY THAT?
BECAUSE NOT EVERYONE BOUGHT THE DVD.
FREE WILL, NOT "FREE WILLY."
OH, GREAT. IS THAT SOME BORING RE-MAKE?

EXCUSE ME, EVERYONE... I HAVE AN ANNOUNCEMENT TO MAKE... I JUST GOT BACK FROM THAT NEW CAFE DOWNTOWN. THEY HAD THREE DIFFERENT SIZES OF COFFEE CUPS. AND THEY HAD LIDS.
SO WHAT, PIG? EVERY COFFEE PLACE HAS LIDS.
THE SAME LID FIT ALL THREE CUPS!!
THIS IS WHY WE SHOULD LOCK HIM IN HIS ROOM.
HAS THE NOBEL PRIZE EVER BEEN SUCH A LOCK?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING, RAT?
I HAVE MOVED TO AN ISLAND.
WHAT FOR?
TO FOREVER SEPARATE MYSELF FROM THIS WORLD THAT I HATE. SO GOODBYE, GOOD FRIEND, UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN IN A BETTER PLACE.
STUPID TIDE.

GOSH, THIS BOOK ON CHARLES DARWIN IS GREAT...! IT GETS PAST ALL THE CONTROVERSY SURROUNDING HIS THEORY OF NATURAL SELECTION AND JUST EXPLAINS IT.
WHAT'S NATURAL SELECTION?
IT'S WHEN A MAN CHOOSES TO BE WITH A WOMAN WHO DOES NOT HAVE SURGICALLY ENHANCED TA-TAS.
NO WONDER IT'S CONTROVERSIAL.
IT'S A VERY TOUGH CHOICE.
STOP!!
