Greig's Evolution

[Anne Kilmer]

Brilliant. 
Me, I believe in a Creator, but I suspect she isn't satisfied with our
current level of performance. Hence Windows 2000 and our friend the
engineer. 
For was it not an engineer who proved logically that a bumblebee is
unable to fly? 
Let us not, however, stray farther from our leps into the airy realms of
cosmology.
As I am currently speaking severely to said Creator about the notion
that we might make up for a year of drought ... now, this weekend ... in
Florida, I would like to add that I mean no disrespect.
