"How did that proverb go, the one that Nanny singsonged to her years ago, in the nursery?

"Born without warning,
Woe without warning;
Afternoon child,
Woeful and wild;
Born in the evening,
Woe ends in grieving.
Night baby borning
Same as the morning.

"But she remembered this as a joke, fondly. Woe is the natural end of life, yet we go on having babies.
"No, said Nanny, an echo in Melena's mind (and editorializing as usual): No, no, you pretty little pampered hussy. We DON'T go on having babies, that's quite apparent. We only have babies when we're young enough not to know how grim life turns out. Once we really get to the full measure of it- we're slow learners, we women- we dry up in disgust and sensibly halt production.
"But men, don't dry up, Melena objected; they can father to the death.
"Ah, we're slow learners, Nanny countered. But THEY can't learn at all."

oh my gosh...i adore hummus and whole wheat pita bread. not only does it taste really, really good, but it's also super good for me and it makes me feel better about gorging on it. especially if the hummus is organic and has garlic in it, which cleans out your system! mmmm... the wonders of people addicted to your health that will figure out your diets FOR YOU! wwwwoooooooooooohooooooooooooo!
