The Thinker

The following is essentially a word-for-word transcript of my conversation with Garrett on the way home from the hardware store this evening.

G:"What do cobras eat?"

B:"All sorts of stuff."

G:"Do they eat bananas?"

B:"No, I think they only eat animals."

G:"Would they eat a fish?"

B:"They might, but I doubt they'd find many fish in the desert."

G:"I'm going to take a dead fish out into the middle of the desert and throw it at the cobra to see if it will eat it."

B:"I think they like their animals alive when they eat them."

G:"Hmm."
