Form is nothing without content.
Content is nothing without meaning.
Meaning is nothing without coleslaw.

Coleslaw is nothing without Hellmann's and paprika.

And the mayonaise was without form, and void; and darkness moved on the face
of the picnic table.
And Mom said "Let There Be Lunch." And there was lunch; and it was good.

Didn't she do anything about those black ants crawling around on the picnic
table first? Or was the lunch for them....

On the east coast, they occasionally see an awesome emerald-green flash
of light as the sun is just starting to rise above the open ocean in
the morning. (Caused by some odd optical effect when the atmosphere's
just right for it.)
Do they have that out on the west coast, too?

No. The emerald light is actually caused by a large Edie's ice-cream deposit
offshore, which clearly does not exist on the West Coast.

The mother *was* an ant; ants always serve coleslaw.
It's a matter of form flowing from function.

I thought ants showed up at all picnics, whether or not coleslaw was present

Well, they do--they're very social. But they always serve coleslaw,
even if it's just them eating amongst themselves.

No, insects. Count the legs as you pull them off.....1..2..3...4..5...6!

Hmm, what do you do to make invisible ink visible again? Hot iron?

I've heard you can coat it in the blood of a black cat killed in a haunted
cemetary on Friday the 13th if it's the last month of a decade. But I wouldn't
try it. Too messy for my tastes.

Today is NOW.
But your experience may vary. Offer not good where regulated, taxed,
exorcised, or subject to bottle depot fees.

That would require a 10th level neutral or evil cleric.
But to be safe, you might want to sprinkle holy water on your computer.
And stock up on shotgun shells, too.

A common mis-understanding - you'll just end up with pergatory water.
Holy water can only be made by distilling certain free-roll baby swiss
cheeses.
