How surprising! I’ve heard of a strange story in lady’s club. That’s a gentleman talking about food. It’s like this. There is not enough food in the world for everybody. Really, more than half the people are hungry. Do you know? When they get more food they have more babies. What a surprise! At this time, one of the ladies got up and said, “well, why don’t we find them and stop them?”
