Free Range by Bill Whitehead for June 22, 2024

“Nature” is nothing to “trifle” with.

The bird will now eat the bee.

Birds will crap on your car and bees will sting you.

You have to be very careful with the birds and the bees.

Time to talk about flighty promiscuity and the hive mind.

Don’t throw rocks at the birds, son and stay away from the bees!

“Birds do it, Bees do it. Lets call the whole thing off.”

Son won’t like it either to hear what daddy will to tell him.

That bird is about to eat that bee. And that is the real story dad should be telling sonny.

Son, let me explain where bird eggs come from.

“You see, son, it was a hit song by Jewel Akens.”

If the first talk isn’t productive, perhaps the second will be reproductive.

It means they are on to you.

" Let me tell you about the birds , and the bees and the flowers and the trees, the moon up above …" Dean Martin

It’s good if you do it right.

My Dad’s version of the “birds and bees” talk: “Don’t sit under the former or on top of the latter.”
