Pig: I can't believe that little mosquito has been encased in that amber for sixty millions years. Goat: It's strange, huh? Pig: Yeah. And he's been totally preserved. Goat: That's true. Probably doesn't look much different than he has then. Pig: So being fossilized like that in tree resin is a bit like being immortalized. You're pretty much guaranteed to be around forever. Rat: One step ahead of you. Goat: You can't breathe in resin. Rat: Who cares about breathing when you can be immortal? Pig: Would it be wrong to go through his wallet?
Go for it, Pig!We are blessed!Rat will not be annoying us for the next 60000000 years, at least! We are saved! Amber has done us a big, big favor!
