Only the Strong Survive...

  As if in some replication of nature I recently witnessed a real life display of natural selection being played out before my eyes.

  A certain man, recently released back in to the world after a self imposed hiatus but who shall remain nameless for his sake, approached the bar to obtain a drink. Just as in nature where only the strong survive, the strong located within the bar receive service promptly, while the weak will flail and struggle just to maintain bar position, knowing all the time that service is only a dream and will not come until all the strong have been satisfied. Clearly being one of the weak, this certain unnamed man held his position at the bar for an astounding amount of time. All the while the strong were being served to his left and his right, but he held his ground, knowing the longer he waited the greater his chance of service or if in nature; survival. Minutes passed and still no service, surely it was his turn, surely he had proven after 15 minutes of waiting that he too was one of the strong. Unfortunately though mother nature cannot be fooled, this was not his time, for he soon grew weak, lost bar position and eventually returned to his pack defeated, humiliated and above all else........thirsty.

  Who are we to question natural selection? Do not question this natural occurrence, just accept it and be thankful the next time you get served at the bar.....for you are one of the strong.
