“We all will, sooner or later. Except Walt and Skeezix. They’ll live forever. Eons from now, when the sun goes dark and Earth is a scorched husk, all that will remain of humanity will be Lazarus Long, Dana Scully, Walt Wallet and Skeezix Wallet. They’ll carve the image of a birthday cake into the regolith, sing ‘Happy Birthday,’ and wait for the stars to go out…”
By-the-way, that gland he is speaking of is the pineal. Very important to us. At one point early on some thought it might be a preternatural eye to see into the invisible. Lovecraft wrote a short story on that possibility called “From Beyond” which became an interesting movie. Though it must be said that the majority of reality is unseen by our limited vision.

One suspects that Ruthie thinks she has cicadas in her brain. And she just may well have them indeed.
