    Hiss parents obviously figured out how to multiply, too.

    I suppose it’s inevitable that she will grade on a curve. But she’s flexible, too. (If dad’s so smart, why is he working as a plumber’s snake.)

    Q. How do you get adders to multiply?

    A. Put them on a log table!

    Glad one kid doesn’t find Math class too constrictive.

    Tirasmol: Not really. Adders are neurotoxic. Puff adders, more commonly nowadays, hog-nose snakes, are non-poisonous constrictors. Their puffing more closely resembles a cobra’s hood. If that bluff doesn’t work, they roll over and play dad; a poor act because if you roll them right-side-up, they will roll back over again because that is the position a dead snake should be in. A very valuable rodent control despite poor acting ability.
