Answer is probably 'No,' still I wonder ...



Has there ever been an animal so cute and adorable that a predator decided not to eat it? (“Please? Look into my large, universally trusting eyes …”)

If time-travel were possible, and people could go back at the end of their lives to tell their younger selves a few things to do better, would history see an up-tick in college retention, volunteer work, voting, progressive political action, and environmental consciousness—alongside its increase in sexually-transmitted infections, skydiving, and world tourism?

When humans are no longer the premiere dictators of this natural world, will the next species up piece our practical wisdom and heroic stories back together, along with our bones and funny machines? (“And if you'll look to the left: this is called a Ferris wheel—they used to sit in these and spin around for amusement …”)

If women were in charge of social-political world affairs, would men still be allowed to go without shaving on weekends and wear comfortably ratty clothes outdoors?

Has anyone ever been wearing a really tight G-string, and farted so intensely that it played a note? (“Sally! Hurry up, we can still make it in line for free beers if {Blllrrrng} … What was tha?-eew!”)
