Everyone seems to think the rabbit was wisest because he mocked the pineapple when challenged to a race. I disagree. The rabbit agreed to run a Twenty-six mile race against a plant with no means of locomotion.
After two hours of hard running he discovered the pineapple hadn't even moved from the starting line and had been eaten by the other animals. Seems like an awful waste of energy to me and he didn't even get a decent meal out of it.

Pineapple, figs and mulberries all belong to this group

Oddly enough this weekend I was talking to my father in law who's from Equador. He was telling me that in Equador he was taking Calculus when he was in school. Before he got to high school. As a country we are so screwed.
