~  So Noah is waiting by his ark.
Waiting for all the animals that God has promised will
squeeze into the boat that he's built.
And then he sees them.
Great numbers of beasts all converging on where he's
standing.
So he lowers the gang-plank, and watches as the
animals start filing on board, two-by-two.
And as they go into the ship, Noah can be heard passing
comments on each animal that goes by -
"Hmmm... two horses," he says, "they don't taste very
nice, but they're edible," and "Ooh! Two sheep.
I love roast lamb". And so it goes on, for each pair of
animals, Noah counts going on board, he says
something about what they're like to eat.
Eventually Noah's son can stand it no longer, and he
goes to his mother to ask why.
She answers: "Well, there's Noah counting for taste."
To which the son replies: "Now I've herd everything."

When it's a question of money, everybody is of the

Rae's trivia.....
 The female Adelie penguin, desperate to obtain the
stones she uses to build her nest, visits the nest of a
bachelor Adelie, goes through the entire courtship
routine, and mates with him.
But once the two have had sex, the female collects the
stones she came for as a sort of payment, and waddles
back home to her actual mate, who’s been keeping the
nest nice and warm for her return!
She then stays with him for the rest of her life.
Sometimes, especially cunning females engage in the
courtship ritual, minus the mating part, grab the rocks,
and dash home.
 Luckily, the males of this species, unlike humans,
do not seem to bear a grudge.
