a mosaic of text characters. Well, we thought that this is actually something
that looks when it's printed out on paper. So we decided to place the equiva-

the_ant.txt or any BBS information. But by the
context of the update, the story was
written most likely in the mid-90s,
Here is a revised version of the old toward the end of the BBS era, and
Aesop's Fable, THE ANT AND THE in the dark recesses of the Clinton
GRASSHOPPER. No author is mentioned administration.
#################################### ####################################
OLD FABLE
The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house
and laying up supplies for the winter.
The grasshopper thinks he's a fool and
laughs and dances and plays the summer
away. Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed. The grasshopper has no food or
shelter so he dies out in the cold.
CURRENT VERSION
The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house
and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks he's a fool and
laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the shivering
grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be
allowed to be warm and well fed while others are cold and starving. CBS, NBC
and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering grasshopper next to video
of the ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food.
America is stunned by the sharp contrast. How can it be that, in a country of
such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so? Then a
representative of the NAAGB (The National Association for the Advancement of
Green Bugs) shows up on Nightline and charges the ant with green bias, and
makes the case that the grasshopper is the victim of 30 million years of
greenism.
Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper, and everybody
cries when
he sings "It's Not Easy Being Green."
Bill and Hillary Clinton make a special
guest appearance on the CBS Evening
News to tell a concerned Dan Rather that they will do everything they can for
the grasshopper who has been denied the prosperity he deserves by those who
benefited unfairly during the Reagan summers. Richard Gephardt exclaims in an
interview with Peter Jennings that the ant has gotten rich off the back of the
grasshopper, and calls for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his
"fair share."
Finally, the EEOC drafts the "Economic Equity and Anti-Greenism Act"
retroactive to the beginning of the summer. The ant is fined for failing to
hire a proportionate number of green bugs. Having nothing left to pay his
page 15
retroactive taxes, the ant's home is confiscated by the government.
Hillary gets her old law firm to represent the grasshopper in a defamation suit
against the ant. The case is tried before a panel of federal hearing officers
that Bill appointed from a list of single-parent welfare moms who can only hear
cases on Thursday's between 1:30 and 3 PM. The ant loses the case.
The story ends
as we see the grasshopper finishing up the last bits of the
ant's food while the government house he's in, which just happens to be the
ant's old house, crumbles around him since he doesn't maintain it. The ant has
disappeared in the snow. And on the TV, which the grasshopper bought by selling
most of the ant's food, they are showing Bill Clinton standing before a wildly
applauding group of Democrats announcing that a new era of "fairness" has
dawned.
