DaftGretel was born to daftiness.At an early age, she engaged in experimental treatments programs to treat the moderately insane tortoises, with the result that she retreated into a large, homemade shell from the age of 9 until just recently.Shockingly, this didn't prevent her from functioning well in school and life, and many have commented on her go-git-em attitude, interests in obscure trivia not withstanding.Since joining Plime, DaftGretel has inspired countless dozens to greater perusal of inane facts. (thanks Maven!)_____________________________________________A pious man explained to his followers: "It is evil to take lives and noble to save them. Each day I pledge to save a hundred lives. I drop my net in the lake and scoop out a hundred fishes. I place the fishes on the bank, where they flop and twirl. ‘Don't be scared,' I tell those fishes. ‘I am saving you from drowning.' Soon enough, the fishes grow calm and lie still. Yet, sad to say, I am always too late. The fishes expire. And because it is evil to waste anything, I take those dead fishes to market and I sell them for a good price. With the money I receive, I buy more nets so I can save more fishes." - Anonymous
