> The grasshopper thinks the ant is 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 , PBS, CNN, and ABC show up to provide pictures of
> the shivering grasshopper next to a 
> video of the ant in his comfortable home with a table
> filled with food. America is stunned by the sharp contrast.

> crumbles around him because he doesn't maintain it. 
> The ant has disappeared in the snow.
