Goodbye to Butterflies

According to the International Union for the Conservation of Nature, the monarch butterfly is two steps away from becoming extinct. This news was delivered in an article in today's Wall Street Journal, in a tone quite dire.

I'm not sure how I should react. If I'm honest, I don't care a whit. It means nothing to me. I have never been a fan of Butterflies, they being nothing more than insects in fancy outfits. Not like those people who are obsessed with them enough to catch them and kill them and pin them on satin and keep them filed away in drawers. No, those people really love them. I, on the other hand, have always let them alone to fly free.

Oh well, time marches on. I'm much more upset about the extinction of some other things, like:

Writing in cursive 

Calling people on the phone

Getting birthday cards in the mail

Having an attendant fill your tank at the gas station, and wash your windshields too

Double features at the movies

Having a human answer when you call a doctor's office

Respecting our leaders

Dressing up to go to the theater

Being served dinner on an airplane, and getting a pillow and blanket too

Flirting with the opposite sex

An opposite sex
