ah thinker \\\\\///// hi there; flood occurs and a scorpion finds
himself on a small, dry patch of land,
but will soon drown when the water rises.

He sees a frog and says to him,
"Please save me, I cannot swim.

If I could get on your back and you swim to the higher ground,

I’ll be saved." The frog says,

"But you are a scorpion
– you might sting me and I would die."

The scorpion says, "That would be very foolish of me,
for if I were to sting you, we would both drown."

The frog nods his head and lets the scorpion climb onto his back.

He swims toward the higher ground, but before they reach it,
the scorpion stings him.

As the frog feels the sting paralyzing him, he says,

"What have you done, you treacherous fool?

Now we will both drown." The scorpion says,

"I could not help it. It is my nature."
