Beet Votes

Beet is sitting at the kitchen table filling in a form. Frankie the hot dog comes in and says "Hi Beet, whatcha doing?" Beet says "voting". and puts the form into an envelope, gets up, and leaves the house. Frankie follows, and says "how do you know who to vote for?" and beet says "reading." Frankie says "but you don't read the news." Beet says, "I vote for anyone whose name begins with a B, like mine." Frankie says "That's no basis for choosing our leaders!" Beet drops the envelope into a big blue mailbox on the corner and says, "At least i voted."

Cauliflower Fairy Tales

A big califlower sits in an overstuff easy chair with two little cauliflowers on its lap, and reads a children's book: Little red Riding Hood" the children look frightened, and the adult reads, "And the big bad vegan jumped out of bed and gobbled up little red riding hood!" the back cover of the book shows a human eating a terrified piece of broccoli.

New Glasses


Fly father is reading his ipad and having tea. a plate of doughnuts is on the table. his kid leans on the table and takes a doughnut and says, "I like your new glasses dad!" Dad says, "Thanks, kid." the glasses, like fly eyes, are lenses composed of hundreds of tiny round lenses. (subjoke: on the floor two other little flies are eating a fallen doughnut. one says. "Are they called multifocals?" the other fly says "fly specs."
