I read somewhere that ostriches don't really stick their heads in the sand. But maybe the person who wrote that was just in denial.

I heard that if an ostrich can't get its head in the sand, it puts all its eggs in one basket. Or was it was head in the basket and eggs in the sand? No, I think it was dinosaurs who put their eggs in the sand- which is why they became extinct. Or was that the dodo... no, the dodo died out because its eggs were eaten by a crab-eating macaque, which was actually a myth. I know it was a myth because when it was chasing crabs it went to sea a lot which sounds like zea-lot, and we all know what happens to them.

Yep, life is so much easier when everything is slotted neatly into its cubicle. ;-)
