Common house flies land where they do for a variety of reasons. For some, it’s the smell of fly specks, aka flypoop, that draws them to walls and ceilings. Others scope their environment for moist, decaying organic material such as feces and rotting meat. Oops, there’s that poop attraction again. There are others, however, that crave sweet or fermented liquids like syrup, soda, or vinegar. Not for nothin’ but some say you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar and even more than that with poop. (I just threw that in for those interested in catching flies???) And, one last hot spot that will attract more flies than you can shake a stick at is a dead animal. And there you have it, basically everything that flies crave.
The fly that landed on Pence’s head during the debate last night probably did so for one of the above reasons. Still, this is a long-shot, but WHAT IF that fly was of the genus and species musca domestica of the rare suborder Goldblum? It could have been asked outright “Why Pence?”. Think about it. For as long as that fly stayed put, it was probably begging to be heard …………and no one had the wherewithal to stick a mike in its face. That was clearly an opportunity missed.
Why the fly landed on Pence’s head and stayed as long as it did is anyone’s guess. Did it just happen for one of the reasons in paragraph 1? Was it some sort of divine intervention because of Pence’s close relationship with his god? OR, get ready for this, QAnon, was it a miniature fly drone delivering words to a cheater, a lifeless, faux-Christian, hypocrite? AH-HA! GOTCHA!
On November 3, let’s rid America of everything that draws flies……..
