Slow and steady wins the race

The Tortoise and the Hare by flickr user ConstantineD

Brett: So we all know the story of the tortoise and the hare... But have you ever stopped to wonder if the hare was bribed by a gambler to throw the race?  I would imagine a bet on the tortoise would have payed off pretty big.

Lori: Ooh, maybe.  But let's give this story some edge.  I'll bet the hare made an under the table bet on the tortoise himself!

Brett: It's a scandal!  It's a outrage!  A multi-tooled athlete like that cheating the integrity of the race?  I'll never be able to listen to that story the same way.

Lori: Ah.  How we come to miss the naivety of youth...

Brett: I quite agree with you.
