    One day, in an effort to please Yevette, Yodar began sweeping the floor of their home. Yevette finally stopped him after the floor of their home had been swept down two feet lower than the level of the earth outside, and water ran into the home every time it rained.



    Then according to the history of the world, a snake appeared in The Tree Of Carnal Knowledge, and began urging Yevette to eat of the fruit of the tree. A TALKING SNAKE? Where the Hell did this come from? Anyhow, history records Yevette weakened and not only ate the fruit of the tree, but nagged Yodar until he did the same.



    Zog was understandably unhappy and cast the two of them out of his garden. Shortly thereafter, Yevette gave birth to two boys, Cane and Unable. This is where history becomes a bit confusing. Suddenly, Unable is found out in the fields tending a flock of sheep. Cane, in a fit of jealous rage, slew Unable.



    Lets review the facts here: Zog created Yodar and Yevette, He placed them in his garden to maintain it. The history of Mount Perry clearly states there were only three people on the face of the earth at this time. Some ne'er-do-well tampered with history and suddenly we have a talking snake living in The Tree Of Carnal Knowledge. Where did this snake come from and who maintained that Yevette heard it talk to her. Lets face it: Yevette, thinking she was smarter than both Zog and Yodar was the only one in recorded history to hear a snake talk. There is something badly wrong with this story.



    Now we have Cane and Unable out in a grassy field surrounded by sheep. Then Cane slew Unable. Where did these sheep come from? Haven’t we already been told that the world outside Zog’s garden was a barren plain with nothing growing?



    The next chapter in the history of the world indicates Cane slew Unable in a fit of jealous rage. Jealous over what? All that existed outside of the garden was this grassy plain and a bunch of sheep.



    The very next chapter has Cane returning to the town of Mount Perry where the outraged citizens stoned him to death for killing his brother.



    Now wait just a minute here! Zog landed on a barren world and planted a garden. To help him tend his garden, he created Yodar Hoopelhoffer the First. Then because Yodar looked so lonely, Zog made a woman for him, and Yodar called her Yevette.



    Now correct me if I’m wrong, but this tally's to only three people living in a garden and on Mount Perry in an otherwise land devoid of life. I can understand the concept of Yodar and Yevette having two children and one killing the other but at this point in history, by my count, there are only three people on the whole continent of Pangea.



    Where the hell did this talking snake come from and who the blazes said it ever talked? Only Yevette. She, of course, needed someone to blame for telling her to eat the forbidden fruit. What more natural patsy than the poor snake, if indeed there ever was a talking snake in the first place.



    In all of recorded history, no one has ever heard a snake talk again. Wouldn’t this be one hell of a great defence in court today if all we had to say was, “The snake told me to do it!” and we’d get off scott-free like Yevette did?



    Now we have to address the issue of Cane returning to the town of Mount Perry and the outraged citizens stoning him to death for killing his brother. Town? Citizens? Where did all this come from all of a sudden? Yodar and Yevette must have been terribly busy while Cane was out in the field killing his brother.



    Could it be that our world history needs to be reexamined?...
