GREG : You have two cows. They feed on your lush pastures, and produce much good milk and ripe cheeses ; but winter comes, and you haven't kept enough aside to feed your family. You keep cow 1, and sell half of cow 2 to a greedy neighbour, who has her gang-raped and badly illustrated, so that she dies of neglect. Feeling despondent you abandon cow 1 forever, and go on a walkabout/shamanic vision quest. Feeling sorry for you, a coterie of cheese enthusiasts send you a new cow, but it's not like it used to be. Meanwhile, mad scientists create many clones of cow 2, each one claiming to be better than the original. You have one cow.
