Martian Jungle Scene...
There was this martian village, with huts built from the grass and reeds
which grow nearby, which had a cheif who was a great conquerer of other
villages.
Whenever he conquered another village, he would take the throne of the
other village's chief, and put it in the attic of his house (a grass hut
with an attic?? Oh well...).
One day, the weight of the thrones was so great that his hut collapsed,
and the falling thrones killed him (I might say the rain of thrones ended
his reign, but I won't).
The moral of the story is:
People who live in grass houses shouldn't stow thrones.
