I’ve never read his books but am surely interested now.
In honor of the late Sir Terry Pratchett.
“The intelligence of the creature known as a crowd, is the square root of the number of people in it.”
Terry Pratchett

Hearts beat as one, one sweats and so does

Baa here, baa there…nothing gets past the
dismal gaze you can feel coming from the hoard,
sheep or zombies or both, you may ask?
I say sheep, what say you?

I’m with Gina, LOL. We’ll both be howling but thankfully not become a crowd!

Lol. Funny. I like the quote too. I know I’m going too literal here, but even the square roots of pretty large large numbers are still so low that in terms of IQ….damn. To have a crowd where the square root was a more or less normal IQ, there would need to be around 12,000 people. Below 4,900, the crowd is disabled. ๐ฎ
Sorry, math tangent. Good write. ๐

Nothing has looked nicer for the sacrificing than a sheep. One would think that no one would want ot be such a thing… but one is often wrong.
I think you will love Pratchett. He will make you laugh… and scream at sheep every now and then, methinks.
