copulation

My Russian teacher's husband was recently in Namibia with their daughter, who now lives in Australia.  Tania was not able to go because of work.  She has not seen her daughter in many, many months.  The husband, a biologist and nature enthusiast, took over 2000 photos of wildlife but none of their daughter.  Tania had to peruse 2000 photos of copulating lions and purple birds to discover that the only subject she had any interest in was nowhere to be found.  She said to me, all I care about was seeing photos of my child...  This man I am married to, he is an idiot.  A big one.

Then we laughed.
