Ron Reads Boring Books
Are you tired? You will be. Because I will read to you a boring book and it will be worse than you doing nothing. This podcast is not intended to entertain you. It is intended to bore you. The length of each podcast will vary so you cannot plan your listening easily. Some reads will be short. Some will be excruciatingly long. There will be no intro or outro music. The only sound is my voice and other random sounds as they happen. I change my voice as I read the dialog. Also, I have a southern accent and do not read well. Thank you for listening.

If You Can't Have It, Hate It
In Aesop's fable The Fox and the Grapes, a fox spots a bunch of ripe grapes hanging high on a vine. Hungry and eager, he jumps repeatedly to reach them but fails each time. Frustrated, he walks away, convincing himself that the grapes were probably sour and not worth having. The story illustrates how people may belittle what they cannot attain to cope with disappointment.
