Tiny creatures with exoskeletal features have invaded our house. I mean ants. It's a spring thing around here, but this year, I fear, there are more than ever. The guy at the hardware store said everyone in the neighborhood is being driven crazy this season. Could record rainfall be the reason? I don't know. But I want them to go!
It occurred to me that we in the vertebrate subphylum actually retain some key exoskeletal features ourselves - namely our skulls, which protectively encase our brains - and our spines which protectively encases our spinal cords, the other part of our central nervous system.
I wouldn't want my brain
exposed
to wind and rain.
I like it very well
enclosed
in this hard shell.
