Description
Edmund loved Miss Martha, the Librarian from afar. When he gave her his favorite bug, he hoped it would impress her. Little did he know Martha actually had a degree in Entomology and when she saw the grand creature, she gasped, "Is that a purple-spotted Scarabaeidae Magnificii?"
Beaming with pride, Edmund asked if she would like to have coffee after work. Martha smiled and gently explained that it wasn't quite appropriate that a grown-up lady like her go out with a little boy. Edmund sort of squinted and frowned, then said, "But, I'm 41 years old."
"Oh." Martha said standing up straighter a bit surprised. She looked at the beetle, then at Edmund. Shrugging, she said she got off at 5:15.
