Off the Ark

After he opened the door to the ark, Noah told the animals to go forth and multiply, which they did--most of them. A little while later, he found a pair of snakes that hadn't multiplied and asked them why not. "We can't multiply," they replied. "We're adders."
Well, this was quite a dilemma, so Noah asked God what he should do. God told him to construct a platform out of stripped tree trunks and put the snakes on the platform. Noah did so, and the snakes multiplied forthwith.
And so Noah learned the deep spiritual truth that adders need log tables to multiply.
