I've seen pigs up close. And it is true that piglets are incorrigible. Little piglets just love wallowing in mud and have nothing better to do than wiggle and waddle from puddle to puddle. They thoroughly enjoy the mud; they aren't happy unless they are squirming in mud. And piglets don't care one whit about who else gets coated in mud as a result of their own dirty habits. Ya simply can't wash off the caked mud with any hope of changing them into pigs that talk to spiders named Charlotte. That's a fantasy that reality grasps between its molars and crushes without uttering a word. Therefore, don't try to wash piglets and adorn them with grama's pearls; otherwise, those pearls will be caked and coated with mud, too. Then they'll have to be restrung. Just saying...selahV
