I'm sure you know this fable: There was a terrible forest fire and animals were running away. On the river bank a frog and a scorpion were making a deal. Scorpion promised that he wouldn't bite the frog if she swam across the river with him above her. Frog wasn't sure about scorpion. "You could bite me" -- the frog said. "No way" -- scorpion replied-- "If I did we both would die". Finally frog agreed but when they were in the middle of the river, scorpion bit the frog. "I'm terrible sorry -- he said--, but it's my nature: I'm a scorpion".
