OLD DOG
A wealthy old lady decides to go on a
photo safari in Africa, taking her faithful aged poodle named Cuddles, along
for the company.
One day the poodle starts chasing
butterflies and before long, Cuddles
discovers that he's lost. Wandering
about, he notices a leopard heading
rapidly in his direction with the intention of having lunch.
The old poodle thinks, "Oh, oh! I'm in
deep doo-doo now!" Noticing some bones
on the ground close by, he immediately
settles down to chew on the bones with
his back to the approaching cat. Just as the leopard is about to leap the
old poodle exclaims loudly, "Boy, that was one delicious leopard! I wonder
if there are any more around here?"
Hearing this, the young leopard halts his attack in mid-strike, a look of
terror comes over him and he slinks away into the trees. "Whew!", says the
leopard, "That was close! That old poodle nearly had me!"
Meanwhile, a monkey who had been
watching the whole scene from a nearby
tree, figures he can put this knowledge to good use and trade it for
protection from the leopard. So off he goes, but the old poodle sees him
heading after the leopard with great speed, and figures that something must
be up The monkey soon catches up with the leopard, spills the beans and
strikes a deal for himself with the leopard.
The young leopard is furious at being
made a fool of and says, "Here, monkey, hop on my back and see what's going
to happen to that conniving canine!
Now, the old poodle sees the leopard
coming with the monkey on his back and
thinks, "What am I going to do now?",
but instead of running, the dog sits down with his back to his attackers,
pretending he hasn't seen them yet, and just when they get close enough to
hear, the old poodle says.
"Where's that darn monkey? I sent him
off an hour ago to bring me another
leopard!"
Moral of the story...
Don't mess with old folks...age and
treachery will always overcome youth and skill! Bullsh1t and brilliance only
come with age and experience.
