[FISHLANIER]

A wealthy Old Gentleman decides to go on a hunting safari in
Africa , taking his faithful, elderly dog named Killer, along for
the company.

One day the old dog starts chasing rabbits and before long,
discovers that he's lost. Wandering about, he notices a leopard
heading rapidly in his direction with the intention of having lunch.


The old dog 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 dog 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 dog 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 dog
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 dog 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 dog says...
"Where's that damn monkey? I sent him off an hour ago to bring me
another leopard! "


Moral of this story...
Don't mess with the old dogs... age and skill will always overcome
youth and treachery! Brilliance only comes with age and experience.
