OLD DOGS !!
>>To my fellow old dogs...
>>
>>One day the old German Shepherd starts chasing
>> rabbits and before long, discovers that he's lost. Wandering about, he
>> notices a panther heading rapidly in his direction with the intention of
>> having lunch.
>>The old German Shepherd 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 panther is about to leap, the old German
Shepherd
>> exclaims loudly, 'Boy, that was one delicious panther! I wonder, if there
>> are any more around here?'
>>Hearing this, the young panther halts his attack
>> in mid-strike, a look of terror comes over him and he slinks away into the
>> trees..
>>'Whew!' says the panther, 'That was close! That
>> old German Shepherd nearly had me!'
>>Meanwhile, a
>> squirrel 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
>> panther.
>>So, off he goes, but the old German Shepherd sees
>> him heading after the panther with great speed, and figures that something
>> must be up. The squirrel soon catches up with the panther,
>> spills the beans and strikes a deal for himself with the panther.
>>The young panther is furious at being made a fool
>> of and says, 'Here, squirrel, hop on my back and see what's going to
happen
>> to that conniving canine!
>>Now, the old German Shepherd sees the panther
>> coming with the squirrel 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 German Shepherd says...
>>'Where's that
>> squirrel? I sent him off an hour ago to bring me another panther!
>>
>>Moral of this
>> story...
>>
>>Don't mess with the old dogs... age and skill will
>> always overcome youth and treachery! BS and brilliance only come with
>> age and experience.
