    Smile dont mess with oldies

    A weathy lady decides to go on a photo safari in Africa, taking her faithful aged Yorkshire Terrier along for company.
    One day the Yorkie starts chasing butterflies 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 Yorkie thinks, "Oh, oh! I'm in trouble 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 Yorkie 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-stride, a look of terror comes over him and he slinks away into the trees. "Whew!", says the leopard, "That was close! That old Yorkie 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. So off he goes, but the old Yorkie 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 Yorkie 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 Yorkie says: ”Where's that stupid monkey? I sent him off an hour ago to bring me another leopard!"

    Moral of this story: Don't mess with old folk. Age and cunning will always overcome youth and skill! BS and brilliance only come with age and experience!
