A Wise Tale

A 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 shit 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.

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!
Bullshit and brilliance only come with age and experience.

Of course, I am in no way insinuating that you are old, 

just 'youthfully challenged'.
