An 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
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 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 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
leopard.

So, off he goes. The squirrel 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 squirrel, 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 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 dog says…
“Where’s that squirrel? 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!

Bullshit and brilliance only come with age
and experience.
