Lightbulb The Old Poodle

A wealthy old lady decides to go on a photo safari in Africa , taking her
faithful aged poodle named Cuddles, along for the company.

One day the poodle starts chasing butterflies and before long, Cuddles
discovers that she's lost. Wandering about, she notices a leopard
heading rapidly in her direction with the intention of having lunch.

The old poodle thinks, "Oh, oh! I'm in deep doo-doo now!" Noticing some
bones on the ground close by, she immediately settles down to chew on
the bones with her back to the approaching cat. Just as the leopard is
about to leap, the old poodle 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 poodle 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 poodle 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 poodle 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 her back to her attackers, pretending she hasn't seen
them yet, and just when they get close enough to hear, the old poodle
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 old farts...age and treachery will always overcome youth
and skill! Bullshit and brilliance only come with age and experience!

Re: The Old Poodle

That was a good one. I must say I was surprised as to the end of it.

Re: The Old Poodle

It was good, but the poodle would have to say it really loud for the leopard to hear him "mid-attack", and obviously the leopard would know the poodle doesnt talk to herself that loud, so he would know the poodle was full of it, and eat her anyways. I just don't think it would sound natural, that's all. The leopard would know.

Also, if the poodle is SOOO wise, then why did it chase a butterfly in africa?



good story though.

Re: The Old Poodle

ROFL the butterfly one, maybe because that's his weakness. I mean everybody has a weakness. Like hannibal had eating people.

As for the talking out loud, maybe it wasn't a very smart leopard.

Stop trying to fuck it up, asshole!

True. but if it was a Jaguar, then it would be a whole different story.
