An old German Shepherd...

An 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 do-do 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 exclaimed 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!"

    A friend of mine from many years ago had a sign on his desk.  It read "Old age and treachery will beat youthful enthusiasm every single time!"   Hardy had a way of looking at you and smiling that could make you VERY uneasy!!  I never once saw one of our younger co-workers even consider screwing with Hardy!!  

    When Hardy was around 60 his wife died.  A couple of years later Hardy was rotating three young women (In their 20s) through his place every week.  They even knew about the other young women but they stilled showed up every week on their appointed days!!   Yup, he might have been old but he was still twice the man most men are!!!    :p

    One of my boys is a natural wing shooter, Warbirds can tell you about that. He was having a problem on the Trap range hitting 25/25 with his Rem 1100 until I installed a fiber optic front bead on his gun. Then he started cleaning my clock, and then suddenly he couldn't. Took him a while to figure out that sight was messed with. B)
