A wealthy Australian man (yes, we still have a few left) decided to go on a
safari in Africa. He took his faithful pet Dingo along for company. One day,
the Dingo starts chasing butterflies and before long he discovers that he is
lost. So, wandering about, he notices a leopard heading rapidly in his
direction with the obvious intention of having lunch. The dingo thinks,
"Geez, I'm in deep poop now!"
He noticed some bones on the ground close by, and immediately settles down
to chew on the bones with his back to the approaching cat. Just as the
leopard is about to leap, the dingo exclaims loudly, "Bugger me dead, that
was one delicious leopard. I wonder if there are any more around here?"
Hearing this, the leopard halts his attack in mid stride, as a look of
terror comes over him, and slinks away into the trees. "Whew," says the
leopard. "That was close. That dingo 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 dingo 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 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 Aussie canine."
Now the dingo sees the leopard coming with the monkey on his back, and
thinks, " Struth, 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 dingo says, "Where
the bloody hell's that monkey? I sent him off half an hour ago to bring me
another leopard."
MORAL: IF YOU CANT DAZZLE THEM WITH BRILLIANCE, THEN YOU NEED TO BAFFLE
THEM WITH BULLSHIT!!!
