A River...and a Cat....
Imagine you are up in the mountains...a beautiful river runs idly by. It's calm...peaceful...
There, above the water, meanders a fly, buzzing here and there about 18 inches above the river itself...
There in the water is a trout, and that trout says..."You know, if that fly dropped about 6 inches...I'd jump up grab that fly...and Id have me a good meal"
Well, on a big rock on the side of the river, is a rather large bear...and that bear says..."You know, if that fly dropped about 6 inches, that fish would jump up and grab that fly, Id reach out and grab that fish and Id have me a good meal"
Also...
On the far side of the river, there was a hunter behind a log, his view was partially obstructed by some branches...and that hunter said..."You know, if the fly dropped about 6 inches, that fish would jump up and grab that fly, that bear would reach out and grab that fish, when he did, Id have a clear shot...Id take that shot, and Id have me a nice pelt"
Well, in the back pocket of the hunter was a sandwich, and there off a ways was a rat, and that rat saw what was going on and said..."You know, if that fly dropped about 6 inches, that fish would jump up and grab that fly, that bear would reach out and grab that fish, that hunter would have a clear shot, when he took that shot, the recoil of the rifle would knock that sandwich out of his pocket...Id run up and grab that sandwich...havin myself a good meal"
Now you know, that if there is a rat, there's going to be a cat, and sure enough...There was a cat...That cat saw what was going on and said to himself...."You know...if that fly dropped about 6 inches...that fish would jump up and grab that fly, that bear would reach out and grab that fish, that hunter would have his shot, the recoil of the rifle would knock that sandwich out, the rat would grab the sandwich and while he wasnt paying attention...Id run up and eat the rat....sounds like a good meal...."
WELLLL....Wouldn't you know....
That fly...it buzzed around for a while...and sure enough...dropped about 6 inches or so...that fish exploded out of the water...when he did...that bear reaaached out with that big ole paw and snatched that fish right out of the air....right about then..."BOOM" goes the gun of the hunter, and sure enough the sandwich drops to the ground...that rat scurries up grabs the sandwich and runs off to a tree and begins to eat....the cat seeing his chance...runs up and eats the damn rat AND the sandwich....
Now, the cat's got a full belly...that heavy stuffed feeling...and says to himself..."I need to lay down to digest this..." Well, what better spot than on that rock where the bear was standing earlier?...
The cat starts to climb up on that rock, but he's so full...he loses his balance, and falls right into the river....
You want to know what the moral of this story is?
If the fly falls 6 inches...the pussy's gettin wet....
