think outside the square

"When in a dilemma, think outside the square"

A wealthy man decided to go on a safari in Africa. He took his
faithful pet dachshund along for company.

One day, the dachshund starts chasing butterflies and before long the
dachshund 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 dachshund thinks, "OK,
I'm in deep trouble now!

Then 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 dachshund exclaims loudly,
"Boy, 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 dachshund 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 dachshund saw him heading
after the leopard with great speed, and figured 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 canine."

Now the dachshund 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 his back to his
attackers, pretending he hasn't seen them yet... and just when they get close
enough to hear the dachshund says........

"Where's that damn monkey? I sent him off half an hour ago to bring me
another leopard."

Moral of the story:
SOMETIMES IF YOU CANT DAZZLE THEM WITH BRILLIANCE THEN BAFFLE THEM WITH
CRAP!!
