The Old Doberman

 An old Doberman 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 Doberman thinks, "Oh, oh! I'm in deep shit 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 Doberman exclaims 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 Doberman 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 Doberman 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 
Dobermann says .......

"Where's that squirrel? I sent him off an hour ago to bring me another 
panther!" 

Moral of this story...

Don't mess with the old dogs... Age and skill will always overcome 
youth and treachery!
Bull Shit and brilliance only come with age and experience.
