| A young reporter went to a retirement home to
interview an aged but legendary explorer. The reporter asked the
old man to
tell him the most frightening experience he had ever had.
The old explorer said, "Once I was hunting Bengal tigers in the
jungles of India. I was on a narrow path and my faithful native
gunbearer was
behind me. Suddenly the largest tiger I have ever seen
leaped onto the
path in front of us. I turned to get my weapon only
to find the native
had fled. The tiger leapt toward me with a
mighty ROARRRR! I soiled
myself."
The reporter said, "Under
those circumstances anyone would have done
the same."
The old
explorer said, "No, not then - just now when I went
'ROARRRR!'" |
