Deer Hunting Trip

John and his friend Bob went out hunting one day. Bob had never hunted before, so he followed John's lead.

John saw a herd of deer and told Bob to stay exactly where he was, and to be very quiet.

A moment later, Bob heard a scream. He ran back and asked John what had happened.

"A poisonous snake slithered across my foot," said John. "But that didn't make me scream. Then a brown bear approached and snarled at me, but I still didn't scream."

"So why the hell did you scream?" asked Bob impatiently.

"Well," John went on, "Two squirrels crawled up my trouser leg, and I heard one say to the other:  "Shall we take them home or eat them now?"
