Default OT - Just sent to me by...

....our friend, the WWII pilot vet:

A Bikers Story

A biker is riding by the zoo, when he sees a little
girl leaning into the lion's cage. Suddenly, the lion grabs her by the
cuff of her jacket and tries to pull her inside to slaughter her, under
the eyes of her screaming parents. The biker jumps off his bike, runs
to the cage and hits the lion square on the nose with a powerful punch.
Whimpering from the pain the lion jumps back letting go of the girl,
and the biker brings her to her terrified parents, who thank him
endlessly.

A reporter has seen the whole scene, and addressing the
biker, says, " Sir, this was the most gallant and brave thing I saw a
man do in my whole life. "

"Why, it was nothing, really, the lion was
behind bars. I just saw this little kid in danger, and acted as I felt
right."

"Well, I'll make sure this won't go unnoticed. I'm a
journalist, you know, and tomorrow's papers will have this on the first
page. What motorcycle do you ride?

"A Harley Davidson."

The
journalist leaves. Â* The following morning the biker buys the paper to
see if it indeed brings news of his actions, and reads, on first
page:

BIKER GANG MEMBER ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT AND STEALS HIS
LUNCH.
