Don't get me wrong, folks. I love bulldogs!!! 'Just getting a point across.


Poem Artwork

A bulldog and a cobra
Came face to face one day
The cobra gently sunning
Passing the time away

The nasty minded bulldog
Spotted the snake at rest
The bulldog started barking
Trying the snake to test

The cobra meant no harm to
This yelping snapping beast
The cobra merely wanted
Some solitude at least

This did not please the bulldog
Tried biting cobra's head
The cobra gave one snap and
Foaming bulldog was dead

The moral of this story is this: Don't mess with someone who means you no harm lest ye be messed with once and for all.

I like the moral. One could also consider that one must know the danger before one confronts something new and unknown.

PS. I didn't know that Bulldogs had a belligerent and barking disposition. I thought they just laid around and looked like Winston Churchill. ;-)

The moral of this story is that the bulldog should've hired a mongoose.

Why Apologize!?

I'd Put Animal (Humans) Lovers Esp Cats
On There Own Planet Along With Kangaroos-No Food
No Kitty Litter Boxes!!Kangaroos Eat Cats For Food-
All Cats Gone Kangaroos Will Eat Humans-Then Each Other!
Am I Evil-Come Live My Hole In Wall Apt(s) Cat Piss On My
Car Cover(s) Mag Wheels, Garage Floors!!I'd Rather Pick Up
Smell Dead Bodys(My Army MOS)Graves Registration!

So,Why Apologize? Bull Dogs In Los Angelese Sleazy Mexifornia
Maul Bite Kill Little Chidlren Innocent People Day In Day Out!
You Just Don't Know Or Read About It--

You Don't Live Here!!
