An old prospector shuffled into town leading
a tired old mule. The old man headed straight
for the only Saloon to clear his parched throat.

He walked up and tied his old mule to the
hitching rail. As he stood there brushing some of the
dust from his face and clothes, a young Gunslinger
stepped out of the Saloon with a gun in one hand
and a bottle of whiskey in the other.

The young gunslinger looked at the old man and
laughed, saying"Hey old man, have you ever danced?"

The old man looked up and said, "No, I never did
dance...never really wanted to."

A Crowd gathered as the Gunslinger grinned and said,
"Well you old fool, Your gonna dance now" and started
shooting at the old mans feet.

The old prospector--not wanting to get a toe shot off--
started hopping around like a flea in a hot skillet. The
crowd was laughing.
when his last bullet was fired, the gunslinger holstered
his gun and turned
and went back into the Saloon.

The old man turned to his mule, pulled out a double
barreled shot gun, and clicked back both hammers.
The loud clicks carried clearly through the desert air.

The crowd stopped laughing immediately.

The young gunslinger heard the sounds too and
slowly turned around.The silence was deafening.
The crowd watched as the young gunman stared
at the old timer and the two gun barrels.

The two gun barrels never wavered in the old man's
hands as he quietly said. "son, have you ever licked
a mule's ...?"

The gunslinger swallowed hard and said, "No sir...
but...I've always wanted to."


There are a few lessons for us all here:

Never be arrogant

Don't waste ammunition

Whiskey makes you think your smarter than
you are

Don't mess with old men, they didn't get old by being stupid

"I just love a story with a happy ending, Don't you"?
