Two Lions 

Once upon a time, long, long ago there were two unique
lions in the jungles of Africa. Both, it seems, had
human-like qualities that made them claim territory,
daring the other to cross over the line. Strange as it
seems, the boundary between their turf was a well
traveled trail through the jungle. 

All day every day, both lions lay in the brush staring
across the trail at their compatriot, daring him to
cross into their territory. 

The local natives knew of this animal feud, but all
this was unbeknown to African Jack, a well-known and
must publicized guide who did not speak Lionese and
was unfamiliar with the territory. 

While he was leading a safari through the jungle,
walking all day and cutting vines with their machetes,
all this constant hacking brush had them worn to a
frazzle. After seeing two or three of his safari drop
from exhaustion, African Jack decided to stop on the
trail between these two lions and camp for the night. 

After sitting up camp, eating, and getting his safari
settled African Jack sat on a stump and began reading.
While he was busily engaged in the printed page, the
two lions, simultaneously, pounced on African Jack and
ate him on the spot. 

When the 6 o'clock news heard of the tragedy, they
reported, "African Jack killed this evening. The
motive is unclear, but it is reported he was reading
between the lions."
