Once there was this zoo keeper. He had all the animals one would expect to
see in a zoo except GORILLAS. So, he decided to take a trip to Africa and
catch some gorillas. When he arrived in Africa, he organized a safari. He
wanted live gorillas, so he only carried a gun for protection. He hired an
expert gorilla catcher, who had a dog as a companion. The man asked the
gorilla catcher what the dog was for, and the gorilla catcher replied,
"You'll see.". So the ventured forward into the jungle in search of
gorillas. They came upon a small gorilla in a tree, and the gorilla catcher
proceeded to climb the tree. The man climb right up to the gorilla, shook
the tree, the gorilla fell down, the dog ran up and bit his balls and
paralyzed the gorilla. The zoo keeper was very happy. So, they proceeded
until they came upon a medium size gorilla. The same events took place; the
man climbed under the gorilla, shook the tree, the gorilla fell, and the dog 
ran up, bit him on the balls, and paralyzed him. So, next they came upon a 
huge gorilla. So, the man climbed up the tree, but this time he didn't get 
so close. He shook the tree, nothing happenend. He climbed a little closer,
and shook the tree; again nothing happened. He climbed right up under the 
gorilla, shook the tree, the gorilla looked down, got pissed off, and
reached down and wapped the man. As the man was falling you could hear him
say, "SHOOT THE DOG, SHOOT THE DOG".
