When a visitor to a small town in Georgia
came upon a wild dog
attacking a young boy, he quickly grabbed the
animal and throttled it with
his two hands.
A reporter saw the
incident, congratulated the man and told him the
headline the
following day would read, „Valiant Local Man Saves Child by
Killing
Vicious Animal.“
The hero told the journalist that he wasn’t from
that town.
„Well, then,“ the reporter said, „the headline will
probably say,
‚Georgia Man Saves Child by Killing
Dog‘.“
„Actually,“ the man said, „I’m from Connecticut.“
„In that case,“
the reporter said in a huff, „the headline should
read, ‚Yankee
Kills Family Pet‘.“
