A Harley rider is passing the zoo, when he sees a little girl leaning into the lion’s cage. Suddenly, the lion grabs her by the cuff of her jacket and tries to pull her inside to slaughter her, under the eyes of her screaming parents. The biker jumps off his bike, runs to the cage, and hits the lion square on the nose with a powerful punch.
Whimpering from the pain, the lion jumps back, letting go of the girl, and the biker brings her back to her terrified parents, who thank him endlessly.
A New York Times reporter has watched the whole thing. The reporter says to the biker, “Sir, that’s the most gallant and brave thing I ever saw a man do in my whole life.”
The biker replies, “Why, it was nothing, really. The lion was behind bars. I just saw this little kid in danger, and acted as I felt I had to.”
The reporter says, “Well, I’m from the New York Times, and tomorrow’s paper will have this story on the front page…So, what do you do for a living, and, just out of my own curiosity, what political affiliation do you have?”
The biker replies, “I’m a U.S. Marine and I’m a Republican.”
The following morning, the biker buys The New York Times to see if it indeed brings news of his actions, and reads on the front page:
U.S. MARINE ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT AND STEALS HIS LUNCH

Thanks, needed the levity, been on the ladder painting, not only am I older than dirt I feel it. Little Darlin’ sure brings back memories. Elvis was the devil, so was long hair, the old folks said so.
“I like Ike” buttons. Oh yeah, Dale Hawkins , Carl Perkins , Roy Orbison , Jerry Lee Lewis , Bill Haley , Duane Eddy , Andy Starr and Ersel Hickey. “You never can tell”
