This Is Still One Of My Favorite Pieces Of Advice

Our copywriter at work told me this story and it's still one of my all-time favorites. He heard this little gem outside on the sidewalk one day while eavesdropping on an older man laying down the knowledge to a younger dude:

"See, you don't need to be carryin' no gun. What you need to do, is carry a snake. Say a guy pulls a gun on you--you throw a snake at him. What's he gonna do? He's gonna run, that's what he'll do. And he'll probably drop the gun. Ya see, there's just some things people is scared of. And snakes is one of 'em."

Truth.

At last my archnemesis has revealed his evil plot to thwart my gun ploy. Henceforth I shall carry, on my person, an agile mongoose. Now I can go back to creating my anti-anti-missile defense program to combat the impending Soviet attack.

Mwah ha ha ha ha ha!
