CA vs AZ

[Gunco]

[FONT='Palatino','serif']California:

Governor of California is jogging with his dog along a nature trail. A Coyote jumps out and attacks dog.

1. Governor starts to intervene, reflects upon the movie "Bambi" and then realizes he should stop; the coyote is only doing what is natural.

3. He calls veterinarian. Vet collects dead dog and spends $200 testing it for diseases.

4. Governor goes to the hospital and spends $3,500 getting checked for diseases from the coyote and getting bite wound bandaged.

5. Running trail gets shut down for 6 months while wildlife services conduct a $100,000 survey to make sure the area is clear of dangerous animals.

6. Governor spends $50,000 of state funds implementing a "coyote awareness" program for residents of the area.

7. State legislature spends $2 million investigating how to better handle rabies and how to possibly eradicate the disease.

8. Governor's security agent is fired for not stopping the attack and for letting the Governor intervene.

9. Cost: $75,000 to train new security agent.

10. PETA protests the coyote relocation and files suit against the state.

Sounds about right.

This joke was originally "CA vs TX", and came out after Governor Perry shot the coyote while jogging.


Make more sense now?

No.

More "current events" relevant perhaps, but makes the same sense regardless.

KISS solutions work.

Feed the politicians to the coyote and we all win
