From another website I frequent:

Here's the setup ... the governor is jogging with his dog along a nature trail. A coyote jumps out and attacks dog. Now what?

A. Governor of California

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

#2. He calls animal control. Animal control captures coyote and spends $200 testing it for diseases and $500 upon relocating it.

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

#4. Governor goes to hospital and spends $3,500 getting checked for diseases from the coyote and on 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.



B. Governor of Texas

#1. Governor shoots coyote and keeps jogging. Governor has spent $0.50 on a .45 ACP hollow point cartridge.

#2 Buzzards eat the dead coyote.


Any wonder why California is broke?

TX part of this story is true, except I understand Governor Perry was carrying a 380 ACP, not a 45 ACP. Check the TX news.

Too funny, it is closer to reality than we might like to admit.

Wouldn't the Governator just tear the coyotes head off? I though he did that in one of his previous movies.


Movies are real, aren't they?

These days it's cheaper to carry the .45 auto over the .380.
