Tree huggers tale
A woman from Austin, who was a tree hugger and anti-hunter, purchased
several acres of Hill Country land, near Lake Travis, Texas. There was a
huge tree on one of the highest points in the tract. She wanted to view
the natural splendor of her land, so she climbed the tree. As she neared the
top, she encountered a spotted owl. It attacked her! In her haste to
escape, the woman slid down the tree to the ground. The ensuing fall
incurred several splinters of wood in her crotch.
In considerable pain, she hurried to the nearest doctor, 35 minutes
away.
She told him she was an environmentalist and anti-hunter and how she
came to
receive all of the splinters. The doctor listened to her story with
great
patience. He then told her to go into the examining room and he would
see if
he could help. The impatient patient sat, and waited for three hours
before
the doctor reappeared.
The angry woman demanded, "What took you so long"
He smiled and said, "Well, I had to get permits from US Environmental
Service, the Texas Parks and Wildlife and Keep Texas Beautiful before I
could remove old-growth timber from a recreational area. I'm sorry, but they
turned me down."
