>     At the same time, there was a hunter hiding  behind a tree and

>     At the same time (go figure!), there was a cat sitting in a tree and 
>looking at the fly. He thought, "You know, I'll bet that if that fly 
>dropped about six inches, the fish would jump up and get the fly, the

>on the cheese sandwich and I could pounce on the mouse."

>     Well, don't you know it happens:  the fly drops six inches, the fish 
>jumps up and gets the fly, the bear runs across and gets the fish, the 
>hunter jumps up, loses his cheese sandwich, and shoots the bear, the 
>mouse starts nibbling on the cheese sandwich and the cat pounces on the 
>mouse, misses, and lands in the lake.

>     What's the moral of this story?
