Guide

Rob felt a pull at his hand. His seeing-eye dog pulled him away from the street. He hadn’t even heard the car coming. He had just purchased the dog, and wasn’t very familiar with it. “Thanks boy!” He said. For the most part, the dog was great at keeping Rob safe. However, for some reason, he and the dog got lost near the fish market. Rob was however, impressed with the dog’s ability to ignore fire hydrants and trees. Rob said, “Gee, it sure is impressive how quiet you are boy! In fact, I don’t think I've heard you bark even once!” There was a moment of silence. “Meow??”


Tiger

Todd the tiger angrily sat in his walled habitat. He hated the kid with every fiber of his being. This kid came to the zoo at least once a month, always had food, and always teased Todd with it. “I’ll get him one day,” he growled.

Tammy the tiger replied, “Patience is a virtue.”

“Well it’s a virtue I don’t have. What’s it called to lack patience?”

“Impatience, silly” she replied.

The child leaned extra far over the railing, dangling a cheeseburger. He yelled “Hey Todd! Come get it!” Todd slowly crept up and leaped higher than ever before, pulling the child down and quickly devouring him.

“Impatience is delicious."
