A bit of humor
A New Twist in Cat and Mouse Relations
Two mice sat in their hole watching the Cat lurk outside. "I know how to make the Cat go away," said the first mouse.
"How?" the second mouse asked in surprise.
"Watch! Bow, wow!!!" barked the first mouse. Peering through their hole in the wall, they saw the cat running away in fear.
"Ah, see the benefit of knowing another language!"
