A little something for all the traders.

The Tortoise and the Hare

An Aesop Fable


One day a hare was bragging about how fast he could run. He bragged and bragged and even laughed at the tortoise, who was so slow. The tortoise stretched out his long neck and challenged the hare to a race, which, of course, made the hare laugh.

"My, my, what a joke!" thought the hare.
"A race, indeed, a race. Oh! what fun! My, my! a race, of course, Mr. Tortoise, we shall race!" said the hare.

The forest animals met and mapped out the course. The race begun, and the hare, being such a swift runner, soon left the tortoise far behind. About halfway through the course, it occurred to the hare that he had plenty of time to beat the slow trodden tortoise.

"Oh, my!" thought the hare, "I have plenty of time to play in the meadow here."
And so he did.

After the hare finished playing, he decided that he had time to take a little nap.
"I have plenty of time to beat that tortoise," he thought. And he cuddle up against a tree and dozed.

The tortoise, in the meantime, continued to plod on, albeit, it ever so slowly. He never stopped, but took one good step after another.


The hare finally woke from his nap. "Time to get going," he thought. And off he went faster than he had ever run before! He dashed as quickly as anyone ever could up to the finish line, where he met the tortoise, who was patiently awaiting his arrival.

One day a crow sat in a tree. A fox stood near the tree.

The crow had a big piece of cheese in his mouth.

The fox saw the cheese in the crow's mouth. He was hungry. The fox was clever.

The fox said, “Good Morning, pretty crow. How are you today?”

The crow's mouth was shut.

The fox said, “Dear crow, you are a beautiful bird. You have a very sweet voice. Please sing for me.”

The crow heard all these nice things. He opened his mouth to sing for the fox.

“Crow, Crow", he sang.

The cheese fell out of his mouth and the fox took the cheese.

He ate the cheese for dinner.

2 bulls stood at the top of a hill, father and son. They looked down from the hill onto the field where 100's of cows were grazing. The son goes to his dad "hey dad why dont we run down there and **** one of those cows" the father turns to his son and says "Son, why dont we walk down there and **** em all!"

That brings back memories.

Me at 23 years old & my boss Tony Ransley in his Audi, driving to a customer site and telling me that story.

The story I told him back was:

Working is like being a monkey in a tree. When are at the top &you look down, all you can see is smiling faces. When you are at the bottom looking up - all you can see is a$$holes.

Bizarrely - he didn't like my story so much.

I think this came from Tolstoy - "The two most powerful warriors are patience and time".
