THE LION TAMER

A man told the ringmaster that he was interested in joining the circus as a lion tamer. The ringmaster asked what experience he had, and the man said, "Quite a lot. My father was one of the most famous lion tamers in the world, and he taught me everything he knew."

"Really?" said the ringmaster. "Did he teach you how to make a lion jump through a flaming hoop?"

"Yes, he did," the man replied.

"And did he teach you how to have six lions form a pyramid?"

"Yes, he did," the man replied.

"And have you ever stuck your head in a lion's mouth?"

"Just once," the man replied.

The ringmaster asked, "Why only once?"

"I was looking for my father."
