    Governor of California is jogging with his dog along a nature trail. A coyote jumps out and attacks dog.

    #1. Governor starts to intervene, reflects upon the movie "Bambi" and then realizes he should stop; the coyote is only doing what is natural.

    #2. He calls animal control. Animal control captures coyote and spends $200 testing it for diseases and $500 upon relocating it.

    #3. He calls veterinarian. Vet collects dead dog and spends $200 testing it for diseases.

    #4. Governor goes to hospital and spends $3,500 getting checked for diseases from the coyote and on getting bite wound bandaged.

    #5. Running trail gets shut down for 6 months while wildlife services conduct a $100,000 survey to make sure the area is clear of dangerous animals.

    #6. Governor spends $50,000 of state funds implementing a "coyote awareness" program for residents of the area.

    #7. State legislature spends $2 million investigating how to better handle rabies and how to possibly eradicate the disease.

    #8. Governor's security agent is fired for not stopping the attack and for letting the Governor intervene.

    #9. Cost: $75,000 to train new security agent.

    #10. PETA protests the coyote relocation and files suit against the state.



    Texas

    Governor of Texas is jogging with his dog along a nature trail. A coyote jumps out and attacks dog.

    #1. Governor shoots coyote and keeps jogging. Governor has spent $0.50 on a .45 ACP hollow point cartridge. Buzzards eat dead coyote.

    Any wonder why California is broke????
