Never Mind Ducks or Horses of Whatever Size
Perthville’s rock-jaw Three Star General was today succumbing to an irascible, bullying Senator when a prodigy turned up to save the day.
It was the town’s struggling Tennis Player. He may still be awaiting his first win on the satellite circuit, but he has other skills; life lessons instilled in him by his disciplinarian ‘tennis father’.
He was seen climbing a roof to reach the Three Star General to help the latter quell a riot instigated by the Senator.
Together they fought hard, and averted the riot.
When the dazed Senator was later asked, “Which would you rather fight: 100 Tennis Player-sized General Pattons, or 1 General Patton-sized Tennis Player?”, he answered glibly: “The ducks and the horses, together.”
