Moooo.....


Two prisoners were climbing up to the roof of the prison in the middle of the night in their long-planned attempt to escape. The roof was at least 50 feet from the ground. A slight mistake could cause a fatal fall. When they reached to the top, they realized that the roof was made of thin layers of zinc sheets. Realization came a bit too late for the thin zinc sheets made a sound on impact against their heavy feet. The sound was loud enough to be heard by a guard down below. “Who goes there?” the guard called out. Trying to remove the guard’s suspicion, one of the prisoners mimicked a cat sound. “Meowww!”. The guard bought it. Then the zinc sheets made a sound again when they started to move. “Who goes there?” the guard called out again. This time he switched his flash light on and took out his pistol. In that moment of panic, the other prisoner sounded, “moooo!” They were captured immediately after.

When faced with insecurities, our foolishness shines.
