The systems analyst is driving and when they come to a steep hill he
finds that the brakes have failed and the car is accelerating out of
control.
Hardware tech: “Let’s try and fix it. I’ll crawl under the car and take a look. ”
Systems analyst: “No. I think we should get someone qualified to fix it, a specialist in brakes.”
A Game of Animal Football
The animals were bored. Finally, the lion had an idea. "I know a really exciting game that the humans play called football. I've seen it on TV." He proceeded to describe it to the rest of the animals and they all got excited about it so they decided to play.
They went out to the field, chose teams and were ready to begin. The lion's team received. They were able to get two first downs and then had to punt. The mule punted and the rhino was back deep for the kick. He caught the ball, lowered his head and charged.
So, he pumps the emergency brake, downshifts the gears, and rubs the wheel's rims against the curb.
He finally wrestles the car to a stop. The three climb out and assess the situation.

First,
he crushed a roadrunner, then two rabbits. He gored a wildebeest,
knocked over two cows, and broke through to daylight, scoring six
.Unfortunately, they lacked a placekicker, and the score remained 6 - 0.
Late in the first half the lion's team scored a touchdown and the mule kicked the extra point. The lion's team led at halftime 7 - 6.

In
the locker room, the lion gave a pep-talk. "Look you guys. We can win
this game. We've got the lead and they only have one real threat. We've
got to keep the ball away from the rhino, he's a killer. Mule, when you
kick off be sure to keep it away from the rhino."
The second half began. Just as the mule was about to kick off, the rhino's team changed formation and the ball went directly to the rhino.

Once
again, the rhino lowered his head and was off running. First, he
stomped two gazelles. He skewered a zebra, and bulldozed an elephant out
of the way. It looked like he was home free.
Suddenly
at the twenty yard line, he dropped over dead. There were no other
animals in sight anywhere near him. The lion went over to see what had
happened.
Right next to the dead rhino he saw a small centipede. "Did you do this?" he asked the centipede.
"Yeah, I did." the centipede replied.
The lion retorted, "Where were you during the first half?"
Sheepishly he replied, "I was putting on my shoes.
