Description
Once upon-a-time, a long, long time ago, a cape buffalo was in dire misery from all the ticks sucking away at his very life. the oxpicks were on strike for their numbers demanded more ticks and more buffalo ever since the anthrax epidemic. the buffalo sent up a prayer to the Great Ox. the Great Ox looked down on his pitiful herd and gave them the noble egret to relieve them from their great misery. the oxpicks eventually came off strike once they negotiated their regular hours and places they would come to the buffalo, but ever since the strike the noble egret became the buffalos close friend and was always welcome any time and place.
Moral: know what you want and then pray for it and you may find your prayers are answered.
