True

There once was a skunk in my yard,
And although I'm no bard,
I'll tell you the story,
of how I won glory,
As soon as my door is unbarred.

No offense taken, but this happens to be a true story. I went out one morning to warm up my car, and at the end of the sidewalk, there stood a skunk. We stared at each other for a minute or so, then I went back inside to finish getting ready. When I came back out, the skunk wa still there, and he stared at me for a few more moments, then took off running, tail in the air.
