Beware of Strangers

Two Aliens landed in the Arizona desert a few yards from an old gas station that

was closed for the night. They approached one of the gas pumps, and the younger

alien addressed it saying, 'Greetings, Earthling. We come in peace. Take us to

your leader.' The gas pump, of course, didn't respond. The younger alien became

angry at the lack of response. The older alien said, 'I'd be calm if I were you.' The

younger alien ignored the warning, and repeated his greeting. Again, there was no

response. Annoyed by what he perceived to be the pump's haughty attitude, he drew

his ray gun and said impatiently, 'Greetings, Earthling! We come in peace. Do not

ignore us this way! Take us to your leader, or I will fire!'

The older alien again warned his comrade saying, 'You probably don't want to do that.

I really don't think you should make him mad.' ' Rubbish,' replied t he cocky, young

alien. He aimed his weapon at the pump and opened fire. There was a huge explosion.

A massive fireball roared toward them, and blew the younger alien off his feet, and

deposited him, a burnt smoking mess, about 200 yards away in a cactus patch. Half an

hour passed. When he finally regained consciousness, he refocused his three eyes,

straightened his bent antenna, and looked dazedly at the older, wiser alien who was

standing over him shaking his big, green head. 'What a ferocious creature!' exclaimed

the young, fried alien. 'He damn near killed me! How did you know he was so dangerous?'

The older alien leaned over, placed a friendly feeler on his crispy friend and replied, 'If

there's one thing I've learned during my intergalactic travels, you don't want to mess with

a guy who can wrap his penis around himself twice, and then stick it in his ear.'
