A man awakened eary one morning to see a gorilla in the tree in his front yard. Concerned, he called animal control and was told he would have to call a specialist. Sure enough there was a "Gorilla Removal Specialist" in the yellowpages. He called and the man came right over.
When the specialist arrived he came over to the homeowner carrying a ladder, a shotgun, a baseball bat, a pair of handcuffs, and leading a mean looking pit bull terrier.
The specialist shook hands with the homeowner. "Sir, I can fix your gorilla problem, but my assistant is sick today and I am gonna need your help."
'Um, alright," the homeowner said, "what do you need me to do?"
"I am gonna use this ladder to climb that tree," says the man handing the homeowner the shotgun, "and whack that gorilla in the head with my bat. The gorilla will fall from the tree and my specially trained pit bull here will latch on to the gorilla's..uh..gonadical area, paralyzing the beast in agony. I will then descend from the tree and cuff the gorilla, and lead him away to the zoo."
"Uh, but what do I need to do," asked the homeowner.
"In the unlikely event that the gorilla manages to knock me out of the tree first, sir, I want you to SHOOT THAT DOG!"
