CANADIAN CARNIVORE

One day a fisherman was lying on a beautiful beach, with his fishing
pole propped up in the sand and his solitary line cast out into the
sparkling blue surf. He was enjoying the warmth of the afternoon sun
and the prospect of catching a fish.

About that time, a businessman came walking down the beach, trying
to relieve some of the stress of his workday. He noticed the fisherman
sitting on the beach and decided to find out why this fisherman was
fishing instead of working harder to make a living for himself and his
family.

"You aren't going to catch many fish that way," said the
businessman to the fisherman, "you should be working rather than lying
on the beach!" The fisherman looked up at the businessman, smiled and
replied, "And what will my reward be?"

"Well, you can get bigger nets and catch more fish!" was the
businessman's answer. "And then what will my reward be?" asked the
fisherman, still smiling. The businessman replied, "You will make money
and you'll be able to buy a boat, which will then result in larger
catches of fish!" "And then what will my reward be?" asked the
fisherman again.

The businessman was beginning to get a little irritated with the
fisherman's questions. "You can buy a bigger boat, and hire some people
to work for you!" he said. "And then what will my reward be?" repeated
the fisherman.

The businessman was getting angry. "Don't you understand? You can
build up a fleet of fishing boats, sail all over the world, and let all
your employees catch fish for you!" Once again the fisherman asked,
"And then what will my reward be?"

The businessman was red with rage and shouted at the fisherman,
"Don't you understand that you can become so rich that you will never
have to work for your living again! You can spend all the rest of your
days sitting on this beach, looking at the sunset. You won't have a
care in the world!"

The fisherman, still smiling, looked up and said, "And what do you
think I'm doing right now?"

Preserve wildlife --- use a vacuum sealer --- and freezer
