Since I live about a ten-minute drive from the office, I could walk instead. Or bike, skate, whatever. With the proper incentive.
So I signed up to be Chased By A Leopard. As soon as I leave the house, loudspeakers announce, “The cat has been released. Run for your lives!” I grab the fastest
transportation I can immediately find (now I own a decent bike), and pedal my heart out. In my spare time, I’m devising even more efficient transport. This animal cannot be seen until that final, fatal leap. Let’s keep it that way.
The guys in my carpool signed up, too. He’s after the slow and weak, so all must stay with the herd. We’ve learned to carry our suits in watertight bags. We arrive exhausted, caked in mud and sweat. But it’s saving a fortune on gas.
After work, it’s that damn leopard again.

"Examination question one: Practical. The doors are locked. Beneath your chair are the components of a high-velocity rifle. In two minutes, a hungry Bengal tiger will be released into the room. Take whatever actions you consider appropriate." |

It might be hard to get the leopard to stay
on task. Cheaper variations could include
Chased by the Tossed Salad Man on a Mini
Bike, Chased by Ann Coulter, and the
"Speed" package, which contains a
speedometer linked to a small explosive
inside of a hornet's nest backpack. |

You only have to be faster than someone else. |

I'd consider being chased by the Monty Python topless women squad, if only because I don't run so fast. |
|
| |
And what exactly chases me to work? |

//And what exactly chases me to work?// |
|
| |
Why, [8th of 7] with a pith helmet and the aforementioned high-velocity rifle! Tally ho! |
|
| |
Monty Python or Benny Hill? |
|
| |
I sure as hell don't want to be chased by Beny Hill. |
|
| |
(8th), just how far disassembled is that rifle? I'm not really good at that kind of thing. (link) |
|
| |
Update: It turns out to be a case of mistaken identity. While mountain lions have been seen in the area before, this sighting was of bobcats, a whole different issue. No big deal. |
|
| |
Its a teamwork exercise. If everyone does a different component, there's time to put the whole thing together, with enough time to spare to find out where the instructor hid the ammo. If everyone just tries to do their own rifle, somebody dies. |
|

//topless women squad//
[DrCurry], are they available for me to chase to the office? You know, for when the leopard has the day off. |
|
| |
Meanwhile, back in the idea... Isn't the real challenge here one of keeping the leopard on task? |
|
| |
Is this an obsessive-compulsive leopard, a leopard wearing highly-intelligent blinkers or a leopard carefully trained with rewards and punishments ... not to eat all the *other* people who are just coming off shift, going to work in a different place, going to the shops or otherwise not involved in this scheme? |
|
| |
I mean, you only need one lost jogger, and the sated leopard provides no further challenge to the jaded commuters that day, does he? |
|
| |
There isn't really a leopard, just lot of people shouting "There's a leopard behind you! He's going to get you!! Run!!! Don't look around or he'll sense your fear!!!!" |
|
| |
Doesn't running away usually convey a sense of fear better than looking around? |
|
| |
How about a NSFW on that link, you insensitive clod? |
|
| |
After review of all the links, I've come to the conclusion that I must be the insensitive clod [Voice] refers to. |
|
| |
And after some consideration, I guess I'll have to plead guilty to that charge. |
|
| |
It seems like a perfectly acceptable image to me - small, low resolution, a few bare breasts in the distance. |
|
| |
But I'm not offended by skin. And the file name clearly says "...nude.jpg..." in it. That seems like sufficient word to the wise. |
|
| |
I'm guessing that [Voice] has been caught by an unsympathetic cow-orker, and is feeling understandably sore, but there's no need to be rude to [norm] on that account - as he says, it clearly says 'nude'. I hope your career recovers quickly, [Voice]. |
