Once upon a time, in a nice little forest, there
lived an orphaned bunny and an orphaned snake. By surprising coincidence,
both were blind from birth. One day, the bunny was hopping through the
forest, and the snake was slithering through the forest, when the bunny
tripped over the snake and fell down, also knocking the snake about quite
a bit.
"Oh, my," said the bunny. "I'm terribly sorry. I didn't mean to
hurt you. You see, I've been blind since birth, so I can't see where I'm
going In fact, since I'm also an orphan, I don't even know what I am."
"Quite okay," replied the snake. "Actually, my story
is much the same as yours. I am also blind since birth and also never knew
my mother. Tell you what -- maybe I could kinda slither over you, and
figure out what you are, so at least you'll have that going for you."
"Oh, that would be wonderful," said the bunny. So
the snake slithered all over the bunny, and said, "Well, you're covered
with soft fur, and you have really long ears, and your nose twitches, and
you have a soft cottony tail. I'd say that you must be a bunny."
"Oh, thank you! Thank you!" cried the bunny in
obvious excitement. "Maybe I could feel you with my paw, and help you the
same way you've helped me." So the bunny felt the snake all over, and
said, "Well, you're scaly and slimy, and you have a forked tongue. I'd say
you must be an attorney."
