A woman from Los Angeles, who was a tree hugger and an
anti-hunter, purchased a piece of timberland. There was a large tree on
one of the highest points in the tract. She wanted a good view of the
natural splendor of her land so she started to climb the big tree.
As she neared the top she encountered a spotted owl that attacked her.
In her haste to escape, the woman slid down the tree to the ground and
got many splinters in her crotch.
In considerable pain, she hurried to the nearest doctor. She told him
she was an environmentalist and an anti-hunter and how she came to get
all the splinters. The doctor listened to her story with great patience
and then told her to go into the examining room and he would see if he
could help
her. She sat and waited three hours before the doctor reappeared.
The angry woman demanded, "What took you so long?"
He smiled and then told her, "Well, I had to get permits from the
Environmental Protection Agency, the Forest Service and the Bureau of
Land Management before I could remove old-growth timber from a
recreational area.
I'm sorry, but they turned me down".
