Dear Wally,
Congratulations on becoming
an international star on the Internet. I have tried, too, to become famous, but
it hasn’t happened quickly for me. Neither has it been fast for you, I believe.
Your first brush with fame was when you made headlines for a sexual assault
charge. The charges disappeared quickly, or was that your manhood? I can’t be
sure.
Then in 2008 you had
another go when you shot a bear. But that turned ugly when they nearly arrested
you. They say things happen in 3’s. Looks like they’re right. After shooting
Cecil the Zimbabwean lion you have exploded on the net. Some people wish it was
literally though. Strange how the hunter always becomes the hunted? Just when
you think you’ve topped the food chain.
The backlash on the Internet
seems to have affected you in the way of mending teeth. Your practice has now
been closed for a few days. Some say you’ve bitten off more than you can chew.
Cant be, though, you’re a dentist. Even though dentists aren’t real
doctors.
After shooting Cecil
you said you had no knowledge of him being famous. That’s an awful lot of money
and effort to kill an old lion. I wouldn’t have gone to all that effort. Maybe
that’s why I never made medical school.
You should have tried
going to the Kruger Park. For that money I’m sure they’d let you use nuclear
weapons. More bang for your buck. Or Lion. Whatever.
Apparently you had a
vehicle drag a dead animal along in order to lure Cecil out of the bush. This
must be a new means of hunting; get the animal to come to you. Quite clever how
things advance. Even fishing in a barrel seems difficult by comparison.
A story on the news
said that Cecil was skinned and left beheaded. If all you wanted was a lion
head and skin, there are plenty of knock-offs around these days. You can get a
handcrafted lookalike for next to nothing. I got the knock-off plastic version,
but then again my knockers aren’t as large as yours to go into the wild and get
the real deal.
Speaking of knockers,
there’s talk that you’re going to make a court appearance, and if found guilty
you could possibly face jail time. A word of advice from someone who lives on
the African continent: Ingratiate yourself with the right crowd. Men in African
prisons are extremely passionate and your sentence could seem like one long
honeymoon. But I am sure a man who’s handled himself so well with beasts will
have no trouble warding off mere human mortals.
An idea I have for when
you return to the United States and resume the life you left before venturing
to Zimbabwe. I suggest you look to invest in a Sony PlayStation and hunting
games. That way you can hunt all the worlds’ animals into extinction without
breaching the law. But more importantly it will keep your mind off the real
thing. If you come here again one can’t promise that you won’t become a trophy
yourself.
Good Riddance
