                 A Rabbit's 
      Thesis SCENE: It's a fine sunny day in the forest, and a rabbit is sitting outside his burrow, tippy-tapping on his typewriter. Along comes a fox, out for a walk. FOX: "What are you working on?" RABBIT: "My thesis." FOX: "Hmm. What's it about?" RABBIT: "Oh, I'm writing about how rabbits eat foxes." (incredulous pause) FOX: "That's ridiculous! Any fool knows that rabbits don't eat foxes." RABBIT: "Sure they do, and I can prove it. Come with me." They both disappear into the rabbit's burrow. After a fewminutes, the rabbit returns, alone, to his typewriter and resumestyping. Soon, a wolf comes along and stops to watch the hardworkingrabbit. WOLF: "What's that you're writing?" RABBIT: "I'm doing a thesis on how rabbits eat wolves."(loud guffaws) WOLF: "You don't expect to get such rubbish published, do you?" RABBIT: "No problem. Do you want to see why?" The rabbit and the wolf go into the burrow, and again the rabbit returns by himself, after a few minutes, and goes back to typing. SCENE: Inside the rabbit's burrow. In one corner, there is a pile offox bones. In another corner, a pile of wolf bones. On the otherside of the 
      room a huge lion is belching and picking his teeth.
