A walk in the woods

Sam was walking in the woods one day and found a hornet's nest. Being a little thick in the head, he figured he might be able to get some honey from the nest. So starting poking the nest with a stick. At first, nothing happened. So Sam poked it harder. There was a loud buzzing sound and a stream of angry hornets began pouring out. Sam took off running, the hornets in hot pursuit. Luckily, Sam could run slightly faster than the angry insects. His nephew's house was closer than his own, so he ran up the doorstep, rang the doorbell, and sprinted around the back, headed for home. The next day his nephew called him up and said, "You know, the darndest thing happened yesterday. I went to answer the door, and a bunch of hornets were there and stung me! For the life of me I can't figure out how they rang the doorbell."

"That's pretty crazy, Sam exclaimed. "Those sound like a new breed of smart hornets. They sound dangerous. You know, we ought to go out in the woods and kill all the hornets we can find."

"I agree", The nephew replied.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how the War on Terror began.
