The Flame...

A man had a fight with his wife and left his hut to get some air. He met his hunting buddy by the bonfire and started to rant about the many problems his wife gave him.

His friend took a deep breath and said, "Call yourself bold, fearless, a 'man', or whatever. But when it comes to fire, even a Tiger knows to run the other way."

"You're one to talk, you ain't married."

"Like I said, when a tiger sees a growing flame it is wise enough to run the other way." He paused. "Anyway, there are Tigers out here, did you know."

"NOW he tells me! I'm going home. Return to yours, fool."

"Why? I'm perfectly safe sitting where I am."

"How do you figure?"

"You're the one making all the noise." He paused again to let his meaning sink in.
