A wealthy man decidedto go on a safari inAfrica. He took hisfaithful pet dachshundalong for company.One day, the dachs-hund starts chasingbutterflies and beforelong the dachshunddiscovers that he islost.
So, wandering about,he notices a leopardheading rapidly in hisdirection with the obvi-ous intention of havinghim for lunch. Thedachshund thinks,"OK, I'm in deep trou-ble now!" Then he no-ticed some bones onthe ground close by,and immediately set-tles down to chew onthe bones with his backto the approaching cat.Just as the leopard isabout to leap, thedachshund exclaimsloudly, "Boy, that wasone delicious leopard. Iwonder if there are anymore around here."
Hearing this, the leop-ard halts his attack inmid-stride, as a look ofterror comes over him,and slinks away intothe trees. "Whew,"says the leopard. "Thatwas close. That dachs-hund nearly had me."Meanwhile, a monkey,who had been watch-ing the whole scenefrom a nearby tree,

figures he can put thisknowledge to good useand trade it for protec-tion from the leopard.So, off he goes.
But the dachshund sawhim heading after theleopard with greatspeed, and figured thatsomething must be up.The monkey sooncatches up with theleopard, spills thebeans and strikes adeal for himself withthe leopard. The leop-ard is furious at beingmade a fool of andsays, "Here monkey,hop on my back andsee what's going tohappen to that conniv-ing canine."
Now the dachshundsees the leopard com-ing with the monkey onhis back, and thinks,"What am I going to donow?" But instead ofrunning, the dog sitsdown with his back tohis attackers, pretend-ing he hasn't seenthem yet... and, justwhen they get closeenough to hear, thedachshund says,"Where's that darnmonkey? Sent him offhalf an hour ago tobring me another leopard."

When we lost thehouse, you were there.When I got shot, youstuck with me. Whenmy health started fail-ing, you were still bymy side. "And youknow what?"

A turkey was chattingwith a bull “I would loveto be able to get to thetop of that tree,” sighedthe turkey, but I haven’tgot the energy.”
“Well, why don’t younibble on my drop-pings?” replied the bull.“They’re packed withnutrients.”
The turkey pecked at alump of dung andfound that it gave himenough strength toreach the lowestbranch of the tree. Thenext day, after eatingsome more dung, hereached the secondbranch. Finally after afourth night, there hewas proudly perched atthe top of the tree.
Soon he was spottedby a farmer, who shotthe turkey out of thetree.

Welcome to summer UncleAndy’s Digesters. Congratula-tions, you have successfullymanaged to make it through an-other Maine winter. I’m sure youalready have the long johns andmittens packed away up in theattic, nestled snugly in a plasticstorage bag with a sprinkle ofmothballs so you can smell likethe late 1960’s next winter. Afterthe long months inside and thepercolating of cabin fever there isnothing better than getting out-side listening to the peepers,smelling the fresh air, and givingthe black flies a gourmet dinner.
If you have been ponderingtesting the waters of the housingmarket what are you waiting for,Christmas and the snow again?Give my pal Scott Demers a callover at Maine Mortgage Com-pany and have him set you upwith a pre-qualification and thencall your aunt who has a real es-tate license and go nuts drivingher crazy looking at every thirdhouse on every fourth block inthe twin cities. Rates are greatand there is nothing like warmingthe seat on your own porcelainthrown, trust me!
Once you have found yournew home sweet home you cancelebrate at the Village Inn! Theyare celebrating 50 Years in busi-ness this month, so you know itis already going to be a party andhey you can’t beat the mound oftasty battered clams. That is ex-actly what I had last time I wasdown east or up north if youknow what I mean. After youstuff your face full of deliciousVillage Inn cuisine and unpackthe boxes in your new homemake sure you save some timeto read Uncle Andy’s Digestcover to cover and help your fel-low Mainers!
Two of the best parts of Maineare the people and the Digest…and neither is complete withoutthe other. As always until nextmonth email me at [email protected] tweetme at UADMiamiMike!

Cooking Tips from a College KidBy Natasha Piirainen
Are you like me, spending thesummer away from yourmother’s amazing cooking?Some of my favs are: stuffedshells, lasagna, delicious, juicyburgers on the grill, and warmpeanut butter chocolate chipcookies for dessert! Maybe you(like me) have chosen to liveout of state to do research forthe summer that sounded goodat first, but now after thinkingabout momma’s cooking you’rebeginning to feel like it might bea mistake? Let’s get throughthis together... here are somethrifty tips and tricks to help youcook for yourself like a pro!Great for any college student.
1) Buy a crockpot. You reallycan set it and forget it! Pick upsome meat at the grocery storeand a bottle of already mademarinade, dump it into thebowl, and BOOM! you’ve gotyourself a five star meal thatonly takes a few hours to cook!
2) Stock up on pasta. You canadd anything to it! Tomatosauce is most popular, but youcan also use parmesan cheese,sausages, cheddar, Italian orranch dressing, barbecuesauce, sour cream, leftoversoda, alright some of theseprobably wouldn’t taste thatgreat but you get the point.
3) Most importantly, get a car.Driving means you can gohome for a visit when it is din-ner time. In my case, just athree and a half hour drivethrough three states will get meback to Maine in time for lemongarlic chicken and stuffing. Anda long drive for mom’s home-made cooking is always a bet-ter idea than ramen noodles!
Good luck and happyeating!

Hazards attract, fair-ways repel.
