[untitled #508]

My friend Beeman recently went hiking on a poorly identified trail with his sister.

Arriving at an intersection and unsure which way to proceed, they decided to ask a burly man coming down from one of the possible trails.

Beeman asked if the trail he had just taken was the one to the scenic vista.

The man replied that he wasn't sure. The trail went up for a bit and seemed to detour onto a road for a bit. At the place where the trail appeared to veer back off the road, the man had heard a growling noise, and, not wanting to find out what had made the noise, decided to give up on hiking the rest of the trail.

Wanting to know if there was at least a nice view, Beeman's sister asked, "but was it pretty?"

The man replied in all seriousness, "Well, I didn't wait around to see if the growling thing was attractive or not, I just high-tailed it out of there."

Pronouns can be so funny sometimes.
