कई साल पुरानी बात है !
... around the time when Pandavas were about. Given the peculiar situation they found themselves in, Pandavas (smart that they were) devised a method to signal when they wanted
private time with the lovely Draupadi.
Each time a Pandava found her alone, they escorted her to the royal chambers leaving their footwear at the door. Lets just say, two pair of footwear were the ancient equivalent of a DND.
So it was one of these days when the sharp Arjun bid his time with the Draupadi. Following a filling lunch, Arjun & Draupadi sought higher levels of Maslowian comforts. However, a dog suffering from the very basic hunger pangs, decided that leather, kept outside a room full of passion is no good. He instead took it as a things to chew on & draged a pair to another corner of the palace.
On this afternoon, Yudhisthir too hurriedly got done with his
flies files & rushed to the royal adobe. Seeing the lone footwear, he rushed right upto the bedside. Much to his dismay not only did he see the bed occupied but also more than he would have liked. In anger he stormed out & invoked a family meeting to discuss this break in protocol. It was soon revealed that dog had been the one to hide the hide.
At this vital juncture, Yudhisthir invoked another of his celestial favors. The dog knows only public display of affection since!
Take-away: If you are a dog, don't even look at royal designs. Theres no respite from doggy style puns!
Networks Takeaway: An encrypted signal without integrity can lay your privates bare.
