A fellow from Boston was in Atlanta, GA, visiting family. One day he decided to take a walk around
the area where his relatives lived to enjoy their fine, comfortable Southern way of life - something
he was not accustomed to, being from Boston.

While he was walking he happened upon a pit bull attacking a small child. His instincts took over,
and he ran to the child's aid. He grabbed the dog, pulled him from the child, and choked the dog
until he was dead.

As the dead animal lay at his feet, a man came running over from the other side of the street. He
announced that he was the star reporter for the Atlanta newspaper, and he would make the rescuer
famous.

The would-be savior explained that it was very nice, but he was from Boston - not Atlanta. The next
day the headlines of the Atlanta paper read:
