JERUSALEM (May 29) - A man clad only in underwear and a T-shirt wrestled a wild leopard to the floor and pinned it for 20 minutes after the cat leapt through a window of his home and hopped into bed with his sleeping family.

"This kind of thing doesn't happen every day," said 49-year-old Arthur Du Mosch, a nature guide. "I don't know why I did it. I wasn't thinking, I just acted."

I have a similar problem every night with my younger dog, who's half black Lab and half pit (I think). He starts with about a third of the bed and ends up almost pushing me out. I have to wrestle him every night.

When attampting this in just your shorts, be very care of low hanging fruit.

Imagine if, half asleep, he thought it was his wife trying to get his attention for some "amour".

One night I wrestled a leopard in my underwear. How he got in my underwear I’ll never know.

That’s nothing. I once shot an elephant in my pajamas.

How he got in my pajamas I’ll never know.

The article says that this happened in Israel. If he had snapped off the big cat’s lower jaw and slew 100’s of palestinians with it, we would have a real story...

..in the bed with him at the time, along with his young daughter who had been frightened by a mosquito in her own room.

All of a sudden, the mosquito didn't seem so bad anymore.

What’s wrong? Nobody’s flaming me for having a dog who’s half pit. Of course, the reason I got him is the humane society I adopted him from as a puppy thought he was half Great Dane. Nevertheless, he’s turned out to be a love muffin, so I’ve kept him.

"One night I wrestled a leopard in my underwear. How he got in my underwear I’ll never know." Same here...except IT wasn't a "he".

As I recall, Katherine Hepburn is supposed to come along looking for the leopard, and advise us to sing to the big cat.

Cary Grant will help drag it back home.

See what I learned watching old movies on TV?

I never dreamed there were wild leopards in Israel. What the hell else they got out in that desert, bull moose and orangutans?

For his next trick, he’s going to wrestle a bear, bare.

Sorry.
