This fellow who had spent his whole life in the desert comes to visit a friend. He'd never seen a train or the tracks they run on.While standing in the middle of the RR tracks one day, he hears the train whistle but doesn't know what it is. His back to the train, he's hit a glancing blow, thrown off the tracks and ends up in the hospital with some minor internal injuries, a few broken bones, and some bruises.

After weeks in the hospital recovering, he's at his friend's house one evening. While in the kitchen, he suddenly hears the tea kettle begin to whistle. He grabs a baseball bat from the nearby closet and proceeds to batter and bash the tea kettle into an unrecognizable lump of metal.

Upon hearing the ruckus, his friend rushes into the kitchen, sees what's happened and asks "Why'd you smash that tea kettle?"

The desert man replies: "Man, you gotta kill these things while they're small."
