Zig first, and then Zag

I read that if you are being chased by an alligator you need to run in a zigzag. Alligators are pretty quick on land, but not so talented in the agility department. Therefore, if you run straight you'll be sure to see the inside of the gators mouth. "My what sharp teeth you have..."

But if you zig and then zag and then zig again, you will lose the little bugger who can't change directions with any sort of efficiency.


I guess I should be grateful for this tidbit of knowledge, but the truth is, I'm saddened by it.

See, I always thought my demise would be to be eaten by an alligator...but now if I kick the bucket via alligator I'm kinda just an idiot who didn't zag.
