Once, there was this cat who loved to get drunk, so he went to the bar downtown on the other side of the tracks. He stayed all night long and got so wasted that he could barely stand up, much less walk.

The cat starts to stumble on home. As the cat comes to the train tracks, he doesn't notice a train as it is coming his way. The cat starts to cross the track and the train is right on him.

Just as he crosses, the train goes on by, but the cat was not all the way over and the train ran over his tail, the cat turns its head to see were his tail is and the train cuts his head clean off.

And, The Moral of the Story: Don't lose your head over a little piece of tail!
