Having been there, I was given this advice, in story form of course.
Once upon a time, there was a little cat, who loved his tail. This cat would spend hours cleaning and pruning his tail, while the other cats were out catching mice. Never a speck of dirt would get on this tail, for it was always clean, yes, this cat loved his tail. One fateful day, while walking around the rail yards, the cat heard a train. Turning around quickly, he noticed that his tail was now caught in the tracks. The train beared down on this poor little cat, he tugged and tugged, but he couldn't stop admiring his tail. He looked up just as the train passed him, and the train tore his head clean off.
Never lose your head over a piece of tail.
Cheers.
