There was an old man in France who used to get up every morning
at five A.M. He would then go and sprinkle a white powder on
the roads.

When he was asked what he was sprinkling on the roads, he answered
that it was elephant powder.

The person then remarked "But everybody knows that there are no elephants
in France!" to which he answered "I guess it must be working then!"

It was a boring Sunday afternoon in the jungle so the Elephants decided
to challenge the Ants to a game of soccer.  The game was going well with
the Elephants beating the Ants ten goals to nil, when the Ants gained
posession.

The Ants' star player was dribbling the ball towards the Elephants' goal
when the Elephants' left back came lumbering towards him. The elephant
trod on the little ant, killing him instantly.

The referee stopped the game. "What the hell do you think you're doing?
Do you call that sportsmanship, killing another player?"

The elephant replied, "Well, I didn't mean to kill him -- I was just
trying to trip him up."

There was this guy who bought an elderly circus elephant; I don't know
why.  Alas, he couldn't afford to feed it.  He'd never seen an elephant
jump with all 4 feet off the ground.  So he started a contest: entry was
$10, and the first person to get the elephant to jump with all 4 feet
off the ground would get $50,000. 

All sorts of people tried, but nobody could get the elephant to jump. 
Finally, this little guy arrives in a limousine.  He's carrying a
baseball bat.  He walks up to the elephant, swings the bat, and crunches
the elephants balls pretty badly.  Needless to say, the elephant jumps,
and the owner pays out the $50,000. 

Unfortunately, the owner had barely collected enough to cover the prize,
so he ran another contest.  He'd never seen an elephant swing its head
back and forth as if to say, "no."  Same deal as before: $10 per entry,
$50,000 prize.  Lots of people try and fail.

Then the little guy shows up in his limousine again, pulls out his bat,
and walks up to the elephant.  He says, "Remember me?"  

The elephant nods yes.

The man says holds up his bat and says, "Want me to use this again?"

The elephant nods his head rather emphatically no....

Used to be a man who owned a bar out in the middle of nowhere.  Not
too many people came to the bar, so he was trying to think of a good
gimmick to get people to come.  It so happened he was watching T.V. at
the time and the parade for the circus was on.  As the elephants went
by he remembered reading somewhere that elephants don't laugh.

He went down to the circus and inquired about buying an elephant.  It
just so happen that there was an elderly elephant bull that the circus
was planning to retire.  After agreeing on a price, the man bought the
elephant.

Back at the bar the man put a large jar on the bar with a sign reading:
"Make the elephant laugh, $5.00 a shot, win $5,000."

Well, a lot of people thought they could make the elephant laugh, and
soon the jar was almost full.

Then one night a man walked in and said to the bar owner, "I hear you
will give any one who can make the elephant laugh $5,000."

"Yeah, he's out back"

After about five minutes tremendous, deep, thundering laughter could
be heard coming from behind the bar.  Every one in the bar raced back
to see what was going on.  When they got there the elephant was
LAUGHING!!!  The man could not believe his eyes.  But, a bet was a
bet after all and he paid the stranger who had made the elephant
laugh.

A few weeks later and the elephant was still laughing.  The bar owner
could not stand it any more so he put a sign on the bar reading:

"Make the elephant cry, $5.00 a shot, win $5,000."

Again, a lot of people tried and tried, but they could not get the
elephant to stop laughing.  Finally the man who had gotten the
elephant to laugh in the first place walked in.  Upon seeing
the sign, he inquired if anybody had had any luck in stopping the
elephant from laughing.  Seeings as no one had, he once more went
back behind the bar to see the elephant.

In less than a minute a wail of grief cascaded over the bar.  All
the patrons ran out to see what was up.  The elephant had huge tears
running down its cheeks.  Once again a bet was a bet and the bar
owner paid the man.  Before the man could leave, the bar owner asked
how he had gotten the elephant to laugh and then to cry.

"Easy." said the man, "When I first went back there I told him my dick
was bigger than his.  And now I just proved it."

A man went to a doctor to have his penis enlarged.  Well, this particular
procedure involved splicing a baby elephant's trunk onto the man's penis.

Overjoyed, the man went out with his best girl to a very fancy restaurant.
After cocktails, the man's penis crept out of his pants, felt around the
table, grabbed a hard roll and quickly disappeared under the tablecloth.
The girl was startled and exclaimed, "What was that?".

Suddenly the penis came back, took another hard roll and just as quickly
disappeared. The girl was silent for a moment, then finally said, "I don't
believe I saw what I think I just saw... can you do that again?"

With a bit of an uncomfortable smile the man replied, "Honey, I'd like to,
but I don't think my ass can take another hard roll!"

An elephant is walking through the jungle when she gets a thorn in her foot.
She is in absolute agony until an ant strolls by.  So the elephant says,
"Help me, help me."

But the ant refuses unless the elephants agrees to let the ant have his
wicked way with her. Replys the elephant, "Anything! Anything!"
So, out comes the thorn and up gets the ant and proceeds to enjoy himself.

Meanwhile, in a tree directly above them, a monkey, who witnessed the
whole episode, was in knots of laughter. Consequently he fell out of the
tree on top of the elephant.

Says the elephant: "Ouch!"

Says the ant, in his own little frenzy: "Suffer BITCH, SUFFER!!!"

- similar joke below -

An elephant was having a horrible time in the jungle because a horsefly
kept biting near her tail and there was nothing she could do about it.
It was far out of reach.

A sparrow saw this and killed the horsefly with its beak.
"Oh, thank you!" said the elephant.
"My, pleasure ma'am." said the sparrow.
"Listen, Mr. Sparrow, if there's anything I can ever do for you, don't
hesitate to ask."

The sparrow said, "Well, all my life I wondered how it would feel to fuck 
an elephant."
"Be my guest!", said the elephant.

So the sparrow flew behind the elephant and started fucking. In the trees
above, a monkey in the tree saw this and became very excited. He started to
masturbate, shaking a coconut loose and it fell from the tree, hitting the
elephant on the head.
"OUCH!", said the elephant.

Then sparrow looked over from behind and said, "Am I hurting you, dear?"

One afternoon, there was this good witch who was flying along, when all
of a sudden, she heard this soft crying from down below.  When she landed,
she say this yellow frog.  Touched by his sadness, the witch asked why he
was crying.

"Sniff.  None of the other frogs will let me join in all their frog games.
Boo hoo."

"Don't cry, little one.", replied the witch, and with a wave of her magic
wand, the frog turned green.  All happy now, the frog was checking himself
over when he noticed that his penis was still yellow.  He asked an embarrassed
witch about this, and she told him that there were some things that she just
couldn't do, but if he saw the wizard, he'd fix things up for him.  So
happily, the little green frog hippity-hopped along his merry way.

Feeling quick happy about herself, the witch once more took to the skies,
and once again, she heard some crying, but this time of a thunderous sort.
So down to the ground she flew only to discover a pink elephant.  The witch
asked him why he was crying.

"Sniff.  None of the other elephants will let me join in all their elephant
games.  Boo hoo."

Now if you have ever seen an elephant cry, you know it to be a pathetic 
looking sight, but a PINK elephant crying is just downright heart-breaking,
and that is just how the witch felt.  So once again, she waved her magic
wand, and *POOF*, the elephant was all grey.

All happy now, the elephant was checking himself all over when he noticed
that his penis was still pink.  He asked an embarrassed witch about this,
and she told him that there were some things that she just couldn't do, but
if saw the wizard, he would fix things up for him.

At this point, the elephant just started wailing.  "I don't know where the
wizard is", he sobbed.

"Oh that's easy.  Just follow the yellow pricked toad", said the good witch.

                PACHYDERMIC PERSONNEL PREDICTION
                        by Peter C. Olsen
                A bold new proposal for matching 
             high-technology people and professions

    Over the years, the problem of finding the right person for the 
    right job has consumed thousands of worker-years of research and 
    millions of dollars in funding.  This is particularly true for 
    high-technology organizations where talent is scarce and 
    expensive.  Recently, however, years of detailed study by the 
    finest minds in the field of psychoindustrial interpersonnel 
    optimization have resulted in the development of a simple and 
    foolproof test to determine the best match between personality 
    and profession.  Now, at last, people can be infallibly assigned 
    to the jobs for which they are truly best suited.

    The procedure is simple: Each subject is sent to Africa to hunt 
    elephants.  The subsequent elephant-hunting behavior is then 
    categorized by comparison to the classification rules outlined 
    below.  The subject should be assigned to the general job 
    classification that best matches the observed behavior.

    CLASSIFICATION GUIDELINES
    Mathematicians hunt elephants by going to Africa, throwing out 
    everything that is not an elephant, and catching one of whatever 
    is left.  Experienced mathematicians will attempt to prove the 
    existence of at least one unique elephant before proceeding to 
    step 1 as a subordinate exercise.  Professors of mathematics 
    will prove the existence of at least one unique elephant and then
    leave the detection and capture of an actual elephant as an 
    exercise for their graduate students.

    Computer scientists hunt elephants by exercising Algorithm A:
    1. Go to Africa.
    2. Start at the Cape of Good Hope.
    3. Work northward in an orderly manner, traversing the continent 
       alternately east and west.
    4. During each traverse pass,
       a. Catch each animal seen.
       b. Compare each animal caught to a known elephant.
       c. Stop when a match is detected.

    Experienced computer programmers modify Algorithm A by placing a 
    known elephant in Cairo to ensure that the algorithm will 
    terminate.  Assembly language programmers prefer to execute 
    Algorithm A on their hands and knees.

    Engineers hunt elephants by going to Africa, catching gray 
    animals at random, and stopping when any one of them weighs 
    within plus or minus 15 percent of any previously observed 
    elephant.

    Economists don't hunt elephants, but they believe that if 
    elephants are paid enough, they will hunt themselves.

    Statisticians hunt the first animal they see N times and call it
    an elephant. 

    Consultants don't hunt elephants, and many have never hunted 
    anything at all, but they can be hired by the hour to advise 
    those people who do.  Operations research consultants can also 
    measure the correlation of hat size and bullet color to the 
    efficiency of elephant-hunting strategies, if someone else will 
    only identify the elephants.

    Politicians don't hunt elephants, but they will share the 
    elephants you catch with the people who voted for them.

    Lawyers don't hunt elephants, but they do follow the herds around 
    arguing about who owns the droppings.  Software lawyers will 
    claim that they own an entire herd based on the look and feel of 
    one dropping.

    Vice presidents of engineering, research, and development try
    hard to hunt elephants, but their staffs are designed to prevent
    it.  When the vice president does get to hunt elephants, the
    staff will try to ensure that all possible elephants are
    completely prehunted before the vice president sees them.  If the
    vice president does see a nonprehunted elephant, the staff will 
    (1) compliment the vice president's keen eyesight and (2) enlarge 
    itself to prevent any recurrence.

    Senior managers set broad elephant-hunting policy based on the 
    assumption that elephants are just like field mice, but with 
    deeper voices.
    Quality assurance inspectors ignore the elephants and look for 
    mistakes the other hunters made when they were packing the jeep.

    Sales People don't hunt elephants but spend their time selling 
    elephants they haven't caught, for delivery two days before the 
    season opens.  Software sales people ship the first thing they 
    catch and write up an invoice for an elephant.  Hardware 
    sales people catch rabbits, paint them gray, and sell them as 
    desktop elephants.

    VALIDATION
    A validation survey was conducted about these rules.  Almost all 
    the people surveyed about these rules were valid.  A few were 
    invalid, but they expected to recover soon.  Based on the survey, 
    a statistical confidence level was determined.  Ninety-five 
    percent of the people surveyed have at least 67 percent 
    confidence in statistics.

    ACKNOWLEDGMENT
    This study has benefited from the suggestions and observations of 
    many people, all of whom would prefer not to be mentioned by 
    name.

Three scientists were one day discussing what would happen if they rammed a 
cork up an elephant's backside and force fed it for 2 weeks.  But because the
experiment had never been documented and the idea was hard to comprehend they
decided to have a go.  A week after the experiment had started they began to 
realize WHY the idea had never been tried, they were stuck for someone to 
pull the cork out.  

One of the scientists came up with the bright idea of training a monkey to
do the job, so they spent the next week training it to pull out corks once
a buzzer had rung, then push it back in for another go.  The big day arrived,
they set up all the monitoring equipment and set out to a safe distance.

The first scientist went 1 mile away, the second went 2 miles away and the
third went 3 miles.  When they were all ready the first scientist pushed
the button to sound the buzzer.

BBBAAANNNGGG!!!!!!! 

The third scientist (3 miles away) was up to his ankles in shit, the second
(2 miles away) was up to his knees and the first (1 mile away) was up to 
his waist.  When the others joined the scientist who was 1 mile away they
noticed that he was in fits of laughter.

"What the %$*& is so funny?" asked one of the scientist.

"You should have seen the monkey's face trying to get the cork back in!!!"

This joke involves an elephant who is walking through the jungle.
And all of a sudden he falls into a pit and is stuck there. The 
elephant is stuck in this pit and realises that he is going to die,
so naturally he start to scream. By chance a chicken hears the screaming
of the elephant and decides to investigate. He sees the elephant stuck
in the pit and shouts to the elephant: "Dont worry, I am going to 
save you". The chicken then calls on the King of the Jungle.

The King of the Jungle promptly arrives in his *Red Porsche*. He throws
a rope from the Porche into the pit, the elephant ties it around himself
and the King of the Jungle pulls him out of the pit. The elephant
is saved (loud applause). 

So grateful is the elephant to the chicken that he promises him that 
he will one day do the same for him (if the chicken should ever be
in mortal danger).

As chance would have it, the next week the elephant is walking thru'
the jungle and hears the screaming of a chicken. He wanders over
and sees that his friend the chicken is stuck in a pit. (ohh, gosh)
The elephant shouts "Don't worry chicken I will save you". So the 
elephant throws his tail into the pit. However this tail is too
small and the chicken cannot reach it. Undeterred by this the
elephant throws in his trunk, but, alas this also is too small.
As a last desperate effort the elephant throws in his his penis.
Sucess! The chicken grabs the elephants enormous penis and climbs
out to safety.

Moral of the story:
"If you have a big dick you don't need a red Porsche to pull a chick."

Father, mother and son decide to go to the zoo one day. So they set off
and are seeing lots of animals. Eventually they end up opposite the 
elephant house. The boy looks at the elephant, sees its willy points to it
and says, "Mummy, what is that long thing?"
His mother replies, "That son, is the elephant's trunk."
"No, at the other end."
"That son is the tail."
"No, mummy, the thing under the elephant"
A short embarrassed silenced after which she replies, "Thats nothing."
The mother goes to buy some ice-cream and the boy, not being satisfied
with her answer asks his father the same question.
"Daddy, what is that long thing?"
"That's the trunk, son" replies the father.
"No at the other end."
"Oh, that is the tail."
"No, no daddy, the thing below," asks the son in desperation.
"That is the elephants penis.  Why do you ask son?"
"Well mummy said it was nothing," says the boy.
Replies the father: "I tell you, I spoil that woman ..."

There was this tiger, who woke up one morning, and just felt great
   (yes, just like Tony the Tiger: GREAAAAAAT).

Anyway, he just felt so good, he went out and cornered a small monkey
and roared at him:
  "WHO IS THE MIGHTIEST OF ALL THE JUNGLE ANIMALS?"
And this poor quaking little monkey replied:
  "You are of course, no one is mightier than you."

A little while later this tiger confronts a deer, and just bellows out:
  "WHO IS THE GREATEST AND STRONGEST OF ALL THE JUNGLE ANIMALS?"
The deer is shaking so hard it can barely speak, but manages to stammer:
  "Oh great tiger, you are by far the mightiest animal in the jungle."

The tiger, being on a roll, swaggered, up to an elephant that was quietly
munching on some weeds, and roared at the top of his voice:
  "WHO IS THE MIGHTIEST OF ALL THE ANIMALS IN THE JUNGLE?"

Well, this elephant grabs the tiger with his trunk, picks him up, slams
him down; picks him up again, and shakes him until the tiger is just a
blur of orange and black; and finally throws him violently into a
nearby tree.

The tiger staggers to his feet and looks at the elephant and says:
  "Man, just because you don't know the answer, you don't have
   to get so pissed."

In the jungle there was once this elephant and a snake. They had a bitter 
rivalry about who was smarter. So the wise owl (who was their arbitrator) set
each of them a test. To the elephant he posed the problem of catching or
snookering the snake; the snake, on the other hand, had to surprise and 
astound the elephant.

Next day the snake crept up on the elephant; and within a blink of an eye
slithered up the elephant's trunk. The snake wriggled and wriggled up the
trunk, into the esophegus, down into the stomach, through the intestines, and
a minute later popped out of the elephant's arse, and said 'BOO!'

The elephant, clearly astounded, asked the snake to do it again; this was
truly a remarkable feat, and wanted to make sure it wasn't a fluke.

So the snake wiped himself on some grass, and slithered once more up the 
trunk, slipping and sliding through the elephant's digestive tract.

When the snake emerged a minute later, covered in shit, from the elephant's
rectum, the elephant shoved his trunk up his ass and said 'Snookered!'

                   How to Catch a White Elephant

Go to an place where there are white elephants.  Bring with you a
muffin (with raisins).  Climb a tree.  When the white elephant is close,
drop the muffin (with raisins) in front of it.  The white elephant will
be happy, and eat the muffin (with raisins).  White elephants like
muffins (with raisins).  Repeat this procedure for five days in a row.
  
After the fifth day, the white elephant will be used to its daily muffin
(with rasins).  The sixth day you climb the tree, bring with you a muffin
without rasins.  Drop the muffin as usual.  When the white elephant finds
out that the muffin lacks rasins, it will darken in anger.
  
And then you catch it the same way as an ordinary grey elephant.

[39]
Once upon a time, bad King John raised a mighty army and set
out to conquer the known world.  After a series of
successful campaigns, the remaining kings realized that
their lone efforts would never prevail.  They had to band
together under the leadership of the best general they had -
"George-the-Turk".

George the Turk had promised that he would defeat bad King
John's army and would place him on a rack - in a public
display - so that no one would ever again try to conquer the
world.

While George the Turk was assembling his army and scouting
out bad King John, he also ordered his engineers to design
and build the largest rack here-to-fore made.  The rack was
then fitted with wheels and required 40 horses to pull it.
When all was ready, George the Turk set out to do battle.

Bad King John, who was camped by a river enjoying the spoils
of his latest victory, had not yet gotten word of George the
Turk's army.  George the Turk knew that his army must attack
quickly before Bad King John could prepare a defense.  But,
alas, the 40 horse team pulling the large rack could not
keep up with the troops.  George the Turk ordered more
horses to be teamed, but, still they lagged.  George the
Turk remembered that Hannibul was not too far away in the
mountains with a herd of elephants.  Elephants would be
better than horses for pulling the rack.  So, George the
Turk sent his second-in-command to Hannibul to rent enough
elephants for the job.  Hannibul agreed and also sent along
his best elephant handler.

This elephant handler quickly realized the importance of his
unique position in George the Turk's army and insisted that
he be given the title of "elephant engineer" and a huge pay
raise.  George the Turk agreed with the title and the pay
raise.

The rack, powered by elephants and driven by the "elephant
engineer" , kept pace with the rapidly moving army.

Late one night they arrived at the enemy camp by the river.
George the Turk deployed his troops to cut off any avenue of
escape and issued the order to attack at dawn - on his
command.  He also ordered the rack to be positioned on the
highest hill overlooking bad King John's camp.  This site
was the perfect spot to publically display bad King John -
to show the world what happens to anyone who dares to try to
conquer the world.

With dawn approaching George the Turk goes to the top of the
hill beside the rack so that everyone can see his command to
attack: when his sword drops ---ATTACK !!!!!

All is quiet.  The enemy camp is asleep.  Every man is
waiting for the signal.  The first ray of sunlight strikes
the helmet of George the Turk.  He draws his sword slowly
and holds it over his head.  The sunlight gleams off the
blade --- and scares the elephants that are hitched to the
rack.  They start trumpeting and rearing and the elephant
engineer can't control then.  He drops the reins and clings
onto the rack for dear life.  The rack breaks loose from the
team and starts rolling down the hill -- straight for the
enemy camp.

All this noise wakes bad King John.  He orders an aide to go
outside the tent to see what is the cause.  The aide takes a
hard look, comes back into the tent, and reports:

"As near as I can tell --
   It's a rambling rack from George the Turk with an elephant engineer" !!!
