Elephant Paints Self Portrait
I kept expecting this to be a joke. And then I decided it was a hoax because you hardly ever see the entire elephant while the painting is taking place, but apparently it's true. The elephant follows the commands of the man who tells it when to start and stop a stroke. Amazing to me because this elephant follows directions better than my own children.

Dennis thinks elephants are just big showoffs. Dennis could paint a picture of a cat if he had opposable thumbs... or an elephant's trunk.

You have missed a lot of classes at the Uni, but we are keeping you at "holding status" until you return.

In your honor, we have upgraded "holding status" to "sleeping Beauty status" Jenny Ha Ha, First Sleeping Beauty of Chedwick U. (and yes there will be a plaque)

I got a bottle of perfume for my b'day that has a gold elephant on its cap--how weird it that? It has zero to do with anything. Perhaps, though, now that I think about this post, the perfumer was an elephant. Hunters who killed elephant for their tusks, discovered that after awhile large numbers of female elephants would surround a male, and help him hide his tusks from view when the hunters flew over in their small airplanes--the hunters viewed herds from above looking for tusks and the elephants came to associate a low flying airplane with butchery and tusk removal.

What is the world coming to when an Elephant can paint better than me?
And things are definitely better when you get to blog too!
