Gee. All Groucho Marx ever got in his pajamas was an elephant.
(Young enough not to remember the joke first run, but old enough to appreciate good humor when I see/hear/read it!) 🙂 😀
Maybe it was a Jumbo jet…
.
Cheers.
Probably the same way Nigel Tufnel got armadillos in his trousers.
I hear he wanted to leave in a huff but it took more like a minute and a huff.

I love this headline on Yahoo:
Obama says Honduran president’s ouster wasn’t a ‘legal’ coup
.
Of course, what Obama actually said was “It would be a terrible precedent if we start moving backwards into the era in which we are seeing military coups as a means of political transition rather than democratic elections.”
.
But the headline makes for a great WTF moment doesn’t it? After all, who would consider any coup to be legal.
“Why, Mr. Dickinson, I’m surprised at you. You should know that revolution is always legal in the first person, such as, ‘Our Revolution.’ It’s only in the third person, ‘their revolution,’ that it’s illegal.
— Benjamin Franklin, “1776”
ZING!
Peter, if you had been able to work in the Tuscalousa follow up line, I would be truly impressed in stead of just normal impressed
Okay, guess I’m not that old (yet) – what’s the Tuscaloosa followup line?
From the original “How the elephant got in my pajamas…” line. The follow up line is “So we tried to remove the tuss… which is hard to say, and it is hard to do too, except in Alabama where the Tuscalousa”
I was with him. We flew to Africa to play cards with the natives…
Oh, Zulus?
Zulus?
Zulus?
No, we won most of the time.
(THANK YOU!!!)
Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana.
We took pictures of the native girls but they’re not developed yet.
So we’re going back next year
What was funny about Groucho’s joke was that both meanings were semantically plausible.
Way to botch it.
Groucho was always up for some antics… pause for groan and grabbing of side…
