Right!
And like F451, that show is still a pertinent wonderment.

L: "Tuscaloosa" is a really cool word! Is that indicative of all of its residents as well?!

One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas, I don't know.
Then we tried to remove the tusks. The tusks. That's not so easy to say. Tusks.
You try it some time. As I say, we tried to remove the tusks. But they were embedded so firmly we couldn't budge them.
Of course, in Alabama the Tuscaloosa, but that is entirely ir-elephant to what I was talking about.

No, I'm atypical. Nevertheless, hardcopy dosseiers of all are enroute to the mothership. A non-punitive measure I assure you. Big Grin

"Tuscaloosa!" "Non-punitive!" Exactly and precisely.

Ha! That's why I stumble by this RB site on occasion. Someone always leaves a light on so we can share in the Lollapalooza!
