Mixing beer with elephants. Metal elephants. Antique Elephants. It's the Elephants Collector's Page. By the way, have you ever seen an elephant fly? Now you have.

I think October 8th should be, from now into the future, MeFi Elephant Day.

I was just going to say- yes, indeed it must be Elephant Day

Happy Elephant Day, everyone.

But wait- what about "Elephants on a Plane"?

Btw- the thing above was supposed to be a a brilliantly funny elephant boy graphic- however, I'm apparently a dumb newbie, and Metafilter is confounding me a bit. Someday I'll discover how to delete comments and everything!

When my brother was a baby he had a stuffed elephant that he carried with him everywhere. He couldn't say "elephant" yet, so he called it a "fenten".

I figure this is as good a place to relate that story as any.

Alas, I fear the that discussion I hoped to ignite has been lost in all the Elephant Day hoopla. It's becoming just another Hallmark Holiday...

Sept. 22nd is Elephant Day, unless you're Thai.
