Elephant Jokes

Rusty:  Hey, Micah, where would you find an elephant?

Micah:  I don't know.  Perhaps Jan could tell you, although I doubt it.  She can't remember where to find the checkbook.

Rusty:  Checkbook - is Jan planning to buy an elephant?

Micah:  Not that I know of, but she just might if there's a good sale.

Rusty:  But where would you find an elephant?

Micah:  Possibly on Amazon.  Amazon sells just about everything.

Rusty:  I don't want to buy one.  I'm asking where would you find an elephant?

Micah:  I wouldn't.  I don't want one.

Rusty:  You don't have to want one.  I'm trying to tell a joke.  

Micah:  Okay, so where would I find an elephant?

Rusty:  You don't have to find elephants; they're too big to lose.

Micah:  That's it?  That's your joke?   What brought this on?

Rusty:   Last month we published a zebra joke post and  The Poodle and Dog blog asked if we have an elephant joke. 

Micah:  And that's the best you can muster?

Rusty:  Well, I could ask why elephants have short tails.

Micah:  What do you mean by short tails - short for an elephant or short for a dog?

Rusty:  There is no dog in this joke.

Micah:  Don't get upset.  I was just asking.

Rusty:  Okay, why do elephants have short tails for elephants?

Micah:  I give up.

Rusty:  Because they can't remember long stories.

Micah:  I thought elephants have a long memory.

Rusty:  They do, and so do I.  You just ruined two of my jokes.

Micah:  Does this mean you won't play second banana when I want to tell a joke?

Rusty:  What do you think?
