From another report - Police say the 29-year-old elephant had escaped...

"Didn't have time to hit the brakes. The elephant blended in with the road," driver Bill Carpenter said Thursday. "At the very last second I said 'elephant!'"

Now that's a funny line right there.

So that is the where the expression “Have you seen the elephant” comes from in pioneer days.

For some reason, this makes me want big fake tusks on the front of my SUV. I can see the libs mouths drop now.
