A recent car accident involving an elephant reminded me of an old Finnish
joke! A circus train derailed in a rural part of Finland & many of the animals
escaped, an elephant made its way to a farm many miles off the main road
owned by an elderly couple that had never traveled much beyond their parish.
The old woman was preparing lunch for her husband when she spotted a huge
unknown beast in her garden & called the sheriff about it pulling carrots up
with its tail! The sheriff asked "what is it doing with the carrots"! "She said,
sheriff...you've got to come see that for yourself"!!!
