How do you hide an elephant? In plain sight you can hide it from the blind. How do you know if there is an elephant in your fridge? Watch for the tracks in the butter dish. How do elephants descend from trees? They sit on a leaf and wait until autumn How do elephants disguise themselves? They wear dark glasses. What did Tarzan say when he saw a herd of elephants coming over the hill? Here come the walking towers... No... it is a herd of elephants with soldiers on their backs. What did Tarzan say when he saw a herd of elephants wearing sunglasses with soldiers on their backs coming over the hill? No... I was right the first time.. it is just walking towers How do you get 2 Whales in a mini? Down the M4... Or did you say Scotland or Ireland? How do you get 4 whales in a mini? Two in the front two in the back. Why do the elephants have big ears? Noddy won't pay the ransom... African or Ascian?

This is a Marx brothers type joke. It's like "to get to the other side" . . . the practical answer to a ridiculous question.

I don't get this one either, but what I really don't get is what these jokes have to do with Gene Wolfe. It's one thing to hear the same arguments about soul/spirit/body fifteen times with different words, but at least it's on topic.
