Also if you look at the elphant to people death ratio its like 3 to 1. So if you see a dead Elephant call everyone you know there is a good chance they might have been Elephanted.

Is it just me, or are they saying that the elephants and farmers have gone to war with each other.

[Mighty_Wingman]

Well the Elephants were acting kinda shifty, and the farmers had word from an informant linking them to Al Queda and confirming their suspicions that the elephants were, indeed setting up chemical and biological weapons labs. <font color="white"> Though no such labs have yet been found. </font color>

"The Elephants who have risen up against the occupation are not 'insurgents' or 'terrorists' or 'The Enemy.' They are the REVOLUTION, the Minutemen, and their numbers will grow -- and they will win."

- Babar, King of Elephants.

These poor elephants are just fighting for their right to trample villagers, the mediators have no right to interfere with their unalienable rights to trample annoying-ass villagers who try to ride them to their nearest Walmart.

Speaking of which... has anyone seen the movie ELEPHANT by Gus Van Sant? I had no clue what it was about when I saw it... sheeesh. What a heavy subject. When the kid walks out and his friends walk up to him and warn him, and then he tries to warn people not to go in... you will just have to see it. But man, I got chills. Taken directly from a real event.

[Rico]

Yeah Mark and I saw that movie... crazy stuff.

That video game the dude was playing sucked big time though, they should really put more thought into what they show these deranged kids playing. Maybe they just went crazy because their games sucked ad-infinitum?

[Razorback]

Well, the real guys apparently went crazy on Doom (which is ridiculous). The point of the movie really wasn't about the games as much as their inability to let go of their pain and blame.

[marksiwel]

I found "Elephant" much better than "Bowling for Columbine".The part that blew me away (no pun) was the way everyone got hung up about the "gay" kiss. Hell these kids were off their rocker who cares what they kiss.

Speaking of Bowling ...Rico's Elphant Quote, which is a Micheal Moore quote, but Iraqi was changed to Elephants: is just a great piece of satire Three Cheers!

[Wolverine]

You think that the elephants are sporting or hiding any missile silo's? Or chemical weapons? I'm rooting for the Elephants!

Abegunawardana lost last year's bitter gourd crop to trampling elephants

[/ QUOTE ] Wouldn't it be considered a good thing to lose a crop of bitter gourds?

Maybe they only became bitter after they were trampled.

[Mighty_Wingman]

I think if I were trampled by an Elephant I would be bitter about it ... and probably, a bit squishy as well.
