It's Elephant Appreciation Day!



Share these elephant jokes with your favorite silly person:

What's the difference between eating an elephant and eating peanut butter?
Elephants don't stick to the roof of your mouth.


What is large and gray and goes around and around in circles?
An elephant stuck in a revolving door.


Who's the most famous female singing elephant?
Elephants Gerald.

Why did the elephant cross the road?
To squash the chicken on the other side!

(Hey wait! Don't share that one!)

Please Join Us



It was on this day in 1966 that The Road Runner premiered. So, at exactly 3:39 pm, we are asking everyone to say "meep meep" in honor of this highly momentous moment in showbiz history.

Think of it. All over the world, people pausing during their busy day to pay homage to the show that put Acme Corporation on the map.

So meep with us people! But please, refrain from shoving anvils off of cliffs. It's just not safe.

It's National Chicken Month!


Flap your wings and strut your stuff! It's National Chicken Month, Peeps! Here are just a few ways to celebrate:
Remove Formatting from selection
1) Spend one whole day clucking instead of talking. Think how annoying this could be!

Boss: Do you have that report finished yet?

You: Cluck?

Boss: What's that supposed to mean?

You: Cluck, cluck, cluck.

Boss: I need it by noon!

You: CLUCK!

And on and on.

A less daring way to celebrate National Chicken Month might be to play The Chicken Dance song while eating an egg salad sandwich, or hey, read a chicken book! Need some suggestions? Okay, here you go!
