Not the greatest product but a vg add as many who watched finished the last sentence with,

Remember elephant jokes? The object was to be totally ridiculous. For example, the first one I ever heard: How can you tell if an elephant has been in your refrigerator? Answer: Footprints in the jello.
A couple more: What did Tarzan say when he saw the elephants coming over the hill? Answer: Here comes the elephants. What did Tarzan say when he saw the elephants coming over the hill wearing sunglasses? Answer: He didn’t say anything because he didn’t recognize them.
Question: How do you kill a blue elephant?
Answer: You shoot him with a blue elephant gun.
Question: How do you kill a red elephant?

We have lived thru many momentous events, this was surely one of the most tragic ( most tragic of course was 911).
Some other events not so tragic: Alaska and Hawaii becoming the 49th and 50th states of the USA; the creation of zip codes; the creation of the Super Bowl; a president actually resigning his job; landing on the moon; the first African American president; the creation of cable TV; the creation of the internet.
Probably many more that I left out that others can supply.
