    Good thing Garfield wasn’t around in the reign of Her Majesty Victoria. (When saying Abe populated the US with elephants, did he mean Republicans?)

    So many elephants in the wild here would have deforested the place faster and more thoroughly than people have.

    I’m convinced there’s a treatment for tumors to be synthesized from brown recluse spider venom (due to its vasoconstrictive quality), if only some biochemist would develop it.

    Venom is a wonderful pain medication. You don’t feel a thing… ever… again! :D

    and of course you know that the great emancipator, in order to solve the ‘black’ problem, wanted to send the blacks back to Africa because even then, ole honest Abe said, ‘their culture will destroy America’s culture.’ Little did he or anyone else, for that matter, know how true that was – and today, ‘is’!

    Note that scorpions have 8 legs. The limbs with the pincers are not regarded as legs. Notice they grow from near the mouth.

    I remember a scene in “The King and I” in which the King of Siam offered elephants to Abraham Lincoln for the War Between the States.
