There once was a elephant, a monkey and an ant. One day the
ant was out looking for food, and the elephant stepped on him.
The monkey was standing there and he started to talk about the
elephant so bad, the elephant started crying. The monkey asked
him how do you know if he didn't have a family, and was out
looking for food for them. The elephant replied, "I didn't know.
I was only trying to trip him.
