Hippotamus In A Tree!

“ya right.”

“d' dang tree limb broke and four pygmies got squashed!”

“Better than an airplane on yer little finger!”

“Only four? Small hippo.”

“I didn't wanna be outdone.. and we already had squirrels, hawks and dogs.. I figured we needed something huge.

I thought about an elephant.. but liked hippo.. you know.. I prolly should have titled it..

Oprah In a Tree!”

“How many pigmies can you fit on the back of a hippo?

In an airplane? Suppose they crashed who would survive the pigmies or the hippo?”

“I wash my hands of both of you!”

“'steve hiker' is turning into 'steve hypothetical'!”

“Skully, did you have to use clorox to get us off?”

“rad: steve surreal, I think.

TD: yes, and then follow up with Febreeze! (j/k ; P)”

“I can't speak for Steve Hiker, but I have heard that I sometimes have a lingering aftertaste and odor, so prolly a good idea.”

“For 45 years at Disneyland on the "Jungle Boat Cruise" the skipper of the boat used to shoot blanks at the hippos. Some to them used to shoot at hippos "in the trees" too. Good fun and great jokes. Then a year ago "politically correctness" took over and they took away the guns. Now they use really stupid jokes, like "Listen to the baby hippos calling for their mothers........(mama...mama)?

BRING BACK THE GUNS AND THE OLD JOKES!

Thanks for starting this thread...I had to get this off my chest.”

“Phil - You just hit another of my names, "Skipper." In another string I already exposed that I am known as "Uncle" to my Chinese relatives and friends in their realm.

At the local pool hall I am officially recognized as "Skipper." This came about years ago when I was heavier and they wanted me to play "Skipper" at Halloween Time, based on the character in Gillian's Island. I now have a picture of myself standing under a street sign of that name in a "town" (one house) of the same name. It is located in NC along I-95, just north of the SC border.”

“No more cap guns?.. oh my gosh.. that ride has got to really SUCK now!”

“nowslimmer - Cool! You need to scan that picture so we can add it to you photo page!”

“TownDawg - It's not the same. Mostly I go on the ride hoping the skipper has some new jokes or addlibs. Some of them are really good.”

“So is there a picture becuase I want to see it?”

“Does anyone remember the game hungry hungry hippo?”

“Yes I do.
I even remember the jingle.”

“Cool I used to play that game alot when I was younger in age..:)”

“this for all of you young at heart. I think it's the cutiest thing I ever heard. The story is kind of neat too.
