Elephun Wednesday

Hey!  Grab a cerveza a burrito and a sombrero.  It's time to celebrate Cinco De Mayo.  Sorry it's so late.  We know that Cinco De Mayo is actually on April 23rd.

Elephun Wednesday Anniversary!!

Today is a very special day.  Today is the two year anniversary of Elephun Wednesday.  That's right, we have been doing this for two years.  If there is one thing you can say about the Shipping Monkeys it is that they never let anything go.  So I'm sure we will have many more anniversaries. 

The very first Elephun Wednesday picture was this one:

Here are a few others that you may remember...

I don't have room to put them all up here.  But they are all posted on this blog so you can go back and revisit them all.  Which one was your favorite?  Can you even pick just one?  There have been a lot of great pictures in the last two years. 

Have fun on this very special day and celebrate by adopting an elephant today.

Elephun Wednesday

This very athletic guy is competing in... rock throwing?  (I'm sure that's not the real name but I don't care.)  And I'm sure he is going to win.  He has elephant arms after all so he is very strong.  he should just be careful because his kilt is getting a bit high.  And no one wants to see that.  Except for maybe Henry.  But we won't talk about that.

Elephun Wednesday

I go to Philly and leave these guys alone for one week and this is what happens.  I don't even know what to say about this.  I mean, what is even going on? 

This goofy bastard has finally finished his race.  It must have been a long one because it looks like he has been running it for two years.  Congratulations!!

This one is a special request from Fishy Fishy.  It is apparently an album cover from a band that only Fishy Fishy has ever heard of.  It's definitely weird.  But I like it.

Can you guess what this Elephun Wednesday picture is in honor of? And the best part?  It's not just a picture.  It's a video.  Click here to see it.

So, it's Holy Week and what better way to honor this very solemn occasion than with a pope themed Elephun Wednesday.  That is one huge peanut.  I hope the pope appreciates the sacrifice that this elephant is making in giving up such a prize. 

Happy Birthday!!!!!

 

Today is Babbit's birthday!  And to celebrate I baked him a cake.  Well, that was actually yesterday.  And several people pointed out that he should have had his cake on his birthday.  Yeah, yeah, yeah, green relish.  I baked the stupid cake when I had time to bake the stupid cake and it seemed stupid to let it sit around for a day getting stale before I brought it in.  So there. 

Anyhow...

Babbit, and everyone else liked the awesome coconut three layer cake.  And it was rather pretty, if I do say so myself.

And then today, for his birthday lunch, that we ate on his actual birthday, he picked Tutto's.  That is always a good choice.  So good job on that one, Babbit.
