    There's a whole series of books, and there was an animated series based on them that aired on HBO when I was a kid. Strange concept. Elephant's mom gets shot like Bambi's did, and the elephant is rescued by an old French woman and taken back to Paris. He grows up, and somehow or other, he becomes king of the elephants upon his return to Africa. His rival is an angry rhinoceros, if memory serves. Adventures and life lessons ensue.

    I'm starting to get the feeling that this thread was started as a joke. Either that, or the inside jokes are way over my head.

    I'm afraid I'm going to have to pull rank on you. I'm with the mattress police. There are no tags on any of these matresses.

    It was so much easier to play along when you limited your inside reference threads to The Simpsons.

    It was something your wife said while we were in bed together. She said we had the same build. From the waist up I imagine.
