So reading the article is not required prior to submitting it?

Sampson is my second-favorite elephant from Baltimore.

That's right...we don't want a headline about an animal born in a zoo unless it is referred to as 'ugly-assed'. All future subby's please take note. Thank you.

Elephants should not be kept in captivity.

I`ve been told I look like an elephant,,,,,,,from the waist down.

 
Impooter 2008-08-23 08:15:15 PM  
Why do people throw in the "p" in "Sampson". They do it with "hampster" too! Are they the left over p's from when they butcher the word pumpkin into "punkin?"

Who was the father?

I used to volunteer at a small city zoo (Santa Ana). There is nothing more humbling to the human experience than to spend a bunch of time amongst our fellow animal species to realize humans aren't so special.

Elephants are teh awesome.

ohhhh. Nice and tender.

I'll take mine with a nice rosemary dry rub, maybe with some risotto on the side.

And fresh bread. Hot and straight from the oven.

 
GoodasGold 2008-08-23 08:38:53 PM  
When is someone going to break the news to him that he is in Baltimore?

Big deal. Post this on Fark again when he's able to use apples to do calculus.

No, no, I'm fairly sure the Samsons elephant was called Stampy.

Who are the Samsons? Some cheap-ass knock-off? Dare I say, the Chinese version? Underage and spelled wrong?

 
Wulfhardt 2008-08-23 09:25:58 PM  
How can you misspell a name when it's already spelled-out for you in black & white, right there in the article?

Cute elephant tho.

All you gotta do is unstrap that burlap sack full of shiat from your ass and you can at least pass for a baboon.

You're thinking of The Samsungs, and they're from Korea.

 
Johnny Mash 2008-08-23 09:52:57 PM  
Actually so are the Simpsons

 
bmihura 2008-08-23 09:56:25 PM  
When's the last time anything good has come from Baltimore?

Hopefully the little elephant doesn't get stolen.

 
berylman 2008-08-23 09:59:27 PM  
Baby elephant? Intravenous Cutty Sark stat!

daverrod: Elephants should not be kept in captivity.

Agreed. While most other zoos are working on phasing out elephant exhibits this place is breeding them.

That's going to take a lot of barbecue sauce.

 
Third Day Mark 2008-08-23 10:59:15 PM  
Me & Samson, went to the store.
And ol' Samson, left craters in the floor.

/Forgets who sings that

 
Inflatable Rhetoric 2008-08-23 11:05:32 PM  
I didn't see Sampson mentioned. Samson.

Captain Coffee 2008-08-24 01:04:56 AM  
I was able to play with three baby elephants in Thailand a few years ago. They are like big puppies that will accidentally knock you to the ground. Man they were cute!
I love elephants.

 
Sweet Potato Pie 2008-08-24 01:32:26 AM  
Do not forget how intelligent elephants are. AND, if you mess wid them, dey memories be unforgettable! Stay on yo side of de fense.

I would have named him Stampy!

....would like to have a word with Sampson.

if you like baby elephants, might i suggest catching an episode or 2 of Elephant Diaries on the animal planet. great show, but sometimes a little heartbreaking.
