Monday's Joke of the Day:
Many
people are unaware that Frank Sinatra was an ecologist.
He found out that
the herds of animals in Africa were being forced off their native lands
into game reserves where they were more apt to be eaten by their natural
enemies due to the crowded conditions.
These animals would
congregate around lakes and other bodies of water, but had nowhere to
run if they were attacked by their foes. This resulted in abnormal losses
in the herds.
Frank, upon finding
out about this, donated a lot of money to trying to find out where there
may be some open land to put the animals so they wouldn't be so crowded.
Frank's idea was to go to the watering holes and load the animals on large
barges and take them to other lands and then set them free.
In order to accomplish
this, he had to finance his work through a best-selling song about it.
We've all heard the song before. It starts out . . . "Start spreading
the Gnus..."
The title of the song
was, of course, . . "New Ark, New Ark."

Bonus Joke:
Richard Crenna has
starred in many TV series including "The Real McCoys" and "Our
Miss Brooks" as well as appearing in many motion pictures. However,
he would be the first to tell you that he is best remembered for his part
in an adventure trilogy. In fact if you asked him he would probably burst
into song. What song would he sing? I'm
Always Chasing Rambos.
