Eric said...: The music that accompanied this trick was a late 1960’s pop tune, the lyrics for which went, “Those were the days, my friend. We thought they’d never end.” It actually fit the gypsy mood quite nicely.; 18 April, 2009 10:05

Incredibly, when I worked the act 25 years later, she was still doing this trick and would jump right into it, no hesitation.; 18 April, 2009 10:17
Chic Silber said...: Is there (or was there) some

protocol in place for who gets

to name the elephants and is

there any general reasoning

for the names (other than the

obvious when named for people)
