#4 That's nothing compared to the old lady who had swallowed a horse, which had swallowed a cow, which had swallowed a goat, which had swallowed a dog, which had swallowed a cat, which had swallowed a bird, which had swallowed a spider, which had eaten a fly.

and little fleas have lesser fleas
and so, ad infinitum.

#9 Even a new specias? of GIANT TRICERATOPS. At this rate, the only thing NORAM = AMERICAS won't have is GODZILLA, MOTHRA or BEAST FROM 20000 FATHOMS FOSSILS - YET [Dragnet/Star Wars Empire theme here].
