Why do you have to make things so difficult, always?
Can't you just ask "Where's the pink Elephant?" or "Where's the blue Elephant?"

Why d'ye think they're colour coded, anyway, huh?

Max, does it behoove you to ask that question, right now? And does anyone realize we have it on good information that there might be ivory poachers amongst us? Did anyone ever play Ten Little Indians ala Agatha Christie, or in this case Ten Little Elephants? Will we ever out the real ivory poachers before they do our animals in?

WADers don't wade below the tide line

Isn't this a fantastic sentence that incorporates some AWAD wit, is very vivid, and describes a place on the screen that doesn't have a clear name?
