And finally: How do you catch an elephant?
You will need a jam-jar with a firm lid, a telescope, a black-board and a piece of chalk. And a jungle with elephants, of course.
Go to the jungle. Write 2+2=5 on the blackboard. All the elephants will come running and be paralyzed with laughter. While they are busy laughing, turn the telescope the wrong way around and use it to look at the elephants. As they are now very small, you can easily pick them up and put them in the glass and close the lid.
