Coming soon: Halfbakery. [hello_c, Mar 02 2001, last modified Oct 04 2004] We rented an elephant for a birthday party once. It had a big banner that said "HAPPY BIRTHDAY", and we all got to go for rides. It came with a trainer, and was quite well-behaved.
But what would anyone do with a donkey? Play that quintessential birthday-party favorite, "stick a pin in the donkey's tail, get kicked in the teeth, visit the hospital, and undergo facial reconstruction surgery"?-- egnor, Mar 02 2001 Just don't open it next to my Rent-A-Moose store.-- dredcat7, Mar 03 2001 Prehaps donkeys could be used in car-less theme parks such as an Amish version of Westworld. For pedestrians donkey could be quite useful - why I would happily use labrador panniers for my dogs if I could find them. However a donkey could carry more, of course.-- Aristotle, Mar 05 2001, last modified Mar 06 2001 Does it cost extra if you're going to use it in a barnyard fun video? huh, cornell, huh!? baseball makes me happy-- bigdaddyfatfat, Mar 06 2001 random, halfbakery
