Elephants are our friends. Fraaammmmpp.

The end of 2004 was horrible for my family and me personally, but exponentially so for the millions of people affected by the tsunamis. It was good to see a story about survival amidst so many stories of death and destruction. Sadly, these stories were few and far between, but they were out there. Related to the prescient elephant story, there was this interesting article about the strange lack of animal carcasses amongst the debris. A bit morbid, I'll admit, but still fascinating. Sorry.

And with that, I promise that only funny stories will be posted from here on out. Goodbye 2004 and good riddance.

UPDATE: Further proof that elephants are our friends.
