Once upon a time, there was a hungry elephant,named Dan. He ate all day. Ten square meals to be exact. His sister complained that he was too fat, but he just said

" Oh, well."

His mother said

"You should go on a diet."

The next day he cut it down to nine meals a day. He kept cutting down on meals. Then he got hungry. So, he kept eating. A couple days later, a baby elephant said

" You're a pig! "

Dan replied

" I'm not a pig, I'm Dan the hungry elephant."
