I'd like to buy an elephant.

Marvelous, wonderful. Would you like that in gray?

Yes, since elephants are usually gray...

Excellent! Let me take you over here; this is where we keep our very best pelicans!

Yeah, but I wanted an elephant...

Of course, of course! We also have these superb gerbils!

Why are you pointing a shotgun at me?????

Shotgun? That's the trunk of an elephant...
