benson@odi.com (09/11/89)

Can anyone supply the poet and remaining content of the poem that
begins:

Once there was an elephant
that tried to use the telephant
Oh no I mean an elephone
who tried to use the telephone

?

The "humor" issue was great!  More in the future, please.

After successfully passing the bar exam, a man opened his own law
office. He was sitting idle at his desk when his secretary announced
that a Mr. Jones had arrived to see him. "Show him right in!" our
lawyer replied. As Mr. Jones was being ushered in our lawyer had an
idea. He quickly picks up the phone and shouts into it "..and you tell
them that we won't accept less then fifty thousand dollars, and don't
even call me until you agree to that amount!"  Slamming the phone down
he stood up and greeted Mr. Jones; "Good Morning, Mr.  Jones, what can
I do for you?"

"I'm from the phone company" Mr. Jones replied, "I'm here to connect
your phone."
