On News and Fuzzy Elephants

My mother regularly watches ABC News' This Week with George Stephanopoulos, and sometimes shares with me and my father something that she heard him say.

My mother, however, often has trouble remembering names, and his multi-syllabic one is more difficult than most. So today at lunch, when she made reference to an item she'd heard from him, she tried to tell us who said it, and couldn't think of the name. So she floundered for a minute, and then said to my dad, "...oh, you know -- the elephant!"
