I don't get it either. Why announce it like he's proud of it as a policy position when he could just push it through if they manage to win a majority? Who sent him out in front of the cameras to talk about it? The only thing I can think of is that maybe he's being deliberately set up for a spill because he's so obviously out of touch and un-electable.

Although the use of war elephants in the western Mediterranean is most famously associated with the wars between Carthage and Roman Republic, the introduction of war elephants there was primarily the result of an invasion by Hellenistic era Epirus across the Adriatic Sea. King Pyrrhus of Epirus brought twenty elephants to attack Roman Italy at the battle of Heraclea in 280 BC, leaving some fifty additional animals, on loan from Ptolemaic Pharaoh Ptolemy II, on the mainland. The Romans were unprepared for fighting elephants, and the Epirot forces routed the Romans. The next year, the Epirots again deployed a similar force of elephants, attacking the Romans at the battle of Asculum. This time the Romans came prepared with flammable weapons and anti-elephant devices: these were ox-drawn wagons, equipped with long spikes to wound the elephants, pots of fire to scare them, and accompanying screening troops who would hurl javelins at the elephants to drive them away. A final charge of Epirot elephants won the day again, but this time Pyrrhus had suffered very heavy casualties – a Pyrrhic victory.

The use of war elephants over the centuries has left a deep cultural legacy in many countries. Many traditional war games incorporate war elephants. There is piece in chess called Elephant. While Englishmen call that piece bishop, it is called Gajam in Sanskrit. In Malayalam, it is called Aana (ആന), meaning elephant. In Russian, too, it is an elephant (Слон). In Bengali, the bishop is called hati, Bengali for "elephant". It is called an elephant in Chinese chess. In Arabic – and derived from it, in Spanish – the bishop piece is called al-fil, Arabic for "elephant".

It was four wheel drive, so it may have been a manual transmission for off-roading, which would be fairly common in those parts. The fact that it was brand new suggests the possibility that they didn't realize a manual can roll on a steep incline if the handbrake isn't engaged (of course it could also have simply been left in neutral, regardless of the transmission type).
She'll promise you more than the garden of Eden
Then she'll carelessly cut you and laugh while you're bleedin'
But she'll bring out the best - and the worst - you can be
Blame it all on yourself 'cause she's always a woman to me

true: a couple of weeks back, heard a guy telling somebody on CB that he and his friend found an antenna tower section on the side of the road and took it home on a mustang.
it gets a bit unsettling and empty when you get into your 40s.
that's a mid life crisis. I'm glad having a kid helped you through it. Also a better option than running away with a hooker, maybe.
