Anyway, he just felt so good, he went out and cornered a small monkey and roared at him: WHO IS THE MIGHTIEST OF ALL THE JUNGLE ANIMALS? And this poor quaking little monkey replied: 'you are of course, no one is mightier than you'. A little while later this tiger confronts a deer, and just bellows out: 'WHO IS THE GREATEST AND STRONGEST OF ALL THE JUNGLE ANIMALS?' The deer is shaking so hard it can barely speak, but manages to stammer: 'oh great tiger, you are by far the mightiest animal in the jungle'. The tiger, being on a roll, swaggered, up to an elliphant which was quitely munching on some weeds, and roared at the top of his voice: 'WHO IS THE TRULY MIGHTIEST OF ALL THE ANIMALS IN THE JUNGLE?' Well, this elliphant grabs the tiger with his trunk, picks him up, slams him down; picks him up again, and shakes him untill the tiger is just a blur of orange and black; and finally throws him violently into a nearby tree. The tiger shakely gets to his feet and looks at the elliphant and says: 'Just because you don't know the answer, you don't have to get upset'. -Jim
