Our whole family was imitating "I'm a Ganu--a ganother ganu!" and everyone else though we had totally lost it.

I'm pleasantly amazed someone other than myself remembers Flanders and Swann:

I'm a Gnu, ,A g-nother gnu

I wish I could g-nash my teeth at you!

I'm a Gnu, How do you do

You really ought to k-now w-ho's w-ho.

I'm a Gnu Spelt G-N-U,

Call me Bison or Okapi and I'll sue

G-nor am I the least

Like that dreadful Hartebeest,

Oh, g-no, g-no, g-no,

G-no g-no g-no I'm a Gnu

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
