"squirrel, i was on my way to see you. but then i got lost. the elephant" the squirrel read the note a couple of times, thought deeply, and wrote: "elephant, where did you get lost? the squirrel" it was a strange question, he thought. but he had no idea what else to write, so he sent his note anyway. soon, a reply arrived.
