CHAMBER OF COMMERCE LUNCHEON OF THE MONTH SO FAR
Key Quote: As Thane Maynard, executive director of the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Gardens, flipped Cruncher, a two-foot alligator onto his back for a demonstration, the reptile shot an arc of urine into the air, hitting one of the guests.
(Thanks to W. von Papineau)

Reptile Urine. Paul's new band. Or at least a follow-up to Walrus.

Cruncher will be attending the chamber's next meeting as a wallet.

Any tickets left for next month's luncheon? (Leroy Reschard, who will speak in February about selling.)

"I was sitting at the same table and the alligator — he only (urinated) on a banker. I think he was looking for a lawyer but he couldn't see one..."

"Thane Maynard is a wonderful speaker," Spanogians said. "He's a mix of everything, education, entertainment — he's got the whole package."
I'd say the gator had the package.

I would pay to watch an Alligator piss on a banker.
