   “‘It’s a lovely little baby mammoth indeed, found in perfect condition,’ said Alexei Tikhonov ...”

   “Perfect condition,” eh?  Looks a tad metabolically challenged to me.

   It’s that passive tense…“found.” It encompasses (if not implies) the “metabolically challenged” part. ;oD If the mammoth had found us, we’d expect it to look perkier.

   Hey Chris. (speaking of metabolism) Found an old photo of you. If I ever join the modern age I’ll see if I can get you a copy.

   You were cute, babe.

   I was, wasn’t I? If only I had used that for good instead of evil.

   I dimly recall a photo being taken of me at an overlook in Famous National Park.

   “Baby Mammoth” is the obvious oxymoronic opposite to “Jumbo Shrimp”....
