A boy and his mother were at the zoo...

A boy and his mother were at the zoo and found themselves at the elephant exhibit. The boy says, "Mommy, Mommy, what's that thing hanging down?"

Mother: That's his trunk

Boy: No, no, behind the trunk

Mother: That's his tail

Boy: I mean between the trunk and the tail.

The mother, flustered, says, "Oh, that's nothing."


Some time goes by and the boy returns to the zoo with his father. When they reach the elephant exhibit the boy says, "Daddy, Daddy, what's that thing hanging down."

Father: That's his trunk

Boy: No, behind the trunk!

Father: You mean his tail?

Boy: Between the trunk and the tail.

The father looks at his son and says, "That's his penis." The boy becomes confused and says, "Last time Mommy told me it was nothing."

The father replies, "Well, son, your mother's been spoiled."
