"There's no limit to how much you'll know, depending how far beyond zebra you go." ~ Dr. Seuss The photo of the Zebra in the Kruger National Park and by the way, not the New York Zoo, was taken from our family album . . . . ooops, I mean our Family Photograph Album! So on this very wet, rainy, Friday in most parts of the Southern African plains, I urge you to be challenged to BE Different; if its not black stripes, let it be white stripes! Q: What did the blonde name her pet zebra? A: Spot!

@arthurchappell Obviously one of the nocturnal varieties Arthur since it is wearing them during the daytime.

Thanks for the laugh with 'spot'! I favour the white stripes, but I may have to go to New York to check that

Our friend had a Dalmatian dog which Vince and I used to call 'Stripes'. We thought it was funny.

@JudyEv I am sure she did. Dogs are very forgiving

@Inlemay The first time they put a warm raincoat on the dog she was mortified and wouldn't look at anyone. Later she became really fond of it. She was a great dog. I'm sure she forgave us for calling her Stripes.

Like your quote, and your joke. Nice picture of a zebra in its natural habitat.

and if you read the two Charlie's rebuttal above - the Zebra Crossing would have been in the joke as well

It can be quite deceiving to think that the stripes could constitute a level of camouflage, but I understand that it blends into bush and tall grasses very well. Of course if you had a pet zebra that kept walking past you, you would soon be as dizzy as the proverbial blonde. I assume the reference to New York Zoo was for my benefit.

Absolutely - anything I say in ANY post with regards to New York is for those that know my pain about the visitor!
