Quantum materiae materietur marmota monax si marmota monax materiam possit materiari?

Hippos

You'll need:

* 1,000-gallon tank per hippo
* 1,000 gallons of water
* Crane
* 1-pound sedative
* Soothing hippo music
* 2 Aspirin (for you)



How to pack:

1. Fill your tank with 800 gallons of water. Start yesterday. Remember, a medium-sized hippo takes up at least 200 gallons. (Just out of curiosity, why do you have a hippo, anyway?)

2. Apply sedative. Take two Aspirin.

3. Hold it, hold it - put the hippo in the tank, first. Start with soothing hippo music, followed by a large winch and crane.

4. Now go relax in a hot bath before the forklift arrives.

Just because you have been pumping for years doesn't mean you should get sloppy about sterile site insertion techniques and changing your site as scheduled... even if it "looks find" and your sugars are "okay".

Don't ask me how I came to find this out becuase it involves a story of scapels, IV anti-biotics and stitches and it's pretty gross.
