As the suave but elderly Maurice Chevalier character sang in "Gigi", "Ah yes, I remember it well."

But the part about an elephant caressing you with his toes sounded downright painful then and still does now. Surely you wouldn't wish that on a fellow horseplayer.
And that my friends is essentially impossible but a Bird of Paradise up your nose is a daily phenomena or at least it was back in the 70's I recall. And speaking of Maurice, I literally almost ran into him at Times Square in NY when I was around 20. As elderly as he was, he had a rather stunning lady on his arm. I even had the guts to ask for his autograph and I got it . . . "Ah yes, I remember it well".
