About the Dodgers: "Not unlike an elephant attempting to mate with a ceiling fan, the parts don't fit."

That is a great line.  I must use this in converstations on a regular basis.

I'm a software engineer and I can think of many situations where I could fit that in.  Like, I'm sorry sir, I cannot build the software you are asking for because 'Not unlike an elephant attempting to mate with a ceiling fan, the parts don't fit.'

Or I could drop this line on my wife: Sorry honey, not tonight because 'Not unlike an elephant attempting to mate with a ceiling fan, the parts don't fit.' But then I'd probably be sleeping in the dog house so I might have to hold off on that one.

That's like the wise song from Chef about the pig and elephant DNA and how it just won't splice.
