We have a winner in the "Guess who is Gunga Din" contest.

The "mystery" elephant trainer posted yesterday, was of course the Immortal, Infamous, Irritating, Irrational, and Insane Equestrian of Renown, your friend and mine, Col. J. M. Herriott. There were two folks who guessed his identify, Anonymous and David Orr. First prize was an all expense paid trip to the 2011 Monte Carlo Circus Festival, and second prize is an OABA lion pin. Unfortunately, I don't know who anonymous is, so I am going award the second place prize to David Orr, and keep the expense paid trip for another time. Congratulations David.
