There was a penguin from the LA Zoo who decided to take a trip to Las Vegas. During the night he slipped out of his enclosure and took one of the cars he found in a nearby parking lot. Driving through the desert, the sun came up and it got very hot. Suddenly he heard the engine making a terrible racket, and the oil pressure gauge dropped rapidly. Fortunately, he noticed a roadside gas station and diner, so he directed the car into the station.

Leaving the car with the mechanic, the penguin went into the diner. Since it was such a hot day and since he was a penguin, a cool treat was in order, so he ordered a big bowl of vanilla ice cream. Having flippers instead of hands, the poor penguin couldn't use a spoon, so he just buried his face in the ice cream bowl, making quite a mess on himself.

Leaving the diner and going to check on his car, he walked into the repair bay. The mechanic, who was under the car, rolled out and and looked up at the penguin.

"It looks like you blew a seal," the mechanic said.

"No way!" the penguin exclaimed. "It's just vanilla ice cream!"
