Yes, at the same zoo, the zookeepers were excited at the news that they were finally getting a gnu. They had hurriedly prepared a new cage for the gnu. All that remained in completing the cage was a few boxes of tiles that were to be laid. In fact, the boxes of tiles had been placed in a corner of the cage awaiting the tileman. Unfortunately, the tileman had been delayed and the tiles remained in their boxes in the cage when the new gnu arrived. The zookeepers decided to put the gnu into the new cage despite the unlaid tiles. Amazingly, the next morning, the tiles were all laid, and it was apparent the gnu had laid the tiles himself. The evening headlines read: "Typical gnu and tiler, too"
