It is amusing because he charged the creatures to come with him rather than him spending money to bring them there.

What does Bonjour mon cherie mean?
touch my darling, touch for touché is not quite accurate. Touché is mostly associated with fencing as to acknowledge a hit being successfully made. However, it is also used in a manner to relay that a good or clever point of view in an argument, debate, etc. has successfully been made by an opponent or opposing person. This is of course usually done at the expense of one person from another.Mon cheri broken down is simply this: 'Mon' is a possessive term for 'My' and 'cheri' means 'darling', 'beloved,' etc. Basically a term of endearment."Touché, mon cheri." This is basically said when one person acknowledges the good or clever point made at their expense by one they hold dearly. Of course it can be, and sometimes is, said in a sarcastic or mocking manner by someone who is being cynical or facetious.

What is a mannlicher schoenauer?
The Mannlicher-Schoenauer name describes a series of rifles and carbines built by the Steyrwerke in Steyr, Austria between 1900 and 1972. The factory was in production much earlier, but the Schoenauer version of the firearm resulted from the joining or the Mannlicher rifle design and the Schoenauer rotary magazine design in the Model 1900 firearm, which quickly morphed into the most famous model of 1903. The original Mannlicher-Schoenauers were built as military rifles which were only purchased in quantity by the Greek Government, beginning with the M1903, the 1903/14, 1927 and System 1930. The greater fame of the Mannlicher arose from the success of the M1903 as a hunting rifle, particularly in Africa, where its light weight, fast handling, and minimal noise for the day made it an instant favorite. The caliber of the M1903 is 6.5x54mm Mannlicher-Schoenauer. Steyr created and marketed three more sporting variations of this rifle prior to the start of World War I, the M1905, chambered in 9x56mm Mannlicher-Schoenauer, the M1908, chambered in 8x56mm Mannlicher-Schoenauer, and the M1910, chambered in 9.5x56mm Mannlicher-Schoenauer. Steyr did not chamber their firearms for calibers other than these four proprietary cartridges until 1924, when they added .30-06, 7x64mm, 7x57mm, 8x57mm, 8x60mm, 9.3x62mm, and 10.75x68mm.The Steyr rifles quickly found places in the hands of the hunters and explorers of the early 1900s, and if you observe the photos of the early African and Indian hunting parties you will usually find Mannlicher-Schoenauers in use. So many of these sportsmen appreciated their firearms such that they even carried them into combat in both World Wars. In the original models, the actions were of four different sizes, based upon the cartridge, and causing unnecessary expense. This error was partially cured in the Model of 1925, and not resolved until production resumed in 1950 with all actions set to the same size. The post World War II production consists of the M1950, M1952, M1956 MC, and M1961 MCA. Failure to control production costs caused the end of production of the Mannlicher-Schoenauer in 1968, with assembly of leftover parts continuing as late as 1972.

Plot of 'Zoo' by Edward D Hoch?
Plot: Exposition=The children were always good in August, especially when it gets near 23rd. It was on that day the silver spaceship which carries Professor Hugo's interplanetary zoo which landed in Chicago for six hours. Rising action=The Professor always brings interesting creatures like .three legged creatures from Venus and many more. Climax=Soon the professor appeared and took over the microphone. Then he said: "Peoples of earth, this year you will see a real treat for your single dollar. The horse-spider people of Kaan. Brought to you from a million miles from space in great expense. Gather at them, study them, see them, listen them, tell your friends about them. But hurry my ship can remain here only six hours. Falling action=The professor waved farewell to them, and the ship rose from the ground the earth peoples yet agreed it was the best zoo ever. Some two months and three planets later, the silver ship of professor Hugo landed on the familiar jagged rocks of Kaan. The Professor said some parting words and then they scurried away to many directions, seeking their homes between the rocks. In one the she creature was happy to see the return of her mate and offspring. She babbled a greeting in a strange tongue and embraces them. "It was a long time you were gone. Was it good?" And the he creature nodded. "The little one enjoyed it especially. We visited eight worlds and saw many things. The little one ran up the wall of the cave. "On the place called earth it was the best. The creatures there wear garments over their skins, and they walk on two legs". "But isn't it dangerous?" asked the she creature. "No" her mate answered. "There are bars to protect us from them. We remain right in the ship. Next time you must come with us. It is well worth nineteen commocs it costs". And the little one nodded "It was the very best zoo ever…. Resolution= Both creatures of both worlds do think that that was the best zoo ever.
