A man and his wife are traveling in the Middle East. An Arab approaches the husband, saying, “I’ll give you 100 camels for your woman.”

The husband replied, “I was trying to figure out how to get 100 camels back home.”

So Maria Muldaur was right when she mentioned cactus.

We now have a Cat-Cafe here. One pays a fee for an hour spent with a live kitty while having a coffee and pastry.

Thorny Cacti, one of the greatest wrestlers of all time!
