Junk Mail
We get all kinds of catalogs here at work, some of them quite amusing. I think the one I got today is the funniest though. It's from Heifer International. As I flip through the pages, it extolls the virtues of giving the gift of a heifer, goat, pig, sheep, a trio of rabbits, a flock of chicks or a share of any of them. I'm not sure how I would react if someone gave me a heifer for the holidays, though it would certainly be a first.

I got the same catalog - my roommates and I got a chuckle out of it as well. You might want to look a little more closely, though - it isn't about giving gifts of animals to people you know, it's about donating a needed livestock animal to a third world country community. ;)
I've actually been thinking about donating a share of a llama. After all, why not?
((yay for Hebrew-English puns))

I know it is for more than just a mail-order goat, but I still thought it was funny. And pardon my lack of Hebrew, but can ya explain the pun?
In Hebrew, Lama = Why
