Here is a picture of a lady who may or may not be smoking a Camel.

Do camels have moisture in their toes?

Yes. In fact, so much so some have been known to leak and squirt.

[Codeflier]

Nice!

[gundog]

... these ships of the desert...

So called because they’re full of Arab seamen?

Dang, beat me to it.

Those are backpacks.

Kids carry their lunch in backpacks too. The camels just copied the kids. ;)

The old Red Pall Malls unfiltered were a fine smoke. I don’t know what is in the current ones. They are worse than any other. Smoke free for 7 years 8 months and 20 days give or take.

Bactrian I presume?

In addition, Fat is mostly long chain hydrocarbons. As it is metabolized it turns into C02 (the horror of all molecules, we must kill all camels today /Sarcasm) and water. The water produced helps the camel hydrate. We need water thus perhaps we should not kill all the camels. When done the water they graciously piss it out on the ground high in nitrates that fertilize the soil along with camel dung which is burned by the locals for heat and cooking. This looks like bio-Karma to me. Camels are looking pretty good now.

However, as one that has lived in the Middle East I know they are vicious vindictive creatures thus their Karma value is reduced not to negative but only slightly positive.

Do not kill the camels unless one really pisses you off and needs killing.

ps
In the night they like to stand on the roadway as the road has absorbed heat during the day. The desert does get cold at night. If you hit one you clip the legs and a ton of meat comes through your windshield and kills you. If perhaps you survive, one will find it was the most prized camel in all of the Saudi Peninsula. Bring your checkbook.

I only noticed the cigarette later. LOL. Good post.

Paul Mall unfiltered d was my smoke until I quit many years ago. It was a fine smoke.
