I spent about a week in Dubai just last month.The flight from JFK was 13 hours and when I arrived I was jet lagged out of my mind.I got to my room and switched on the TV to lull me to sleep.What do I first see? Camel races! I was too tired to guffaw...but I still remember it.

Yikes!

Funny deal,
Couple of years ago my son and I went from the east coast of Florida to the West coast via the Okeechobee waterway.
On the west side, Caloosahatchee River side as we were going along I noticed a pile of dirt moving. Turns out it was a one humper that someone had for a pet.
Freaken camel in your backyard? Ok
