Very nice! Also, I love the name. But that'd be a bad case of self applied acupuncture!

It would be like hugging a very pointy column of Velcro. Except, you know... Painful

So, where did you take this? I live on Phoenix.

Outside of Black Canyon City. I'm just here for the holiday, though. ^.^

Black Canyon City? Where's that?

'Bout 40 miles North of Phoenix

Ah.

I haven't seen a good cactus like that in a while.
Makes me miss living in New Mexico more.
I know there's a big hefty fine for anyone trying to yank one out of the ground!

Yeah, and that's unfortunate. I really wish I could stick one in a pot.

"Right, mates: here's the battle plan. The enemy's going to come marching over that field, but in order to get to us, they're going to have to go through the dense forest we're about to plant. Only this ain't going to be a forest of aspens or some cutesy tree; no, this is going to be a saguaro forest, and we're going to fill it with native wildlife: sidewinders, scorpions, and really big spiders. Get to planting; the menagerie will be here tomorrow, and you don't want to be in the forest when we set 'em loose."

Good battle plan.

Who needs ents, anyway? They move too slowly.

Who needs ents, anyway? They move too slowly.

For some reason, I'm reminded of Hannibal trying to move war elephants over the Alps.

Hmm. You'd have to cross an elephant and a giant hedgehog to get a saguaro elephant...

What do you get when you cross an elephant and a poodle?

A dead poodle with a foot-wide asshole. ^.^

Ow ow ow ow ow ow OW!
