your one-stop solution for killing people in the rain with a limp

I got this awesome catalog where you can buy a goat for a family in a third-world country and you give that donation in someone else’s name as a gift. It’s great, changing the world with goats. Or llamas. Whatever. But there’s one thing that freaks me out. You can donate chickens for like $20 or $60, a goat for $120, a water buffalo for $250, or if you want to go all out, you get the Noah’s Ark package, for $25,000, where they give 2 camels to two families in Tanzania, 2 llamas to a family in Peru, 2 donkeys to farmers in Kenya, 2 beehives to a family in Albania, 2 sheep to a family in Arizona, 2 pigs to a family in Arkansas, and so on and so forth. Which is all cool and awesome, except why the hell are Arizona and Arkansas on this list of third-world countries where you need to donate livestock? That’s not good.
