French president's camel eaten in Mali

I heard this story on the news on my way home from work, and I admit I cracked up laughing. My favourite news story this year by far.

An official says Mali is to send the French president a replacement camel after the first, given to him as a gift, was eaten, Reuters reports.

"As soon as we heard of this, we quickly replaced it with a bigger and better-looking camel," Reuters quoted an unnamed Malian official as saying.

Chewing on cigarettes is so immature.

I haven't played that game since secondary school.

They should have just eaten the toe and left the rest.
