It's nice to see ladies riding elephants the way God intended.

Buckles,
I missed that instruction. Was it in the old or the new testament? Or was there an 11th commandment that Moses dummied up on?

I second that thought.
Although it must be easier to stay on using the leg stradle.
I once tried sitting on the head ala the comely maiden in the photo here in Thailand, with the owners permission of course. It was fine until the climb up a hill became a steep decent. I got behind the ears from then on. Todays price for a 1 hour trek is around ten bucks. The tourists must sit in the howdy. Only room for two. Not much of a money maker. However, a good portion of the animals ration comes for free in the lush landscape. DJY

Wade: I don't think Buckles was talking about Old or New Testaments, but rather just "THE GOOD BOOK."

Paul,
Ahhh, the Butler Scrolls. Why didn't he just say so.
