Of course, you're absolutely correct about Joseph Enterprises Site
being a serious Chia Pet sales tool.  However, I poked around there
AFTER I saw the Chia Pet Zoo site and I was still in my
"hysterical-laughter-mode" from my visit there.

Actually, it was kinda hard taking the Joseph site seriously because
the whole concept of the Chia Pet is funny to me.   Each holiday
season, when they trot out the newest Chia Pets in TV ads, I
generally get a good laugh outta 'em, partly because they ARE so
serious.

Lunch time....
