Okay, you two, laugh at the old person!

Cameron, those cactus have little teeny spines around the main spine. Those are the ones that disconnect when you move the plant. Someone offered me Teddy Bear Cactus when we lived in Tucson. I had to dig them, though. I moved quite a few to the trunk of my car. I had to be at a baby shower a couple of hours later. I was miserable. I itched all over. Finally, someone at the shower asked me f I had been around cactus. Said all those tiny "fuzzy" slivers around the main spines probably penetrated my t-shirt and shorts. She told me to use duct tape to get them off and out! It "mostly" worked.
