The first rule of Turtle Fight Club is you don't mention Turtle Fight Club. The second rule is we don't video Turtle Fight Club.

That's a fact. Tortoises are land dwellers.

Me too! I had a tortoise named Harley, and I had two classroom turtles named Tiny and Moe.

I recently went to the library and asked them for a book on turtles. The librarian asked "Hard cover?" I told her, "Yes, with green pointy heads."
