Thank you, thank you, I'll be here all week. Did you hear the one about the mullah and the hot dog? The hot dog.... oh crap, the morality police just showed up.

But seriously. Buying cigars from Cuba? Buying rugs from Iran? All of these are illegal here in the US. No financial support of the "enemy regime" is allowed. Same principle applies here, with a tinge of religious fervour. I imagine a hospital goes through lots of disposable paper cups, since they are more sanitary.
