ANIMAL HUMOR

I hope you appreciate this story as much as I did. I think Bob Newhart was one of the funniest guys on tv, but also apparently in real life.

His son tells a story that the whole family went to a restaurant and the waitress arrived to recite the day's specials. As she went down the long list, they grew horrified as they began to realize that every single entree was an endangered species! They din't realize this was the result of Newhart's twisted sense of humor until he could no longer contain himself and the other family members began to notice a small smirk.. he had prearranged the whole act with the waitress in advance. :)<P ID="signature">______________

Watching meat being made is like watching an abortion. It's too disgusting and heartwrenching for words and sometimes we question ourselves on why we even allow it to happen.

I agree the way animals are raised and slaughtered desperately needs to change because it IS cruel enough to raise an animal for slaughter without giving it a hellish life while it's on this earth. These tiny stalls they're cooped up in is wrong. Cattle and pigs should have wide open "free range" spaces and as quick and painless a death as possible BEFORE butchering.

But you can't change some facts of life. People love to eat meat. The vegan/vegetarian market, which has tried to innovate meatless "meat" products (Tofurkey anyone?) tend to forget these products don't have the TASTE of meat. In fact, most have a CARDBOARD taste and texture of rubber padding (do these people even compare the taste of their products to the real thing BEFORE they put it out on the market?)

My wife and I tried the vegan life for a year until we just couldn't stand the way everything tasted anymore. It was so bland. I'm a big man that likes to eat big and the portions of this vegetarian food in proportion to taste and money spent just don't add up to value.

There are some Indian and Thai vegetarian dishes I LOVE. But I couldn't eat them ALL the time. I would go crazy without a nice juicy burger once in a while.

The reality is vegetarian/veganism is an accquired lifestyle. Humans are omnivores (can eat pretty much anything.) and no one can be MADE a vegetarian.

This post has all the effect of an anti-abortion poster with dismembered fetuses on it. It's gross and counterproductive and in the end, changes nothing.

Loss of down?

Loss of DOWN?

Good grief! If you stripped the DOWN off chicken little
we'd need PETA to gather up the troops to knit little
jackets out of polyester to keep it warm. But there's
little warmth in polyester...think they'd donate their
own hair instead of shearing a sheep for some wool?<P ID="signature">______________

Roadkill moose or caribou are really fine. No roaches
where those critters grow, so we have to garnish with
old cigarette butts. Reindeer will do, in a pinch, but
you gotta get rid of the ear-tags 'cause they stick in
your teeth AND they make it possible for the herder
to identify their animals and demand payment.

I hear drivers in France have to be real careful about
running over frogs. First, to be sure they're the
amphibian kind...but also to aim for the head so the
legs aren't damaged.<P ID="signature">______________

As I recall the point of those posters was to illustrate what abortion really results in; and never to forget it. You obviously didn't forget it, so they apparently worked in your case.

Re: Veggies

I find it morally acceptable and justifiable to eat carnivores. The carnivore lives by the sword and must die by the sword. An herbivore probably deserves to die by eating plants that defend themselves with poison.

I remember watching cartoon bull fights when I was a kid. It looked like one big happy game for all parties. Little did I know what really happens at the end. How do you folks feel about a bull fighter losing the contest? Do you feel sorry for the guy's family? Do you wish the human had won? Does the bull have the right to defend himself and kill the aggressor, or only to participate in producing a good show. I say, "Viva El Toro".
