And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
the picture in the corner of the little girl holding the 'sea kitten" made me think poor fishy -- it needs water. PETA makes me crazy. As an omnivore, I actually agree with a number of the basic ideas and concerns of vegetarians/ vegan. But no extreme argument from PETA is going to make me an instant vegetarian -- diabetes complicates things.

I tried. I developed a b-complex deficiency. Now, maybe I never met the right lentil, but the year's worth of monthly injections was discouraging. I have reduced my meat consumption, though.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I think the animals we raise for food should have decent lives and deaths that are as quick and painless as possible. I think that research animals should live comfortable lives and that anything painful that happens to them should have specific research goals. I think that animal rights' activists who mail razor blades to people who work at animal research facilities should have vaccines tested on them.

In Calvinism, god knew from the beginning of the world whether you were going to be hit by a bullet. He's not going to tell you, though.

He's a joker, that Calvinistic God. "No, go ahead, run across the freeway. Ignore me giggling. Go for it."

Hey, Hil...you have any links to the PETA dating/conversion thing? I'm writing something up.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Sorry, I can't find anything. There was a mention in Veg News a few months ago -- maybe the May or June issue? The cover had all kinds of different stuff about relationships and dating -- but most of their old articles aren't online.

Aw, crap. I told a student I didn't believe the "sea kitten" thing today, because students believe ridiculously stupid stuff. Guess I'll have to apologize to him. Curse you, PETA!

Do you know how often I walk up to them, make the Paul Gross arms, and say "You're a kitty!"??? It. Never. Gets. Old.
I'm glad somebody else does this. Cracks me up every time, although my cat doesn't seem amused.
