It's missing both "Veganism cured my cancer!" and "Those sanctimonious vegans can't tell ME what to eat! It's all part of Michelle Obama's plot to control our lives! Big Brother!"
No Hitler! Hitler! Hitler?
I am disappoint.
I'm a vision of hotliness, and how weird is that? Mystical comas. You know, if you can stand the horror of a higher power hijacking your mind and body so that it can give birth to itself, I really recommend 'em.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

In continued recovery news, I have on outside clothes and we are headed over to a friends place. No driving for me though.

You know how we always warn each other not to read the comments? well, if you can't resist, here's a short-cut - comments to any PETA article. More or less.

So you're saying it's a blank page?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Oh, you're right. "Hitler was vegetarian! Why do you want to be like Hitler?" (Pedantic note: Hitler was not vegetarian.)
And the Isaac Bashevis Singer quote thing is another one of those arguments that really annoys me. The quote, as far as I can remember it, is "To the animals, we are all Nazis. For them, it is an eternal Treblinka." And people will always pull that quote out whenever someone objects to comparing factory farming to the Holocaust, as a "See? Old Jewish guy said it, so it's OK!" thing. But the thing is, that quote is from a short story, from a character in the midst of a mental breakdown. Isaac Bashevis Singer was a vegetarian, and he did write a whole lot of stuff about how we should care about animals, but I've searched and never found him comparing farmed animals to Holocaust victims anywhere other than in that one story.

man, Swifty had another full on seizure today after having no signs of seizuring for weeks. I'm waiting for my vet to call back to see if we should do anything (aside from give him valium which we did). Cats!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
"Those sanctimonious vegans can't tell ME what to eat! It's all part of Michelle Obama's plot to control our lives! Big Brother!"
I just saw this one! In a comment section on Alice Waters. So ranty pants. Wait, I have to go and quote it, because it was so genius in its stupidity.
If its personal choice then that is ok. If it ever gets political and Government forces you to eat a certain way then that is Tyranny! I believe in personnal freedom and our constitution. We need to keep government and laws out of our business! Vote all Statists out of office! We need conservatives!

Because books.
Aw, Swifty. I hope he's okay, lisah.
Yay, Lee!
Dude, I totally got my domestic goddess on today. I baked the rest of the hamantaschen this morning, cleaned the stove, made dinner (meatloaf!), and have the melted chocolate cooling for the brownie cookies I'm making after dinner. AND I went to Sara's concert, which was not as painful as I expected (also only third grade -- the K-3 thing must have been a typo, and I was pretty sure kindergarteners weren't playing the cello).
A glass of wine might be called for.

Excellent plan. Long day, long week. I have a quiet house and am watching General Hospital. Wine is what the scene needs.
