IMHO opinion, if you are against the force feeding of ducks. You should go vegan.

You can't complain about one thing being inhumane, especially while eating that rack of lamb, or veal parmigiana. You'd probably have a glass of milk to go with it, and maybe some eggs for breakfast the next morning.

I'd like to see any one of you be able to prove that all the food you eat comes from a free range animal that doesn't suffer.

Sure that cow walks around the pasture, having a grand time, only to have it's calf snatched away and slaughter, so I can have my favourite meal.

mmmmmm...baby cow....

It all ends in death. Probably the most inhumane thing of it all.

all of the meat we cook at home comes from either of two neighbouring farms. i have seen how the animals are treated, and know that they are pastured and allowed to live a non feedlot life up until the short truck ride to the abbatoir. the animals i eat have a far better life than most.

i think that foie gras is unpleasant. so is veal. confinement and overfeeding to make animals more yummy is unneccessary and cruel....but lots of peoople don't feel this way. ultimately everyone has their own theshold. some are level 4 pocket mulching vegans, some are foie gras eating carnivores. life is sustained by the death of other creatures, if i'm going to eat a creature, i want to know that it's had a decent life and will be good food.

happy birthday rick!

Whenever I see that' date=' I think of Boomer Petway's giant roast turkey-mobile in Tom Robbins' "Skinny Legs And All". Has anyone else read that? Fuck, I love Tom Robbins. He gets my nomination for best male non-douche.

happy birthday tungsten!!

When he did the audio version of the book the recording engineers all ended up quitting too. You don't even really have to want to quit.

that's hilarious.

Tim,

I bought the "playing cards" version of this book to lend out to my students, when you recommended it a few years ago. I've had a few students REALLY appreciate it, and want to share it with their friends.

I, too, salute those who are ready to tackle the addiction....good to hear you decided to kick it, too, Joni!

On a slightly tangential note, the foundling-kitty from Jen has been re-named "Smokey" and I'm trying to avoid sliding into the nickname transmutations of "Smoke-Smoke ... Smokers ... Smoker-ino ... Smoke-city... Smoke-butt" ... you get the idea :-)

excellent. how about naming him non-smokey?

so this book changed my life and helped both jennifer and i to quit smoking. that was almost three years ago now.

the download link contains the audio book and a pdf of the print book "The Easy Way to Quit Smoking" by the late Allen Carr.

have at it.

congratulations willy and leanne, and welcome garnet. i love the names that you guys have given your kids.

thanks for the new signature!

legalize it. allow growers to incorporate, and tax them. charge me $50 a quarter plus PST and GST. take all the resulting tax money, plus all the money saved by not fighting the War On (Some) Drugs, and sort out the economic mess we're in.

just a thought.

This guy should be a candidate....

this guy should win the trophy.
