Your comment reminds me of the first time my mother attempted to cook lobster for my father. She made the mistake of cooking it tail first, and had to listen to it cry as it boiled in the pot.

The windy city is getting to be a real blast of hot air.

From "the city of broad shoulders" to "the city of panty waists".

In the future Food Gestapo police state, expect to hear the following :

1. The defendent is hereby guilty of capital animal cruelty on the grounds of eating a hamburger at an illegal speakeasy. It is the judgement of this court of the New World Order that the defendent shall be sentenced to death by guillotine. The defendent's carcass shall then be used as food for the New World Order's police dogs. May Satan have mercy on your soul. Drop the blade.

Tracked by the Gestapo...with an implantable microchip and cameras inside your own home.

If they ban turkey and force everybody to eat Tofurkey on Thanksgiving Day, then I will burn a UN flag in front of PETA's headquarters.

Proof that animal rights activists who engage in vandalism are terrorists and should be treated as such. So let me ask this : Why is this god damned country rewarding the f*cking terrorists?! Are the god damn politicians in this country THAT spineless? I'm starting to think that Susan B. Anthony had more balls than these spineless politicians put together.

Ingrid Newkirk should do us all a favor and jump off a bridge. This world would be better off without her.

I used to watch the 700 Club, but I stopped watching when Pat Robertson started talking about the foods we eat as if he were a member of Commies for Sciene in the Pinko Interest (CSPI).

Nanny state update - Foie gras ban coming to NJ

http://www.nj1015.com/absolutenm/templates/?a=4019&z=1
Push to Outlaw Fine Dining Delicacy

(Trenton) It's not for everyone but, if you like foie gras with your Beluga caviar, escargot and Dom Perignon, one lawmaker wants you to know how your meal got from the farm to your plate. Assemblywoman Joan Voss is sponsoring legislation to ban the production of foie gras in New Jersey. California's production ban goes into effect 2012 and the city of Chicago has already banned the serving of the delicacy.

And he's worried about geese livers?
