Trunk or Treat
I’ve learned from a reliable source (a friend who has kids) what the infamous “Trunk or Treat” signs were all about on churches.
Since “Trick or Treat” pretty much means: “give me candy or we’ll egg your expensive car”, I assumed that “Trunk or Treat” meant “give me candy or we’ll lock you in the trunk of your expensive car”. I just couldn’t figure out why churches were condoning such violent acts, since by nature they’re pretty much against the whole Halloween satanic ritual of begging for candy from strangers.
Churches have used a new device to sway young children from the evils of candy, strangers, and evil costumes by organizing “Trunk or Treat”. It also satisfies the amazingly obese parental population by allowing them to simply decorate their cars, park them in a row in a church parking lot, and dole out candy to their soon to be obese church going children.
The problem is that whole “or” thing. I wouldn’t have an issue if they called it “get candy from the trunk of someone’s car”, but they chose “trunk OR treat”, which makes no sense. And they wonder why Johnny can’t read the bible?
The one stipulation is that the children can’t dress up as evil or scary things... like your pedophile neighbor, or a congressman... oh, same thing. Ok, I’ll have to come up with a better example.
The whole lure to this is that the church guides impressionable youth to see that getting free or really cheap things out of a trunk is ok, which prepares them for a life in New York buying stolen merchandise from mobsters.
So, the mystery of “Trunk or Treat” is solved, except for that whole pesky OR thing.

365 Days of Harping for Nothing
Well, its about that time again.
The night where we let children run around in sight obscuring costumes, go door to door, begging for candy from strangers.
Oh sure, throughout the year we’re beating into their heads how they shouldn’t be out at night, and how they shouldn’t approach strangers, let alone TAKE anything from them, but this one night... its ok.
I wonder if parents, in this high tech world we live in, have printed out the addresses of all those sex offenders to avoid those homes. That will ensure their little kid is safe, that’s for sure. There couldn’t be a crack head in the neighborhood, or someone that’s just waiting to get arrested. We all know our neighbors... ok, no we don’t. We sit in our houses after working long hours, we probably wave at them when we drive by, just to be friendly and so they don’t call the authorities on us for stupid reasons, but we don’t know if they kidnap magazine subscription kids and eat their flesh in their basements. We have no idea if they have a fetish dungeon in their attic and all those cars parked out front aren’t relatives visiting. Not a clue. Nobody goes over to the neighbors with cookies and chats over coffee anymore, we’re too busy. But we aren’t too busy to go parading the kids out in darkened streets to get free candy, no sirreee.
Sure, go ahead and let your kids run wild on Halloween. I’m sure its perfectly safe in today’s society.

Breast versus Chest
A friend of mine e-mailed me the other day to tell me that she and her husband were watching a television show about a guy getting a sex change operation. While in today’s medical marvel world, a rather blase story, but she pointed out something very interesting.
During the whole process, the show had no problem at all showing a man naked from the waist up. He went through medical procedures, and hormone shots, and therapy, and each time they showed him in a state of undress... no problem showing his chest and nipples.
When it came time for the man’s implants, on the other hand, they showed the surgery in graphic detail, from the cutting open of the hole, and insertion of the implants, but the moment the implants were in place... they pixelated the “breasts”.
Wait a minute. What’s wrong with this? Just because the man has now taken a female form, its not ok to show a breast? I happen to know some men (who are not men trapped in women’s bodies, they’re just... fat) that have WAAY more cleavage than I do, and yet I’m sure there wouldn’t be any problem showing that on television (see “The Biggest Loser” or any of the myriad weight reduction shows on tv). Plenty of naked male boob flab going on there. But throw in the intent that the man wants to be a woman, or perhaps make these flabby guys wear Manbras and we draw the line at showing it on television.
If there’s a baby attached to the breast, that’s fine to show. Show a breast with a lovely piercing during a superbowl, not so fine. Ok, so we’ve ruled out that having something attached to a breast makes it ok to show (baby versus piercing), so baby ok, starburst piercing not ok. Breast reduction or implant surgery... ok to show blood and tissue and gore, not ok to show a nipple. Simply fine to show someone being ripped apart, blown apart, mangled, chainsawed, or hacked... just don’t show any breasts during that.
Do we wonder why our children are messed up?

The New Politically Correct Tea Party
Illinios Lieutenant Governor Pat Quinn urged citizens to send tea bags with their electric bills to protest the raise on electricity rates in their state.
The post office says that while its not illegal to mail tea bags, it could possibly gum up with postal service equipment and slow their jobs down, and also cause some security concerns. In light of that announcement, the Lt. Gov then said it would be ok to just send a picture of a tea bag in with the electrical bills.
Flash back to December 16, 1773. Three groups of fifty Boston residents known as the “Sons of Liberty” board the ships; Dartmouth, Eleanor, and Beaver with the intention of throwing all of the tea into the Boston harbor to protest the tea act. A harbor master explains to the groups that throwing all of the tea into the harbor would be very messy, and affect the other boats in the harbor, which would need to be cleaned. The group aggrees and goes home, and instead write a letter to the editor complaining about taxation without representation, being forced to buy untaxed tea from the British East India Company, and generally being cranky. If that were the case, I’d be drinking tea instead of Starbucks and sitting here bitching about being taxed by the Royal Colonies.
There is such a thing has peaceful protest, and despite the concerns of the postal system, there has to be a way for citizens to protest something they don’t like in a peacefuly, yet inconvenient way to get the point across. Using “National Security” concerns has become the trademark of all excuses to stop citizens from peaceful discord. We can’t congregate anymore, we can’t mail tea bags, we can’t do a lot of things anymore because they throw the whole “oooh, National Security” concerns flag and we simper back to our holes and continue to stew over being ineffective and castrated. Thank you government can we have another.
This year in Maryland the de-regulation of power companies went into effect. In 1999 the Maryland General Assembly thought it would be a good idea to de-regulate power companies so that independent power companies could come in and do business and give the almight conglomerate Baltimore Gas and Electric (BGE) some competition.
Let’s see, BGE came in, paid for the entire infrastructure of power lines, owns all of the power companies that generate and route electricity... and the Maryland General Assembly thought that Bob’s Power Company would come in, do the same and give BGE a run for their money. The problem with that is that Bob would have to buy his power from BGE, so why would anyone buy Bob’s power, when Bob would have to pass the power cost on to us, and bump up the bill to cover his administrative fees. Hmmm, no thanks, I’ll just stay with BGE. Ok, another alternative would be that a company outside of Maryland could provide us with power. Except it would be the same situation, unless the outside of Maryland company strung extension cords to your house. Once again... stupid scenario. The only thing de-regulation did was increase our power bills by 72%, which is very convenient. There is talk of un-de-regulating power, which doesn’t help matters any.
This election year, plenty of fingers were pointing to those that made those decisions in 1999 that landed us in a 72% power increase (on top of gas being over $3.00 a gallon), and I have every confidence that the Maryland voters will go to those polls in November, forget who did what and vote those idiots back into power. “Hey, here’s a name I recognize... I’ll vote for them” Yes, you remember that name because they thought it would be neat to provide competition for a business that can’t be regulated. Next year I expect they’ll de-regulate air.

Television, and other stupidity
As the new tv season approaches, it is once again chock full ‘o stupidity.
I see that “reality” tv is once again booming, thanks to Survivor and their racially divided “tribes”. Big hoopla about that. Here’s a thought... don’t watch it. I can pretty much guarantee that if nobody watches, you won’t have that crap on tv anymore. Keep complaining about it and you just give them free publicity. So turn it off, go play with your kids or something.
Nancy Grace, who berates a woman whose child is allegedly stolen from its bedroom, then has the gall to play the interview (actually, it was mostly Nancy screaming things at this poor woman) hours after the woman commits suicide. Why isn’t she answering your questions Nancy? Because you’re puppet head, you bleached blond, poofy haired bitch, that’s why. She doesn’t have to answer your stupid questions. You claim you’re “helping”, helping what? Ratings? How about volunteering at a soup kitchen, or cleaning up trash along the road, or even (if your law license hasn’t been stripped) defending indigent people. Helping isn’t sitting in an air conditioned studio screaming at people for your “scoop”.
Then there’s the endless parade of daytime “talk” shows that showcase the dregs of society. Who are all these people, and why do they think we care that your husband had a sex change and married your son? We know you’re dysfunctional, your family has probably told you a zillion times that you are dysfunctional and should seek professional help, they meant a licensed shrink, not Jerry Springer!
What’s up with YouTube anyway? I thought there were a gazillion copyright laws that said you couldn’t tape a show and then post it somewhere, or make a profit from it, or something like that. Its bad enough that you have to pay 10 bucks for a ringtone that lasts for three seconds, how are these people getting away with taping practically a whole freakin show and posting it on YouTube?
What’s with everyone now calling everything “i” something? iJack, iThis, iThat. I would think that Apple would be storming down people’s butts for copying their catchy little naming thing. Do they actually think that by naming something “i”, that people would immediately think it came from Apple and buy it sight unseen? iDont’care. iAmsickofthewholething.
Some artist painted an elephant (after getting approval) for an art show, and now the city is freaking out because people are freaking out, so they’re saying they have to scrub the paint off the elephant. Here’s a quote from someplace “Ed Boks, the head of the ASD, said the order was made after consulting with two animal rights activists and the city attorney's office.” See anything wrong with that picture? I’ll point it out if you are incapable of spotting stupidity: Why on earth is this city consulting with animal rights activists? Wouldn’t Zoo elephants keepers, or a zoologist, or even the freakin Barnum Bailey Circus be more informed about what is and isn’t good for an elephant? Do we think that two animal rights activists who probably protested outside of a circus as packaged meats know more about elephants than say... ohhhh... licensed professional animal caretakers?
Don’t get me started on that hoopla about the animal activist that “saved a dying dog from a chain” by stealing it from the owners when they weren’t home. Apparently some group in Utah now wants to help change the law so that anyone that feels that you aren’t treating your pets right can just take them and be free of any legal repercussions. I hope they change the child laws so that you can just steal some kid that isn’t getting the candy bar it wants in the store.

Men in a Women's College
Apparently the all woman students at Randolph-Macon Woman's College are upset because it was announced that men would be admitted to the 115-year-old institution starting in 2007. Due to financial reasons (they can't find enough qualified women students to go to the college), the officials have decided that instead of allowing the college to bleed to death financially, the best thing to do would be open up the college to men. This, apparently is not ok with the current students, past students, etc.
I find this to be a bit hypocritical. I'm a woman, and I think having an "all-women" college to be a bit offensive. Where is all that "we're equal" crap, and "we deserve the same opportunities as men" crap the women's libbers are always spouting.
If you want to be equal, don't create "women only" institutions. What about all that hoopla complaining, and fighting for the opening of "men only" institutions (Naval Academy among others) to women. You didn't think it right to have men only stuff, what's with the women only stuff?

Breast Double Standards
Ok, I'm sick of it.
I'm a woman
Yes breastfeeding is natural, but so is taking a crap and having sex and you don't see people complaining when they can't do that in public, and yet we're suppose to bend over backwards and give these woman special rooms to do it in, or they just freakin do it wherever they want and we're suppose to "understand".
Its natural, yes, but they get bent out of shape if you look at them when they do it, they get bent out of shape if they give you a room to do it in that they don't approve of, and they get bent out of shape if everyone doesn't freakin bend over backwards and do what they say.
I don't want that happening at the table next to me when I'm trying to eat, I don't want to see it when I'm drinking a coffee, I don't want it near me at all! What about my rights not to see that?
We had yet another case of "breastfeeding rights" at a Victoria's Secret (of all places): Breastfeeding Protest
The best quote ever is from the woman who was offered a bathroom (because all of the dressing rooms were full) which she described as disgusting, and led a breast-feeding protest in front of the store (oh GAWD!)
She says (and I quote) "the nurse-in was meant to make people aware that breasts are not obscene."
Not obscene? Then why was MTV and ABC fined for Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction"? Why is it that women who work at Hooters (and don't show their breasts) or who wear skimpy clothing, or bathing suits are "demeaned and exploited"?
If breasts aren't obscene, then on a hot day I should be able to run around without a shirt like men do... hey that's natural, we aren't born with clothes!
I'm so sick of women using this double standard to get their way. Breastfeeding is natural, breasts aren't obscene, but don't look at us when we do it, don't expose your breasts for anything other than breastfeeding, and give us what we want or we'll blackmail you by plunking our asses down and breastfeeding our kids.
Next time I hear of one of these protests, I think I'll go pee in front of them. Its natural too, where are my pee rights?

Sue the World for your Stupidity
The latest idiocy is some kid suing Myspace.com (well, she isn't suing, her PARENTS are suing for her) because she believed someone that said they were her age, and let's meet, and we'll have fun, and she did, and it turned out the guy was older, and molested her... duh!
So, instead of telling their kid, "hey, you're a moron, guess you learned not to trust people now", no, they decide to sue myspace.com, why? WHO FREAKIN KNOWS!
Did people go around before the internet and sue the post office because their pen pal lied to them? No, don't recall those lawsuits.
Do people go around suing the phone company because someone on the phone scammed them? no, don't recall those lawsuits.
So what's this suing internet companies because people make up phony names, ages, and personalities? The internet company has no control over that, just like the car makers don't control the morons that get behind the wheel and drive their car into yours or drive like morons. Should I sue General Motors because an idiot was driving a car they made? NOOO.
Gun makers are getting the heat from these money grabbers also. People suing a gun manufacturer because someone with a screw loose used one of their guns to kill people. Fast food places getting sued because people buy their greasy crap food and get fat and heart diseases. Nobody shoved that burger in your mouth fatty so shut up!
Victims are overtaking this world. The fingerpointers will soon be in charge and nobody will be able to do anything because there will be so many rules to follow that you can't get anything done because you'll be too busy reading the rule for something simple like breathing.

The Blameless
A five foot, 1 inch man was convicted of abusing a child, but will face no prison time because he's too short.
A female teacher who was convicted of having sex with a child will face no prison time because she's too pretty.
Lesson learned: If you are short or pretty go do what you want, you are impervious to consequences. If you are short AND pretty they may even give you a coupon for free stuff.
"Supporters of short people say it's about time someone recognizes the unique challenges they face." Um... is this to say there are non-supporters of short people? There are anti-short people factions springing up all over the country? This is a case of the anti-short people group forcing a poor short person into jail for molesting a child? That jails are unfair to short people? We need to build short people jails? I guess we'll need to build pretty people jails too eventually, and then we'll need to build jails for people who don't see well in the dark, and jails for people who fear concrete, and jails for people that require ambient lighting, and jails for left-handed people?
We make the claim that we've come a long way in merging color and nationality lines, being equals no matter what, and yet we continue to put people in different categories: too short, too rich, too pretty. We give special treatment and special consideration for groups of people and call it diversity. This "diversity" only further sections off people, and actually calls attention to their differences when we all should be equal, play on the same board, and treat each other fairly.
If you break the law you should go to jail, no matter what the excuse is.. You should go to jail even if you are a one-eyed, albino, transgendered, short person, or a average height white person. It shouldn't matter. We are all people. Nobody is more special than someone else, nobody is more valuable than someone else, nobody deserves more protections than someone else. We are all equals, but until everyone starts thinking that way, there will always be discrimination, special treatment, special consideration, and hatred for those who get the special treatment.

Inability to own up: the new disease!
U.S. Rep. Kennedy bashes his car into a barrier and blames it on a disease: drug abuse.
Golfer John Daly lost $1.65 million in five hours playing mostly $5,000 slot machines, the disease: gambling.
Wait a minute? Disease?
How about stupidity, lack of common sense, lack of ability to face reality, lack of self control, but not a disease by any stretch of the imagination. To call these things a disease is a slap in the face of everyone that has faced cancer, leukemia, glaucoma, etc. You decided to pop those pills, you decided to bet your money, people with real diseases didn't have those choices, they just got it and dealt with it.
So, I'm suppose to actually feel sorry for a man that plays GOLF for a living that he blew 1.65 MILLION on slot machines in 5 hours? awwww! That poor man! Here I am, scrimping money so I can afford gas at 8 bucks a fucking gallon so I can drive to my crappy job so I can get paid and waste all of my "earnings" to buy more gas to drive to my crappy job. OR, I'm sitting in my swelter house because my electrical bill went up 72% thanks to "de-regulation" and I can't afford to fill my tank up to drive to an air conditioned mall.
And what about "de-regulation"? How is it that someone thought "hey, lets give other electrical companies a fair shot at providing home owners with electricity"? One company owns all the power lines, owns all of the electric generating stations, so did they think that Bob's electric company was going to snake an extension cord to my house and provide me with electricity? What the F?

How is this fair?
I don't use a blackberry, I think they're ugly and I really don't need to be connected 24 hours a day, give me a break. But the Government is now crying about the fact that their blackberry connections will be cut due to the lawsuit against RIM, and they want assurances that if blackberry does get shut off, they will be exempt.
Wait a minute! What makes PUBLIC SERVANTS more special than those that pay their salaries? Nobody screamed foul when the Beta VCR went obsolete and left us with a worthless piece of expensive technology. What about all of the other things that went by the wayside with not even a "sorry" after people bought them? Why should the Government be exempt if RIM is wrong and infringed on a patent? Sure it'll be an inconvenience, but they can join the line of the inconvenienced along with all of the non-government users.
Perhaps if the government was inconvenienced they would understand the frustrations of us little people who get "taken" every day by manufacturers who taunt us with big claims and promises, then go obsolete, taking our money with them.
If blackberry goes dark EVERYONE goes dark, not just us little people.

Stupid Quote of the Day
"The state wouldn't be allowed to euthanize a dog in the manner in which it's executing prisoners" - Defense Attorney Todd Zubler in response to his client about to undergo lethal injection.
Are you kidding me? The state allows dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, you name it to undergo "lethal injection" on a daily basis by the hundreds, if not thousands! Some states still gas animals in huge chambers enmasse!
Cruel and unusual punishment? Certainly not as cruel as gunning down an innocent person. His client should have thought about the consequences of his actions before he pulled the trigger.
His client is lucky to get the "relaxing cocktail" prior to the heart stopping mix, unlike the thousands (millions if you go by the entire US) of dogs and cats that die each day who get a poke in a vein.

Why People Suck
Last night I came home from a crappy day at work, a continuation of a crappy week at work, after dealing with going to the crappy store, and I see something stuck in my screen door.
Its a note and business card from the Department of Health. Department of Health?
The note said: Anonymous complaint, trash and refuse in the front yard, attracting rodents.
HUH?
Oh sure, we have the top of a kitchen table leaned up against the fence that needs to go to the dump, we have a rolled up carpet, also needs to get dumped, and some boards neatly stacked on the other side of the house. Trash and refuse attracting rodents? You've got to be kidding me!
We suspect its our next door neighbors, who recently moved in. Their house is a mess, and it was a mess before they moved in. 11 years we've lived here, the old lady that did live there complained all the time about rats in her back shed (which would venture into our yard and be killed by our dogs), mice in her house, and flooding every time it rained. I'm sure the real estate agent that sold that house got a big commission for not mentioning these little tid bits of information to the new owners.
Not once in the 11 years we've lived here did we complain about the rat colony in her shed, not once did we complain about her dog taking a dump in our front yard, we just lived with it like good neighbors, and if we had wanted to complain, we would have asked her nicely... not called the freakin health department on her.
So, the new people moved in, nice couple with kids. We loaned them yard tools until they could get their own. Did we call the police when their kid threw a basketball and hit my brand new SUV? no. Did we call the County and bitch when a HUGE branch from their tree fell into our yard and they did nothing about it... well, nothing but drag it more into our yard? no. Do we complain about their dogs barking and yipping at 5am, or midnight? no. Do we complain when their friends park in our front yard? no.
So, in return, they call the health department and claim that a few items are now causing the next bubonic plague. Good lord, a woman was recently found with 200 dead cats in her house, the stench so bad that animal control workers had to wear respirators to remove the cats, all she got was a fine for the dead cats and allowed to go back and live in her urine drenched home. We have 3 items in our yard and we're causing the moral decay of the community.
I called the Health Department guy up and asked how we could remedy the situation. He looked at the file and kind of chuckled. Told us to remove what we already knew needed to go. I apologized for our inconsiderate and unsociable neighbors for dragging him out to our house and not discussing the issue with us first, which we would have gladly remedied. He sighed, and said it was no bother, giving me the impression that most of his job entailed going out to look at perfectly fine houses because morons have a grudge or blame their problems on someone else and can't face them to resolve the issue.
I'll be travelling to the fun and festive dump today with our plague items. While we were at it, we also raked the yard, and now there are 40 bags of leaves on the curb. This from a front yard with two tiny trees in it... most of the leaves are from their tree. I guess we'll get complained about again, since I'm sure those bags are just havens for creatures before they get picked up on Thursday.

Things that have pissed me off this week
1.) A billionaire Senator winning $800,000 in powerball.
He's a billionaire already, what does he need with MORE money? He'll get a cushy retirment package from his "civil service" as a senator, and yet he takes money from the poor by selfishly buying a lotto ticket.
2.) Basketball players whining about a dress code
Once again, millionaires whining because their bosses want them to dress nicely and project a professional image. Players making such inane statements as (to paraphrase) it's not what you wear, its how you present yourself. Um, moron, what you wear is how you present yourself. Or another player wanting the NBA to buy the clothes. YOU MAKE A ZILLION DOLLARS PLAYING A GAME! You want someone to buy your clothes, go join the military and make use of yourself. Oh you poor things, someone wants you to wear a sport coat. How about you go over and defuse some mines in Iraq? How about you go to hurricane ravaged towns and help poor people rebuild their lives?
3.) Congress and Senate bickering over cost cutting. Lets take BILLIONS of dollars earmarked for a bridge in Alaska that nobody will use and rebuild some bridges that were destroyed in Louisiana. No? That'll cause the total collapse of Alaska? If billionaires are asked to cut the budget, they see absolutely no problem with spending billions on stupid things. I say we vote some poor person into office, a person that can make their measly minimum wage paycheck go toward feeding and clothing a large family. That'll get us out of debt.

You've got to be kidding
I'm watching the Today show on friday morning, and Matt Lauer introduces a "very brave woman", who, at the age of 38 and mother of 3 children, set off on a journey to do something that she's always wanted to do: become a professional cheerleader.
Ok, I thought to myself seconds before the broadcast. All sorts of things popped into my head about this. Perhaps it was a widowed or single mother of three, whose lifelong dream was to be a cheerleader. She works hard to make a living for her and her kids, somehow finds the time to train and actually becomes a cheerleader. Hard working woman makes it to the big time. I can get into that.
The story starts with a rather nice looking blond doing some cheers with the Baltimore Ravens. Its kinda hard to figure out which one is the mom, they all look the same.
The reporter drones on about how this 38 year old mother of three worked hard to make her dream come true. They show her making cookies with her three kids in a rather spacious and well decked out kitchen, talking about how hard it is to make the time to do cheerleading and spend quality time with the kids.
They show her at charity functions, meeting and greeting some tuxedo and gown clad big wigs... and then they show her husband. The CEO of Constellation Energy.
Wait a minute! You've got to be kidding me!
This story of one woman's goal isn't about some poor woman who struggles to make ends meet by toiling at a job and raising three kids, its about some rich guy's spoiled wife, who probably has housekeepers and nannies and a personal trainer, lives in a HUGE ass mansion, becoming a freaking cheerleader?
That's the inspirational story? Like she didn't show up and someone said "hey, let her in, her husband can buy the team and fire us".
What a crock of shit!
Are the news media so damn out of touch that they actually think this is an inspirational story?
Give me a freakin break!

Do we really need more drama?
What happens when a horrible thing happens to one part of the country? People get jealous of the attention and start causing their own little dramas, that's what.
Take for example 9/11. New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington DC were the targets.
This left a lot of people out of the drama loop, so they had to create their own with e-mail hoaxes, gas rationing (my sister in podunk Goshen, Indiana, a REAL terrorist target because of all the Amish food) reported that people were paying 10 bucks a gallon for gas. Why? Who knows. The local paper found someone from the area that now lived in Florida, who worked at a beauty salon where two of the terrorists got their hair cut. She never actually cut their hair, she was the receptionist. A week after the terrorist attack, she realized who they were and called her mom who asked "are you ok?" Um, why wouldn't she be ok? My late father use to call this phenomena "the Michiana connection".
Local newscasters would find someone that had seen a picture of the world trade center at the library, and report the ominous connection they had to the terrorist attack.
Hurricane Katrina is not immune. Sure, there are already TONS of humane and animal suffering going on, but now I'm getting deluged with OH MY GAWD I JUST HEARD THAT ALL PETS ARE BEING SHOT (or euthanized, or drowned, or name gruesome death here) BY (insert reputable organization here).
Yep, that really makes the donation roll in. Reputable organization kills all animals... I can hear the phones ringing with people throwing money their way. Don't think so.
Food lobbyists have also gotten into the act, slandering the good work of rescue organizations. I have no idea what this has to do with food, other than the food lobbyists don't seem to be trucking semis full of food to help anyone, just sitting in front of a computer and bitching about a rescue organization getting money to help out. An organization that is actually down there... doing something... not finishing off a donut in their cushy window office.
I don't know what is worse, the morons that make this crap up, or the morons that believe it and spread it around as truth. A friend of a friend of a friend of an old acquaintance that I knew through my great uncle said...
Throw a known name into the mix and it makes the lie doubly true, but you can still smell the crap and know what it is... apparently not everyone can do that.
Hey, I have the Neiman Marcus $1,250 cookie recipe... want it? I'll give it to you for 50 bucks and donate all proceeds to Hurricane relief, but not to that reputable organization that is killing animals faster than they can get ahold of them.
Come on people, why bother going down there in the first place? If you were going to euth them, just sit in your office, no need to waste precious donations actually GOING there to put them to sleep, just let them suffer and drown, same thing isn't it, but a lot cheaper.
good lord, society is scary.
