But I'd still do them, as long as they're not eating meat at the time.

Wait, is that you?

Post by: Bernie AKA on Mar 02, 2005, 04:10:58 PM: Exactly. Which will do what other than make the majority of people more pissed off? I don't give a shit what people think of me for not eating meat. I do it for me, not them. If they ask, I'm happy to answer any questions, but I'm not on the lecture circuit. I sit at many a table with bloody steaks and burgers and chicken and if it's not on my plate, it's none of my business.

Frankly, I was tired of Ben busting into people's conversations, handing out pamphlets and getting looked at while I ate. He was one of those "over-night" vegans who was originally just a normal person and then deceided to take up a personal crusade for animals.

We have one, but find supporting spay/neuter & adoption programs to be a more constructive outlet. Ragging people about their personal choices is just obnoxious and won't change a damn thing.

I ended up having a bite of him and the next day my picture was on the cover of the local newspaper where i was making the crab dance and then posted on the outside of my classroom.
Crabby, i didnt wanna eat you but I hope it makes you feel better in arthropod heaven to know you were damn tasty.

Anybody over 55 is safe. The rest of us are the ones who stand to get screwed.

In all fairness to the proposal, it is a step in the right direction; however, implementing a program that will rack up over a trillion in transitional costs over the next ten years while Bush has to beg Congress for more megabillions in war money on a regular basis is insane. And Social Security ain't just for old folks. Anyone of us could be disabled tomorrow & need to collect SS income.

For ourselves, I wouldn't mind the opportunity to speculate with a little SS payroll tax money, but I've been in a finance-based industry and know a bit about how to play that game. Also, the options will be very limited; "a choice of five or so mutual funds, ranging from international stocks, to blue-chip US equities, and corporate or Treasury bond funds". So who chooses & what qualifies the investment options, and how does a corporation get on this special list? That sounds like a big poopy mess in itself. <_<

Post by: Merla on Mar 04, 2005, 12:41:15 PM: Ripped off from CNN.com

PITTSBURGH, Pennsylvania (AP) -- A gigantic lobster that may have survived two world wars and Prohibition before being plucked from the ocean will live on -- but only as a shell of its former self.

The Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium plans to keep the shell of the 22-pound lobster, named Bubba, and use its remains to educate school children, said Rachel Capp, a zoo spokeswoman.

Some of Bubba's meat will be sent to labs for testing as officials try to determine why Bubba died, Capp said Thursday.

Bubba spent a week at Wholey's fish market after he was pulled from the waters off Nantucket, Massachusetts. He died Wednesday, after he was moved from the fish market to a quarantine area at the zoo's aquarium. He was being checked to see if he was healthy enough to make a trip to an aquarium at a Ripley's Believe It or Not museum.

Randy Goodlett, a marine biologist and former curator and director of the zoo's Aqua Zoo, said the lobster likely died because something was slightly off in the salt water mixture it was living in. Capp guessed it might have been the stress of being moved so many times.

Based on how long it typically takes a lobster to reach eating size -- about five to seven years to grow to a pound -- some estimated Bubba was about 100 years old. Marine biologists said 30 to 50 years was more likely.
