My favorite ("favorite") is my friend's in-laws who think that because she is a vegetarian, she is a liberal atheist homosexual who performs abortions and is also evil. And, OK, most of those are true of her, BUT STILL. They definitely give the impression that they think it stems from not eating meat.
Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

I had a male vegetarian friend when I lived in Greece, and he had someone ask him if he was still able to have sex, despite not eating meat.

Hah--that would have to be a SUPER commitment if that was what vegetarianism does!

I'm now wondering about the vegan stance on swallowing.

On a slightly related note, did everyone catch the amazing "Please stay, Mr Hannity" PSA that Jon Stewart did Monday night
It was GLORIOUS.
I have reached a point where I no longer feel like I need to set my inbox on fire and go on the run. I think I'll get on a treadmill desk for a bit.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I think there's a BRQG entry on the subject - from JenK, maybe? Something about how lord knows, it was given willingly?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I suspect it will be a long time before New Orleans underreacts to something again.

Cabin fever and inactivity were making me super grouchy. I just walked for 30 minutes and I feel so much better.

I am the Liberal ambassador to the underbelly Conservatives in N. Central TX. YOU ARE WELCOME WORLD. Taking one for the team.
From one liberal atheist homosexual who performs abortions to another, I thank you.
