I say we let all the animals out of their cages and corrals and pens now to
run wild and unchecked and we can watch them all starve to death and then we
can scoop them up with snow shovels and burn them for heat in our houses and
businesses and we would be able to stop using oil and electricity for this
purpose. Hmmmmmmmm. .. think we could get our cars to run on dead, starved
animal carcasses? The amount of fossil fuels we could save would be worth
the switch to vegetarian diets in itself. And what if we could figure out
how to make toilet paper out of dead animal skins? Oh my god, it would be
marvelous! We could even wash it and re-use it! And we could use it for
printer paper and cereal boxes and we could make chairs out their bones and
upholster them with leather! Then Brigid and all her friends would be able
to unchain themselves from the trees in our National Forests because we
would have no more use for products made from trees, and all the little
birdies would have a nice place to live and sing their little songs, and all
the Pagans (sorry Jeannine) would have a place to run naked through the
woods from now on without fear of it being logged for the benefit of all us
greedy *******s.

THAT'S IT! I've seen the light! And all thanks go to Frigid Brigid. God I
love ya Brigid! Now **** off!
