Now this is getting serious. No more monkeys playing with bananas. ALL WE DEMAND IS F*** SPACE!" Those who are doing a moral act by going vegetarian and riding a bike should be respected and admired because they are only ones doing something for the planet. I heard vegetarianism saves more than riding a bike, but I question that. I heard from a couple who went off the grid in NYC for a year and made a book about it. I just want to hear proof of it. So our mascot is the monkey with the banana? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://webspawner.com/users/BANANAREVOLUTION |
