k, you opened a can of worms or shall we say you are being pummelled with organic carrots of varying sizes. Before you are pelted unmercifully with produce, I think that we could all as you say lighten up.

I think what goes into a person's mouth doesn't necessarilly indicate what happens when music comes out of it. I believe that people should ingest what they want as long as I don't have to breathe it (second hand smoke). Everyone has the right to do with their bodies what they want. Anybody who claims they have a superior lifestyle to lord over someone else is just plain rude or stupid.

I think it's ok to poke fun at us vegans. We may be from a different planet, (The Planet Vega) not necessarilly more advanced in any way than anyone else but we are happy with our choices. We reserve the right though to turn the tables on cow consumption for a little fun as well. So, anti-vegans, "mooo--ve over." And we need to be able to express what we view as the facts without eliciting rancor.

The little turnip top did the backward flop
The cabbage did the shimmy and she did not stop.
The little beet shook his feet
And the watermelon died with a cockeyed heave.
Little tomater, that agitater,
Did the shimmy with the sweet pertater.
And old man garlic dropped dead with the colic...
Down at the barnyard dance (this mornin')
Down at the barnyard dance........Martin, Bogan and Armstrong wrote a great song.
