Comments on: The annual International Eat a Tasty Animal for PETA (IEATAPETA) Day http://www.yourish.com/2008/03/04/4480 Cutting straight to the point Mon, 13 Feb 2012 02:14:35 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.1 By: Zach http://www.yourish.com/2008/03/04/4480/comment-page-1#comment-31214 Zach Tue, 11 Mar 2008 01:28:22 +0000 http://www.yourish.com/2008/03/04/4480#comment-31214 The sad thing is that EATAFPD always falls during Lent, a time when many Christians do not eat meat. However, according to long tradition, Sundays are not fast days. And, of course, Sundays begin at sunset the evening before. Therefore, although I am avoiding meat at all other times, when the sun sets I will cook up my famous 6-species chili. Mmmm tasty!

I may not <b><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118715/quotes" rel="nofollow">roll on Shabbos</a></b>, but if there's kosher meat... I'm there, wearing my <b><a href="http://www.cafepress.com/aaronscase/1264717" rel="nofollow">holiday swag</a></b>. This year, I get to enjoy the fact that I have a new son-in-law (as of 3 weeks ago) to enjoy the celebration, which happens annually on my daughter's birthday. The Ides of March: a bad day for Caesars and liberal totalitarian (ok, that's redundant) PETAniks.

Glad Laurence reminded me. Last time I was in Nashville and had to celebrate in my hotel room. I think I will set up my own little gathering at home and bar-b-que.

Indeed how about a dvar torah comparing PETA and Amalek. Both attempt to destroy a nation by attacking at the weakest point. Both pretend to have a <i>lofty</i> goal but only want to kill.

(There's a Ted's Montana Grill where I work, which has it's good and bad points. Good: Unusual meats, like Bison available. Bad: Owned by Ted Turner.)
