What do I think of Western civilization? I think it would be a very good idea. - Mohandas Gandhi

You're thinking I'm one of those wise-ass California vegetarians who is going to tell you that eating a few strips of bacon is bad for your health. I'm not. I say it's a free country and you should be able to kill yourself at any rate you choose, as long as your cold dead body is not blocking my driveway. - Scott Adams, Dilbert cartoonist

Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut, that held its ground.

Veg Spotlight

Veg Wisdom

Our children may save us if they are taught to care properly for the planet; but if not, it may be back to the Ice Age or the caves from where we first emerged. Then we'll have to view the universe above from a cold, dark place. No more jet skis, nuclear weapons, plastic crap, broken pay phones, drugs, cars, waffle irons, or television. Come to think of it, that might not be a bad idea. - Jimmy Buffet, Singer, Songwriter, Author

Veg Wisdom

Really? Define weird.

"The standard diet of a meat-eater is blood, flesh, veins, muscles, tendons, cow secretions, hen periods and bee vomit. And once a year during a certain holiday in November, meat-eaters use the hollowed-out rectum of a dead bird as a pressure cooker for stuffing. And people think vegans are weird because we eat tofu?"

- Robert Cheeke, vegan bodybuilder

Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit;
Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
