At the rib cook off in Reno there was a booth set up by PETA, (People Eating Tasty Animals). They were selling t-shirts with the logo on the front and on the back different slogans. One was, "There is nothing wrong with hugging a tree, so long are you are climbing up to your hunting blind." Another was "There is a place for all God's creatures, right next to my mashed potatoes." I guess PETA never registered their trademark, so these folks could make a little fun out of the issue. I did like "Vegetarian, ancient tribal slang for the village idiot who can't hunt, fish or ride." It never hurts to laugh at ourselves and these folks are helping. I only bought four t-shirts, I am trying to find more. I did find the PETA web site, but they don't advertise the t-shirts. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
