A stupid insult to Vegan Minstrel. How's your health? Been to the hospital lately? Good luck on your quintuple bypass.

Thank you, Veggie. I'm the guy who had the quint, BTW, not Rob. I'm recovering well. Drove a car for the first time in six weeks. And I have to say, animal protein sources have played, and will continue to play, a vital role in my recovery. ..... But you're not completely off base -- excessive (as opposed to moderate) consumption of animal protein undoubtedly played a role in my near demise.

drool coming off my vangs

Excessive consumption of fatty foods almost caused me to fulfill a prophecy I made in February of 2008 (http://www.amiright.com/parody/misc/tinwoodsmanwizardofoz0.shtml). I prefer chicken and white fish to beef, and do not eat shellfish, pork or similar "unclean" animals. Learned it from religious sources (Armstrong Church of God and Nation of Islam) though I never practiced either religion. In grade school I learned that spices and sauces were developed to disguise spoiled meat, so I tend to avoid those too. Fully cooked, please. Raw or undercooked scares me. I have an aversion to alcohol due to its taste and the problems I have seen it cause among some in my family and friends. If I live long enough I will probably get cancer, heart disease or similar. Or I could get hit by a bus driving home tonight. There is a preferred way to expire, which I am trying to develop into a parody.

When it's your time to go, it's your time to go. Think of those in Paris cafe or the earlier Kosher market that were gunned down by terrorists. Everyday in Israel Security Forces, IDF, and civilians including Rabbis have to worry about being shot, knifed, or run over by militant Palis .. also a rocket attack at any time of day!

oh yeah my taster's ready for T-Day! 5's

Veggie's comment as well as that joke license plate I have seen gives me an idea.
