"Their miniature pigs have been creating works of modern art which sell for up to £16 each and have so far raised more than £150 for the Farm Crisis Network charity. "

Those pigs're getting ripped off if that's all they're making on their paintings. There's a turtle in Connecticut that sells paintings on eBay for MUCH more than that! http://www.turtlekiss.com/

Just so you know, there's NO WAY I'm going to open the "fart pigs" thread. Just. no. way.

You have to, it's hilarious.

BigV...those pigs are like those cows, arent' they? I saw some in Vegas a couple years ago, and got a small cow with Starry Night painted on it.

in belize i saw pigs (well, hogs really) that were almost as big as horses... i like the little ones better

pigs always make me think of how my cousin drew a picture of two pigs having sex when she was like... 10, one of the pigs was pooping at the same time... damn, i love my family.

that'll do pig, that'll do

and the fact that they will eat anything, including people and each other, if given a chance

yeah, I know--they're supposed to make good pets.

But they're so UGLY.

Just like people... I mean long pig.

Personally I think chickens are ugly, dirty, and nasty... until they are rotisseried.

Agreeing totally in return.
I find chickens repulsive alive (although I try to make sure the ones that go into ma belly have lived a reasonable life)

I think pigs are adorable, from squealing piglings to big fat porkers. The most useful animals in the world, surely? You can eat just about every bit of them, wear their skin, ride them, race them, make them dive... Oh the list goes on and on...

I even made an effort to visit the pigs on my Mum's 60th birthday! Cellar link

Don't bite off more than you can chew.

...er...let me rephrase that:

Don't write a check your ass can't cash.
