when someone drowns in the gulf one of the first fish at them is the trigger fish. when ever i go offshore fishing i'll throw those little bastards back even though people rave about how good they are to eat.

Is that what you call them? Puns? I've never heard them called that before. Cute.

You guys must miss all the good stuff by not watching Hispanic television. Today, from Pamplona, Spain, film of PETA's protest against the Running of the Bulls. It's cruel, you know

The world saw at least six lovely young women dressed in nothing at all except black panties and huge bull's horns mounted on their heads

One can only hope that no bulls were harmed in order to acquire said horns, but everything else was ALL natural.

One young man was also present in part of the film, but since you could only see to his waist we don't know how many horns ..... nevermind.

Is that a cable channel?

I like this quote from the article linked in the OP:

Jerry Schubel, aquarium president, said in a statement that the facility served only sustainable and environmentally friendly fish and was committed to educating the public about conserving ocean environments.

Does anybody want to explain to me what an environmentally UNfriendly fish is? What? Do they litter the bottom of the ocean floor with the wrappers from their poodle burgers?

Tonchi, I knew I needed to start watching Spanish language cable channels more often and you have confirmed the intuition I've been having in that regard.

I will say that I do consider bull fighting to be a cruel sport, though.

Sharks with Frickin' LASER BEAMS on their frickin' heads!

And if we can't get that, how about really, really mean sea bass?

Whales with diarrhea have long caused conflict for Greenpeace ... use the Rainbow Warrior to protect them, or ram them because they are spilling raw sewage into the oceans? What to do, oh what to do?

Fish that have been transplanted by humans into ecological niches where they raise hell.

Wouldn't one WANT to eat them in such cases? It WOULD be one way of getting rid of them and solving the problem. Here! Have a nice plate of lamprey eels!

No but plenty of people eat bass and brown trout that are killing off native species to name a couple of the hundreds if not thousands of problems.

I support PETE. I can't think of anything that you should not treat ethically.

Carrot Juice is Murder - Arrogant Worms

Listen up, brothers and sisters
Come hear my desperate tale
I speak of our friends of nature
Trapped in the dirt like a jail

Vegetables live in oppression
Served on our tables each night
This killing of veggies is madness
I say we take up the fight

Salads are only for murderers
Cole slaw's a fascist regime
Don't think that they don't have feelings
Just 'cause a radish can't scream

{Refrain}
I've heard the screams of the vegetables, scream scream scream
Watching their skins being peeled, having their insides revealed
Grated and steamed with no mercy, burning off calories
How do you think that feels, bet it hurts really bad
Carrot juice constitutes murder, and that's a real crime
Greenhouses prisons for slaves, let my vegetables grow
It's time to stop all this gardening, it's dirty as hell
Let's call a spade a spade, it's a spade it's a spade it's a spade

I saw a man eating celery
So I beat him black and blue
If he ever touches a sprout again
I'll bite him clean in two

I'm a political prisoner
Trapped in a windowless cage
'Cause I stopped the slaughter of turnips
By killing five men in a rage

I told the judge when he sentenced me
"This is my finest hour
I'll kill those farmers again
Just to save one more cauliflower"

{Refrain}

How low as people do we dare to stoop
Making young broccolis bleed in the soup
Untie your beans, uncage your tomatoes
Set potted plants free, don't mash that potato, ah

I've heard the screams of the vegetables scream scream scream
Watching their skins being peeled fates in the stir fry are sealed
Grated and steamed with no mercy you fat gourmet scum
How do you think that feels leave them out in the fields
Carrot juice constitutes murder V8's genocide
Greenhouses prisons for slaves yes your compost's a grave
It's time to stop all this gardening take up macramé
Let's call a spade a spade it's a spade it's a spade it's a spade

Uh, I'll be sure to give my uneaten side salad a proper funeral.

Anyone else think PeTA's actual purpose is to discredit the animal-rights philosophy? Their campaigns routinely, maybe usually, backfire. Coincidence, sabotage, or just plain lack of talent?
