![]() That little piggie is so cute.
![]() Not to take away from the farm animals who do deserve more humane lives (to take a peek of what mass production looks like, clips from Food, Inc.: chickens http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=enwU5jIXSlU cows: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NkhdGG5pVW8 ), but this was announced today: International March for Elephants (as well as a digital march and tweet) on October 4th: http://www.iworry.org/ (petition towards the end of the home page as well) What the poachers do to these beautiful, intelligent and sensitive animals is about the most brutal thing you will ever see. The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust http://www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/ has a sanctuary where many of the orphans are raised after they have lost their mothers to poachers. Kristin Davis (from Sex and the City) has also begun a fund/campaign to raise money for DSWT: http://www.crowdrise.com/nopoaching/...r/kristindavis

![]() To my friends who enjoy a glass of wine
and those who don't and are always seen with a bottle of water in their hand: As Ben Franklin said: In wine there is wisdom, In beer there is freedom, In water there is bacteria. In a number of carefully controlled trials, Scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 liter of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. Coli) - bacteria found in feces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop annually. However, We do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer (or rum, whiskey or other liquor) because alcohol has to go through a purification process of boiling, filtering and fermenting. Remember: Water = Poop, Wine = Health Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of ****. There is no need to thank me for this valuable information: I'm doing it as a public service

Chipotle is my go-to when on the road. They not only are more responsible as to where their food comes from, but many of the locations donate to their local food bank each night (as does Panera).
