Vegans Help Stamp Out Animal Cruelty -

You might have heard - Peta is proposing a limited edition of Famous Vegetarian postage stamps - Featuring kind thinkers from Pythagoras to Russel Simmons.

I suppose this is a nice compliment to the vanishing species stamps issued by the USPS.

And the postal folks do look like they're trying the "Go Green" message with these stamps.  Great ideas for conservation... 'Cept not one mention of eschewing the largest contributor to global warming: one's unnecessary meat based diet.


Anyway... My favorite stamps have been the Animal Rescue: Adopt a Shelter Pet Stamps promoted by Ellen DeGeneres.  Whenever I've bought them it always gave me an excuse to talk with the clerk about them... And leave one of these MFA Why Love One But Eat The Other fliers as further food for thought.


But I guess the stamp I would be most willing to use would be one that didn't pretty-up reality... I like things blunt as most who know me realize.  So... How about a little honesty to dress up the holiday greeting card exchange?

Just think! If these were successful- Maybe we could issue commemorative slaughterhouse series? Or ones honoring animal testing? Hum...
