We took the kids to the zoo when they were young and my oldest, then about three, asked me if the Eland was tasty. I thought the lady next to us was going to have a seizure.

But at least they're not like the Japanese kids at the aquarium I visited in Tokyo, who went to each tank and pointed saying "Oishi! Oishi!"

(Delicious).

Anon, That's great! When we lived in Taiwan in the early 60's we ate a lot of "pets" and zoo animals (probably some we didn't even know about). JD, LOL! And we thought it was the piety of our Mission's services that was causing everyone to see visions. :)

Too true!

Half a year spent fasting - the real reason there are no Greek cowboys.

It is really only during lent that I can't shake those words from the Book of Jim Gaffigan: fun to pet, better to chew.

Oscar Wilde was right: I can resist all things except temptation.

Thanks for the laugh!
