This coming Monday is International Eat an Animal for PETA Day… PETA regularly annoys me, but one of their recent ad campaigns, which likens farming to the holocaust (after all, a human being is no more valuable than a chicken, right?) is exceptionally disgusting.
Because I know my Tuscaloosa folks love their meat, I’m proposing that we go above and beyond the call of duty on Monday. How? Eat SEVERAL Animals for PETA.
Work with me here, folks… what I’d like to do is organize an outing for each meal of the day which centers around meat. It’ll be fun. If one (or more) of you Tuscaloosa folks would like to join me for one (or more) of the meals, leave a comment, IM, or send an email… plans are subject to change and negotiation, but here’s my initial thought:
Breakfast: Waffle House or IHOP — if you’re poor like me, you can get a water and a side-order of bacon or sausage, it’ll only cost a few bucks! I’ve got a 9:00am class, so how’s 8:00am? We could also do this on Sunday Night (after midnight) preferences?
Lunch: Fast food. PETA hates McDonalds, so maybe we could go there? I’ve got a gap in classes between noon and 2:00pm…
Dinner: Outback or Dreamland — steak or ribs… YUM!
At the very least, I’d love it if my Tusclaoosa folks would try to make dinner… as a show of appreciation, I’ll buy the first round of drinks and/or appetizers for everyone who comes. No joke. (Dreamland doesn’t have that kind of thing, so I’ll spring for desert or drinks at someone’s apartment… whatever)
So let me know if you’re up for it… this means you Rachel, Amanda, Daniel, etc… invite your PETA-hating friends. It’ll be fun.

Count me in! I can be available for a late dinner.
Mmmmmm…..Dreamland…..you can count me in too Pete…I’ll be playing along on the road live from Columbia, Missouri. Maybe we can hook up something via satellite or something.
Matt, you know good and well that the federal government has disallowed our communication via satellite citing “National Security Concerns.”
Maybe next year!
