"'Protecting the Environment' is a ruse. The goal is the political and economic subjugation of most men by the few, under the guise of preserving nature."-- J. H. Robbins
"There is nothing wrong with the planet. The planet is fine ... been here 4 1/2 billion years. We've been here, what, a 100,000 years, maybe 200,000. And we've only been engaged in heavy industry a little over 200 years. 200 years versus 4 1/2 billion. And we have the conceit to think that somehow we're a threat? The planet isn't going away. We are." -- George Carlin
Global Sustainability requires: "the deliberate quest of poverty ... reduced resource consumption ... and set levels of mortality control."-- Professor Maurice King
"The urge to save humanity is almost always a false front for the urge to rule."-- H. L.Mencken
"It is easy to be conspicuously 'compassionate' if others are being forced to pay the cost."-- M. N. Rothbard
"We must make this an insecure and inhospitable place for capitalists and their projects . . . We must reclaim the roads and plowed land, halt dam construction, tear down existing dams, free shackled rivers and return to wilderness millions of tens of millions of acres of presently settled land."-- David Foreman, Earth First!
". . . The collective needs of non-human species must take precedence over the needs and desires of humans."-- Dr. Reed F. Noss, The Wildlands Project

"Isn't the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn't it our responsibility to bring that about?"-- Maurice Strong, Head of the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro

This is how the Prince and I celebrate Earth Day every year:

A New Project...

"I want to keep fighting because it is the only thing that keeps me out of the hamburger joints. If I don’t fight, I’ll eat this planet."-- George Foreman
"Oh, yes. Well, not exactly wine-and-dine me as lager-and-hamburger me."
-- Laura Dalton, A Fine Romance
"You look like a vampire. Eat your hamburger. All that health food stuff will kill you."-- Joel Millner, Grace of My Heart
"You know how Americans are, Kiki. They all love to travel, and then they only want to meet other Americans and talk about how hard it is to get a decent hamburger."-- Hans, Naked Lunch
"There's nothing in the world that can compare
With a hamburger, juicy and rare
A hamburger lives for the pleasure it gives
It's a thrill-on-the-bill affair
Such heavenly food deserves the best
A home and contentment beneath my vest
There's nothing in the world that's so divine
As a hamburger, tender and fine
I adore you, hamburger mine."
-- Wimpy, No Spinach?
"I'd just come from the stockyards. We'd gotten reports of hundreds of cows had been senselessly slaughtered in the area, but I couldn't find any evidence. I stopped off for a hamburger and checked in with headquarters."-- Det. Frank Drebin, Police Squad

The Prince Consort and I were looking for something new to amuse ourselves. We decided that rating hamburgers in our area was just the thing to help with our ennui. (Note the frenchy talk Cigarhead!)

We have assumed a pseudonymn for this purpose and if you are interested in following our adventures, visit Burgers in the Berks.

Stay cool and safe!

GGRR!!!

"Murder offers the promise of vast relief."-- Norman Mailer

My Kitty Croaked :^(

"Of all God’s creatures there is only one that cannot be made the slave of the lash. That one is the cat. If man could be crossed with a cat it would improve man, but it would deteriorate the cat."-- Mark Twain
"Death, that hath sucked the honey of thy breath,
Hath had no power yet upon thy beauty.
Thou art not conquered."-- Romeo Montague, Romeo & Juliet
"Dogs have owners... Cats have staff."--Anonymous

The beginning of March was extremely difficult for the Prince Consort and me. On March 3rd, the Prince found our beloved cat prostrate on our kitchen floor. We both rushed her to the animal hospital, but unfortunately, she was in a bad way to the extent that she had to be put down. We don't know if she had a stroke or a heart attack or if her kidney's finally gave out, so we decided to put her to rest. It was horrible!

We had to focus that she was 17 years old, so that is fabulous for a cat to live that long. Our girl was a grumpy one who loved us, but hated everyone else. She loathed going to the vet and it was always traumatic for her.

I had been given her as a gift from a previous admirer. It was just the two of us for a while until my Prince came along. She was extremely skittish, was terrified of everything, and didn't really like affection! She also quacked like a duck as opposed to meowing like a cat. She sounds like a terror, but was very human-like.

When she met the Prince, it was love at first sight... of course she always like men more than women, but with them it was special. I have to admit, I was a bit jealous now and then. I would come home and would get the look... "Why do you continue to come back. Can't you see we want to be alone?"

When the Prince and I came back from our honeymoon back in 2000, she was a different cat! She wanted pets, I got her to like to be held, and just within the past year, she drank out of a glass for her water. I kid you not! She liked it with 3 ice cubes! We were a really happy little family... even if at times I thought she was a little bitch in a cheap fur coat!

In the late Spring, we are burying the "decorative tin" that she returned in. Very surreal! *SNIFF*

I really do miss her.

Stay cool and safe!
