Your boys can swim in the cold water but they might suffer from significant shrinkage.

That's enough, George.

Yeah right! I'm waiting to hear just how many furs BR has! I am not a member of PETA, btw.

me neither. best peta story ever though - this really stupid guy had a little puppy in a crate in freezing waether - just left it there - somebody looked up the number of some peta people and the puppy just disappeared - the guy came into work totally pissed off - turns out they had hacked his credit card number and put the puppy in the best suite of the posh-est hotel in town with full room service doggie meals 3 times a day! served the a$$hole right - and the guy that gave him the puppy took the puppy back!

The name is Art Vandelay, or is it Buck Naked?

I'm intentionally being annoying (LOLOL), but I guess I need to pick up the furs at Neiman's tomorrow so I'll be warm at the beach. Velvet isn't warm enough, honey!

:floor:
Well done, I might add! :razz:

I am mixed on the fur thing. I mean, I like leather and eat meat. I have a steak in the fridge and a saddle on my stairwell railing. Love my leather shoes. Crave my KFC. Animals are dying for me.

BUT- I have a fur phobia from 2 traumatic childhood events. At church, I always ended up in the pew behind the lady with the fox stole. The kind with the little beady eyed fox heads - and she always had them looking back at ME. Nightmarish.

My grandfather was the "Cadillac" generation- he thought the 2 possessions of a successful man were a big Caddie and a fur coat for his wife (maybe he was pre-P Diddy). I will never forget the look on her face when she opened up that fur coat Christmas morning- I thought she was going to pass out. She dam# near did, and not out of happiness. Someone managed to capture the moment on film- not her most flattering picture. She hated that critter and never wore it. Same with the Cadillac- made my grandfather drive it.

BTW- PETA needs a new spokesperson. The people who dig Pamela Anderson are the last people who are going to quit eating KFC, and probably wouldn't know a research lab if it hit them in their a$$. They are looking at her boobs. PETA donations are being horribly misspent by their clueless PR. When they can start throwing some legit and literate spokespeople out, I might give them a listen. Right now, they are just funny.

Sorry, rant. I'm in a mood tonight. Dinner at my MIL's. :shock:
Actually, I was just starting to enjoy it! No funnin'.

Not intended as a slam BR. Sorry that's how you took it. I was just puzzled. Not intending to try and change your mind. It's ok if we all don't agree. We're all friends here. Aren't we?:idontno:
Of course. I love you guys.

I was given an entire lesson yesterday on Tissavel by the former ball and chain - not faux but simulant! The best there is/costs same or even more/no blood vial needed. Who knew? "Don't wear it if you don't eat it."

Very interesting... I viewed the website. But you know, some people just want the real thing. I'll NEVER understand it.

But then again, it's gotten the same way for meat eaters (which I am one). We used to be able to argue that at least the animals were not tortured by horrible deaths in order for us to eat. But now, they suffer almost as badly as the animals slaughtered only for their fur. It's a difficult and sad situation.
