Locavore, Get Your Gun - New York Times

Locavore, Get Your Gun - New York Times: "EVERY year, 15 million licensed hunters head into America’s forests and fields in search of wild game. In New York State alone, roughly half a million hunters harvest around 190,000 deer in the fall deer hunting season — that’s close to eight million pounds of venison. In the traditional vernacular, we’d call that “game meat.” But, in keeping with the times, it might be better to relabel it as free-range, grass-fed, organic, locally produced, locally harvested, sustainable, native, low-stress, low-impact, humanely slaughtered meat."

Well said! Now if I only knew how to hunt.

Thank you David Suzuki. I couldn't have said it any better myself.

Now and Forever - New York Times

Now and Forever - New York Times: "Priorities don’t get much more twisted. A country that can’t find the money to provide health coverage for its children, or to rebuild the city of New Orleans, or to create a first-class public school system, is flushing whole generations worth of cash into the bottomless pit of a failed and endless war."

You go Bob! This man speaks truth to power, and I like it!
