Something Creative
As an obsessive user of Twitter (when left to my own devices…Hubby went camping) I spent many hours following conversations & participating in one which could lead to the election of a very different administration in 2012. Rather than explain the events I shall let you my dear reader witness history in action. (A quick side note: I am not editing these for spelling, grammar or punctuation. It does drive me crazy but what can I do…this is how it REALLY happened.)
Morticia626: Since PETA wants fish renamed sea kittens…
TerenceSmelser: @Morticia626 ok, I’ll bite, what’s a sea kitten? otter?
Morticia626: @TerenceSmelser PETA wants fish to be called sea kittens,so people stop eating them. I’m not kidding
TerenceSmelser: @Morticia626 LOL still fish, still food. a shame that people (term used loosely) like PETA cant direct that energy to something that matters.
Morticia626: @TerenceSmelser but they’ve given us so much entertainment. 
TerenceSmelser: @Morticia626 true enough. Hope one never steps between me and a bucket full of crab legs. WTF do these idiots want us to eat?
At this point I had to join the conversation. I like animals…I have dogs & they are a part of my family. I don’t believe in torturing animals for any purpose. However, I do believe in eating some of them. I nice big steak, grilled to perfection with a glass of good wine is an exquisite experience. As far as I’m concerned if God didn’t want us to eat the animals he would have given them better defenses & made them less tasty. You don’t hear a lot about the eating of the more vicious animals. Besides renaming an entire genus & species of animals is beyond absurd. Don’t these PETA people realize that cats eat fish?!
nil17: @TerenceSmelser unfortunately soy anything and vegetables. Until they start to attribute feelings to those too.
Morticia626: @TerenceSmelser beans,sprouts,tofu…who knows. They’re nuts.
Morticia626: @nil17 I know I’ve heard green beans scream while I was picking them. *son* it’s hard to think about 
nil17: @Morticia626 I know and all those eyes on the potatoes looking at me…It makes me uncomfortable.
TerenceSmelser: @nil17 @Morticia626 do they? I likes me veggies but a big slab of dead cow now thats a meal Perhaps they should assist those that NEED food
Morticia626: @TerenceSmelser mmmmm dead cow! I also enjoy dead sheep and pig. Cooked of course. @nil17 y don’t potatoes have rights? I’m pretty sure they registered and voted this year
TerenceSmelser: @Morticia626 some voted twice… well ok, they were as smart as potatos
Morticia626: @nil17 @TerenceSmelser maybe next time the sea kittens can vote. Or run for pres as a democrat
I’ll skip ahead here a bit as we cast aspersions at various members of the incoming administration and many other people…it’s boring & you can use your imagination to fill the gaps. (here’s a small sample: nil17: @Morticia626 maybe that’s where all the votes for Franken came from)
nil17: @Morticia626 @TerenceSmelser it can be a whole ticket : Sea Kitten/Potato 2012
TerenceSmelser: @Morticia626 @nil17 #Sea Kitten/Potato 2012
nil17: @Morticia626 @TerenceSmelser I wonder if they’d run on a cedar plank platform with dipping sauce…mmmm fish & chips.
TerenceSmelser: @nil17 Malt vinager for Chief of Staff?
nil17: @TerenceSmelser yes and Tall Beer for Sec of State.
TerenceSmelser: @nil17 ok, now thats a party i can get behind!
nil17: @TerenceSmelser LOL Tater Salad as the Sec of Defense.
TerenceSmelser: @nil17 or chief justice
So now you can see how it all starts. A small group of people decide to back a candidate & they spread the word (#Sea Kitten/Potato 2012). Soon there are fundraising dinners (obviously we’ll just serve air & water…can’t offend the base constituents by serving meat or veggies), campaign signs
and speeches. (“We are here today to move in a new direction. A direction where there are no boundaries, anyone can accomplish anything and equal rights for all inanimate objects…”). Aren’t you anxious to get involved & help with this grassroots effort?
