Not so Fast

People often ask me, "Baroness, how do you manage to be such a staunch animal activist supporter and spiritual observer?"

Well, let me tell all those inquiring minds out there - people, it is hard.

And thanks to one Miss Brigitte Bardot, it just got a little bit harder.

Some facts:

1) Today is Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. In observance, we fast until sunset.

2) At sunset, Jewish families all over the world will choose a celebratory meal; delicious, nutritious and easy-to-digest.

3) My favorite Break-The-Fast meal? Seal Flipper Pie. It is a true slice of Canadiana.

4) My favorite condiment for #3? Maple Syrup. Seriously. Maple Syrup = Nectar of the Gods.

Feces* would be edible with maple syrup.

Yet, according to Miss Brigitte and PETA, I should be boycotting the Canadian Maple Syrup manufacturers until Canada agrees to ban the slaughter of seals.

According to the actress, "...ethical reactions from consumers can sometimes convince a government or a corporation to change the way that it does business."

Well, even though I have all day to do nothing but reflect and meditate? I'll tell you, I'm going to have a hard time chewing over this one.


(* I'm just guessing on this one)
