Vegetarians: Stop reading now


This was the slightly surreal scene at Madison Square Park, just a couple of blocks from MoCCA this past weekend. Imagine my surprise when I got out of a cab to find a suckling pig laid out on a park bench. The piggie was about to be carved without sentiment of any kind by a short woman with a long knife. A really long knife.

Just the perfect entry into the world of cartoonists and comicbook writers.

More about them soon, truly.

It looks like some giant galactic slug that might have been brought by comic book writers for show-your-muse hour.

How odd, yet crispy.

EWWWW!!! But probably okay if you're part of the Hunger Games.

My older son turned vegetarian when he was five. His assumption, up until that decision, was that milk came out of one of the cow's teets and bologna came out of the other teet. He cannot bring himself to eat anything with a face. I teased him a few years ago at a restaurant by ordering a bowl of fancy seafood soup---the different little fishies and sea creatures floated around the top. I let the fins of something dangle out of my mouth and when my son saw me, he threw up all over this fancy table.

Do what now? Sounds like a PETA protest, for sure.
