Sorry, the polar bears will not be bailed out. Which brings me to the topic of women and animals. Women must be at the forefront of a movement that recognized animals as sentient beings. There are still too many women wearing fur and ignoring the suffering that is behind the fur industry. Women are still taking their children to the circus to see wild animals perform. Please, my sisters, understand that we can never be considered civilized as long as we tolerate any suffering, including that which is endured by animals for our stupid pleasures.
Hey Diane, What a thrill to hear from You This is so much fun…
to hear from you out of the blue. I miss you too. Next time I’m in
N.Y. let’s all get together. Let’s keep in touch,Jane
Wow - I never thought it but I guess whale actually do have a “carbon footprint” - all animals breathe in oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. But they eat the small animals and keep them in balance and those animals (or the animals they eat) eat plants. Mmmm. Plant exchange carbon dioxide for oxygen so they have a negative carbon footprint, so if we get rid of ALL the animals, we will eventually solve the problems.
I vote for another solution, please. I want the human race to continue, thank you, and our other animal friends in the biosphere.
Best long term solution: Limit your reproduction.
I love getting everyone’s feedback.It’s so great to have this exchange and I read every comment. I especially appreciate you regulars…so does Edith Ann! She’s still working on her hand made Mother’s day present so she asked my to write for her. Speaking of you regulars…Mugs, Susanne, and “the one in the curlers” and oh, so many others…ThanksJ so much for your brilliance and your wonderful stories. Your imput is so valuable to us all. Jane
Jane,
I have been a Lily Tomlin fan forever, and when I found out you write most if not all the material, I was very impressed!
Now, I get to view some of your other talents! I love to hate the care-toons. At least the ones about the bears and the whale - I did not look at the others as yet, I felt a need to hurry and let you know what a great job you are doing. The term Care-toons is much easier for me to handle, bc these are NOT funny! Obviously, they could be… I like what you chose to do, instead. Make a not-so-subtle point.
Ain’t it grand just how wonderfully gifted and talented so many women really are? I absolutely love this website, and feel fortunate to share with so many amazing women!
It keeps HOPE alive in a world really MUCKEDUP!
Thank you ALL!
