So I finally got around to watching the first few episodes of Lil’ Bush yesterday (now that the season’s over - how’s that for procrastination?), and it’s actually funny. The commercials just didn’t do it justice, I guess. I especially got a kick out of this clip.
Clam-hugging vegan goodness at the 36s mark.
There must be a veg*n on the writing staff. * (Oh, I hope there’s a veg*n on the writing staff!)
* Reason being, I’d expect ‘em to use the term “vegetarian” over “vegan” 9 out of 10 times…do most people even know what a vegan is?

Is it just me, or did anyone else get the impression that the Colbert Report staff solicited Monday’s guest (as opposed to the guest’s reps begging the show for a plug) ? Like, just because the book’s tag line tied in neatly with Stephen’s core values? Poor Dr. G. seemed better suited for a medical conference than a spot on a late-night talk show. And a satirical one, at that.
Coincidentally, my second brain was, ahem, having an anxiety attack this morning, as Shane and I had an appointment to meet with our GC to negotiate a contract for the upcoming-as-in-any-day-now reno on our new house. Long story short, both my first and second brains are on board now, though an off-handed revelation did open up a whole ‘nother can of worms. Let’s just say, it’s tough being a vegan in the “heart”land.
Via Defenders of Wildlife, a really cute but totally time-wasting, errr, time waster:
Visit YouWild.org and transform yourself — or a friend, family member, or pet — into a wolf pup, panda, sea otter, or one of our other adorable, majestic, or scary-looking critters!
Just create your personal animal morph page, and then share it with friends, family, co-workers and others to help us raise awareness about the plight of our imperiled wildlife.
YouWild.org is simple to use — you start by choosing one of twenty one different imperiled animals. Then, upload a photo of your own or choose a sample photo from our gallery of people and animals.
Finally, watch as the face you chose gradually transforms into your chosen animal. And if you like the results, you can save your morph and send it to your friends and family (and even post it on your website, blog or MySpace page)!
Your ‘Do You Want the Terrorists to Win’ Score: 81%
You are a terrorist-loving scoundrel who hates our dear leader and the values he defends. There are few redeeming qualities about you. You most likely celebrated when the evil-doers hit us on 9/11, then opposed the Iraq war when we tried to pay them back. You hurt us at every step and cause troops to die in the field by questioning Bush’s decisions. You are most likely a lost cause, doomed to be a brainwashed victim of free thought and liberalism forever. No dose of Ann Coulter’s prose can save you now.
I’m glad you took this quiz. If it came out that you are an America-hating scumbag, the authorities are probably already on to you. Hopefully you are actually a pro-war Republican patriot, and if so, please cast a vote in November in support of George W. Bush. The liberal forces are plotting against him and we’ll need you to help ensure his winning policies remain unchanged for years to come!
