I donated to PETA
 

Swiped from rec.hunting. Thought it was hilarious

My wife and I came in from turkey hunting the other morning, and while
the coffee was brewing she started sorting the junk out of the mail.
When she made a disgusted sound and dropped an envelope in the trash, I
glanced in and found it was from our good friends at the People for the
Ethical Treatment of Animals. (We assume they got my wife's name from a
horse magazine she subscribes to.) Seems PETA wanted a donation.

As a dedicated sportsman, I am of course quite in favor of the ethical
treatment of animals, so I put together a very nice little donation and
filled PETA's 1st Class Postage-guaranteed return envelope about as full
as I could get it. My donation included: a photograph of me posing with
a nice whitetail buck I killed ethically with my bow; a bronze-colored
back-feather from the turkey my wife had ethically killed that very
morning; a recipe for the ethical grilling of venison backstrap; and
just in case someone at PETA wants to load their own ammo so they can
also treat an animal ethically themselves, a zip-lock baggie containing
about 3-4 oz. of lead #6 shot. Gosh, it sure feels good to contribute to
such a worthy cause.

I like this approach. I've informed them via e-mail that every time I am
accosted by one of their members or see them on TV in some action I will
purchase veal and cook and eat it in their honor. They haven't responded.

I too have donated to PETA, I have so far donated three times to the
GOP nationial committee the same way. Just to be suret they didn't
send those 8x10 glossys out to someone else I altered them slightly.
I have also returned some literatrue to the NRA, Shrub is more of
threat to our rights than any Democrat.

At least we're helping create jobs at the USPS.

Things are going to start getting PRETTY tight around the ole USPS. With
the upcoming mass layoffs of Team Lance, I imagine most Americans are going
to start sending their mail via the Belgian Postal Service or the Italian
Postal Service.

PETA?
Oh, you surely mean "People Eating Tasty Animals", don't you?
Anyway, this is the way I address them in my "Fan mail".... :-))
