Seems extraordinary. I find it hard to believe that LL would be offered that much money just to open a sale. Seems extraordinary.

I've been vegetarian (no flesh of any origin, no eggs, no milk) for 20 years. When I made the choice I was a kid and very obnoxious about it, carried my soapbox and self-righteousness everywhere with me. I think that lasted a couple of years. My thought was that one should be able to have anything said about what they were consuming while consuming it and not be affected. Additionally, I believed everyone should be able to start from zero to acquire their food. Meaning, if one wanted lamb, one should have it in them to kill the lamb, clean and butcher it prior to cooking and eating. All of this to create a real connection to the circle of life, rather the tidy, sterile lamb chops on styrofoam packages from the market. No one wants to be taken hostage by those messages, particularly while they are eating. The behavior I was party to was only to the detriment of what I wanted to share. I learned from what I was doing wrong and haven't done it in at least 18 years. Now, someone could know me for quite some time before learning I'm vegetarian. Surprisingly I have some liberal views for a veg. For example, I think if a hunter is going to kill a deer and then use all of it's parts, (flesh to eat, hide for leather, and bone for dogs, jewelry, grind into powder and put into capsules for calcium, decoration, whatever) then it's okay. I totally disagree with sport hunting. All of this to get to what I really want to say; that SOME of us are balanced and have a sense of humor, even if it takes a while for us to arrive at that place. It's just really important to us to not be hypocrites. I believe that's why Leona chose not to participate in the Harrod's event. Again, I apologize for the length of this post. -This ain't no hockey game- In advance, I apologize for the length of this post.

Starvation is stronger than invented ethics.
