Fur is Fabulous

The fur trade was one of the earliest and most important industries in North America. The fur trading industry played a major role in the development of the United States and Canada for more than 300 years.

Saga Furs

Fur breeding is well regulated by national laws and guidelines as well as regulations monitored by the Council of Europe. Today’s mink, fox, and raccoon are domesticated animals that are completely adapted to a sheltered life on the farm.

Dear PETA,

Should you find yourself immersed in a bizarre fit of desire to throw eggs, please aim for the global warming cooks so that I may at least obtain some breakfast. I will take my omelette well done and um...make it a vegetarian.

Kindest Regards..

Only when you truly accept yourself can you be honest with people in your life.

If G-d gave Commandments these days number 11 (or 614) would be...
'Thou shalt remember no one escapes the immenent trail of paper in-eth thy life'

Two things:

1. Have you ever voluntarily paid more on your taxes than you had to?

2. umm..All of the candidates are fairly well to do, always have been.

I overheard a rumor.. March 25th a group of upset fellas will be reconvening to create propaganda induced commercial product market shifts...and they will do it with style.

There was a time when I wrote 3 letters to some non-friends. Not my shining moment of glory.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As they first took refuge on the shores of the New World, from the religious persecutions of the Old, their situation was to the last degree gloomy and disheartening. Few in number, and that number rapidly perishing away through sickness and hardships; surrounded by a howling wilderness and savage tribes; exposed to the rigours of an almost arctic winter, and the vicissitudes of an ever shifting climate; their minds were filled with doleful forebodings, and nothing preserved them from sinking into despondency but the strong excitement of religious enthusiasm.

(I.Washington on the American Plymouth Settlers or, Pilgrims)

******************************

Jewish Settlers in particular have been a convenient target: like Hashmonaim, all the settlements are isolated dots engulfed by Palestinian villages. Given the hilly topography of the West Bank settlers have often found themselves like ducks in a shooting gallery, driving their cars on angry roads, snipers shooting from above. Many have died that way. Surrounded by suicide bombings on buses, cafes, and streets, New Israelis are intimately acquainted with death.
