There's actually a totally practical reason for not eating dogs (at least on a regular basis....): Calorie effeciency. Dogs are basically carnivores, so they eat other animals. Cows, on the other hand, are basically herbivoes, and just eat plants. Being closer to the plants, you get a better calorie efficiency off of cows than you do off of Dogs.

And before the vegitarians jump on me, meat's still the most personal time-effective method of intaking protien, although you can meet dietary needs strickly via plants.

Hey, dogs are humans' best friend. We shouldn't eat friends!

Sure if people were farming dogs then the calorie efficiency might be a factor. Given the large number of strays and dogs that are put to sleep you might as well do something with them, why not lunch?

And to Kamog: Dogs are no friend of mine. And with an attitude like that you'll never make a polar explorer.

So anyways, I'm house sitting for some friends this weekend and come to find out that they have wireless internet (woohoo!) and that it works with my laptop (another woohoo!). THis now means taht I won't iss out on any schlockness, penguin invasions, or the great banter here.

I've never skeeted in my life. All those charges were dropped and I was acquited after that convienient fire in the evidence storage facility. It's libelous I tell you!

"Libel" in Dutch is "dragonfly". They dropped dragonflies on you? Oh the horror!
