Chinese aren't the only ones.....

[St. Jimmy]

LONDON - A British artist has eaten chunks of a corgi dog, the breed favored by Queen Elizabeth II, live on radio to protest the royal family's treatment of animals.

Mark McGowan, 37, said he ate "about three bites" of the dog meat, cooked with apples, onions and seasoning, to highlight what he called Prince Philip's mistreatment of a fox during a hunt by the queen's husband in January.

"It was pretty disgusting," McGowan said of the meal, which he ate while appearing on a London radio station Tuesday. Yoko Ono, another guest on the show, also tried the meat.

Well. That's... just... interesting. Worked, though. I mean, Americans are reading about it.

[umop ap!sdn]

I thought it was the Koreans who were eating dog. Cat skeletons were supposedly found behind Chinese restaurants. :P

[Superluminal]

Koreans and Chinese both like dog meat, but mostly Koreans.

Makes a lot of sense, protest the mistreatment of animals by...eating an animal.

Not to mention that I was under the impression that Yoko was a strict vegetarian.

Oh, well, anything for a little protesting, I guess.

Well that is the glory of radio, innit? You can do whatever you imagine. I once ate a whole rhinoceros on the radio. Ask the listeners, they heard me do it. Radio is a great medium, I look great on the radio. You can look as good as you want to on the radio.

[Superluminal]

You look pretty good on the net as well.

[Lance]

Some people on the net would look better in a net.

[Enzo]

One of those net-net deals.

[pedant mode] The Queen's dogs are mostly dorgis; daschund - corgi crosses. Her mum had corgis. [/pedant mode]

I remember a guy eating a rhino live on air, I didn't know it was you Enzo.

[troubleagain]

Hmmm. I beg Dorgis are cute.

[Superluminal]

They taste pretty good too. Just use beef stroganoff hamburger helper. Dorgis meat instead of hamburger. Had it last night, delicious. Using rice oriental tonight, smells great.

[Enzo]

A new way to think of puppy chow.

Why not just cut to the chase and use Dorgis Helper?

[Heid the Ba]

All together now:

"How much is that dorgi in the window . . ."

[Lance]

But please, do not put ketchup on your hot dorgies.

[troubleagain]

I like my hotdorgies naked.

[Enzo]

I'm aheadin' out west to punch me some dorgis.

[troubleagain]

::sings:: Get a loooooong, little Dorgies.

[MM_Dandy]

I helped work some dorgis (dorgies, dorgae?) just a couple of weeks ago. Branding them is kinda tricky, but once you get the hang of it, it's not too bad. The worst is herding them damn things - almost as bad as cats, I'd say. But let me tell you, roasting them on a spit with a little BBQ sauce, it goes great with a can of Schlitz.

Satire - I get it now.

[Enzo]

They still make Schlitz?

[Lance]

They still make Schlitz?

It seems they do, but it's a different "they" now.
