Friends, We Too Have A Cause
Tim Blair boldly and courageously issues a Call To Dinner
For the entire duration of the UN climate change conference in Copenhagen, I am joining fellow activists in a radical protest for climate justice. We pledge to eat even more than usual, every single day, until our demands are met. People, we are the face – and especially the mouth – of change. We are Climate Justice Feast!
I humbly pledge to devote all of my energy to this noble endeavor.
I do it for the children.

I hereby pledge to fire up the charcoal grill to deplete Earth’s precious cow supply then let the insidious coals turn to ash. Consumption of CO2-laced, manmade beer will be required. This being the holidays, only people with jobs wil be invited.
You are a beautiful person, Gary.
I know I speak for Gaia when I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Wanamassa will be at your disposal, Mr. B. You might even find some pretty good Portuguese wine-in-a-box, which as you know is made of the finest chemicals ever to make Ralph Nader catatonic.
Eat more is great, but don’t forget to also “buy nationally”.
It’s too cold to barbecue here, but I did oven broil a steak last night, while the fireplace had a merry fire indeed.
Gary – wow, I didn’t know you were so local to me. We’re going to have to draft you into one of our gas-guzzling, cheesesteak-consuming road trips to Philly. Failing that, we’ll have to contribute to local warmering, preferably in front of a roaring fireplace. I hear JeffS has one.
We can meet at that Costco near the Target/Sears shopping center and purchase mass quantities for the occasion.
…And he said the word! And what was the word, dear friends?
HOTDOG!
Yes, dear friends, a mighty HOT DOG is our lord. I’m not talking about hate – I’m talking about eight. Dinner at eight. LET”S EAT!

Hey, Nightfly,
Draft gratefully accepted. However, given I live so close to Target and only drive a Malibu, I’ll rent a three-ton Expedition, come to East B. to collect you and eight close friends (adds weight, you know) then take local roads to South Philly. Uses more gas and we can cook those steaks on the engine. The Ford’ll be big enough for half a keg or a cubic yard of boxed wine.
