Spring Cleaning

It’s officially Spring (Allie and Lis, who sit at the desks next to me, are informing me that it has, in fact, officially been Spring for, like, two weeks already — so, I dunno, sorry for the old news. I’ve been busy, so I only just noticed.) Anyway, for anyone who’s rocking a little Spring cleaning this April, it’s worth remembering that PETA accepts donations of those hideous fur coats from straight out of the ’80s that seem to lurk in closets and attics everywhere, waiting for just the right time to pounce. We mark them up so they can’t be resold, use them in street-theater-style demonstrations, and give them away to the homeless, making the point that only those in desperate need have any excuse to wear fur. Ain’t that just philanthropic as hell? By way of an illustration, here’s an image from a recent demonstration outside a Burberry store conducted by my current favorite PETA entity, PETA Germany.
