Javier Culotte loved to wear shoes.
Javier Culotte loved to wear shoes, He liked them in reds and he loved them in blues. He sometimes wore tall ones, sometimes they were flat, But none of them were leather, he made sure of that. *** “Leather is not natural,” said Javier Culotte, “It’s been tanned with dangerous chemicals. The tanning makes sure…

Isn’t it a yucky thing?
Why would you wear leather? It’s cow skin you know, Or goat skin or calf skin, Or even kangaroo. Why would you want to wear someone else’s skin? Isn’t it a yucky thing to put your body in? Everyone should have the right, if they have no other, To keep their own skin fully attached,…

Come rhyme with me
First these little gems by the lovely Barry Wax: “You will eat anything,” said the cow to the Billy Goat.“Not at all,” the goat burped with the flavor of the shoe on his lips.The cow munched on the cud and thought the remark over.“I am not sure who is worse in habits, you or the pig?”The…

Last but not least …. ‘Big Blue Sky’ Giveaway!
It seemed appropriate to leave this one ’til now because inevitably people will start thinking ahead to Christmas once September gets here. And really, Big Blue Sky is a pre-Christmas story as opposed to a Christmas story because, since people tend to order their turkeys early, if they’re buying direct from the farmer, it would be good…

Cute things children say
My children were brought up vegetarian from birth but when they were very young I didn’t make a fuss about gelatine in sweets that were given to them by other people. However, one day when they were choosing some sweets at the corner shop after school, I decided to explain to them what gelatine was…

The Folly of Expert Opinions
There was a time, long long ago When they thought the world was flat. They worried if they sailed the seas They’d fall off the end of that. In centuries past, in primitive times, They demonized herbal healers. They’d label such gifted folk a witch. Fear and ignorance led to murders. 1908, the Siberian tundra…
