    I suppose a joke about exploiting dumb animals would be entirely unfair to the young lady in the picture?

    Stage one we say nothing is going to happen.
    Stage two, we say something may be about to happen, but we should do nothing about it.
    Stage three, we say that maybe we should do something about it, but there's nothing we can do.
    Stage four, we say maybe there was something we could have done, but it's too late now.

    Here's more about the Lettuce Ladies and the Broccoli Boys. For promoting vegetarianism, they are showing a lot of flesh.

    Is it just me, or is Ricardo sporting a string of sausage links around his neck (not to mention his intensely patriotic speedo)?

    Oaty, I'm just trying to show some self restraint. I had a couple of choice comments about "lettuce and tomatoes" and "salad dressing" in my post above, but decided not to inflict my brand of pun-ishment on this thread. Now aren't you glad that I didn't make these comments? 'Twas a near thing.
