One thing you can say about the HobbyWorld crowd is that they are a seemingly never-ending source of real entertainment! 
Pamela Anderson is not a happy camper today. It seems her plea for clemency for the chickens of Kentucky has been denied. I don’t know if she’ll appeal.
As a celebrity spokesperson for PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) she has lead a charge to get a bust of Colonel Harland Sanders, founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken, removed from the Kentucky State Captial.
Now, making fun of this is so easy that it hardly seems worth doing.
Take for example her campaign against the use of leather, while wearing leather from head to toe in her movie ‘Barb Wire’. And then there is her campaign to not use animals for medical research, while fund raising for the American Liver Foundation due to her own condition of Hepatitis C.
Then there is her interview on Larry King Live. When asked why she’s a vegetarian she replies in part:
I don’t like meat. I don’t like, you know, I don’t like meat. I don’t like the texture of meat. I don’t like where it comes from…. [snip] …. And being involved with PETA so long, you get to know a lot about how meat is prepared and slaughtering and all that stuff.
Then Larry King asked her about leather:
I have a lot of leather shoes actually.
But she goes on to explain that she’s working towards getting products produced that doesn’t use leather.
But that’s the hardest thing is the leather part of it. A lot of things are leather.
Larry King asked her:
Are you against vivisection, the treatment of animals to detect disease?
She stumbled a minute and continued about the slaughtering of animals for KFC. Then she found her footing:
Vivisection. I thought you meant vasectomy. I’m against those, too. No.
But this chicken thing is just too funny to pass up.
Last year Pamela complained that chickens raised for food are genetically altered so that they have unnaturally large breasts. She said they are “so top-heavy that they can barely walk.”
Am I the only one that finds that funny???

No you aren’t. I find it hilarious. MOST of the people who argue against hunting and wearing furs are people who don’t think twice about buying a leather handbag.
What the old joke? People protest against fur because it’s easier to go up against little old ladies in fur coats than against big and mean bikers in leather jackets. (or something like that)

Carol - ain’t that the truth….
But what about the oversized chicken breast?? lol

I think that we should not pick on poor Pamela. She got this thought in her head and she is not quite sure how it got there or what to do with it. She needs a 12 step program, don’t ya think????
As for the oversized chicken breast, I’m all for it. That is my favorite piece of chicken.

Speaking of unnaturally large breasts…isn’t Pamela the one that had her breast augmentation un-done at one time…but then later had it done again? I don’t know - just seems like I remember hearing that… maybe it was someone else.

Carol, I hadn’t thought about it - but you might be right. Now that you mention it, that sounds familiar.

Pamela Anderson suffers from the condition of her artificially enhanced breasts and corresponding circumfrence measurement being higher than her IQ. Typical hollywood liberal airhead. All they know is how to read other people’s lines (and in Anderson’s case that wasn’t a lot of heavy reading).
Their real lives lack any substance so they lend themselves to causes that they hope will give some meaning to their otherwise meaningless existence.
Even in their quixotic attempts at gravitas, they provide us with hours of mindless entertainment.
Great post!
