tofu vegetarian news ILVTOFU
A very kind woman in Colorado was shocked to find out that staff at her Department of Motor Vehicles is basically a bunch of prudes. The story, which is all over the news, is that she wants to get a license plate to show her support for healthy, humane, environmentally-friendly eating.
She decided to go with "ILVTOFU" which seems simple enough, right? Nope! They rejected her pretty much for being inappropriate! Can you believe that?
As you can see in this television report, the DMV thought some people may misread I-LV-TOFU as I-LV-TO-F-U. See the difference?
I understand the difference, but it's still totally ridiculous news. Let the woman have her license plate, will you please?!
What do you think? Should she be allowed to get a license plate expressing her love of animal-friendly tofu?

Cheese: It's Grosser Than You Thought January 15, 2009

In an article titled "Cheese — it's grosser than you thought", the network documents the truly horrifying levels of "bacteria, stomach lining, pesticides, and pure fat" that comes with every pus-filled slice of cheese (excluding vegan cheese, obviously).
News articles like these are always great to send to friends and relatives though, who will likely be disgusted to see what they've been eating/drinking/spraying out the nose. "Hey Grandma, guess what?!?" :)
