Our Three Lollipops
February 19th, 2008
Our Story
Enebreated off of cheap wine I woke up suddenly in a warm grassy meadow. I was nude, and suffering from what looked like third degree sunburn. Dazed and confused I started to trace back my day in search of answers. Why was I nude? What was I doing in this grassy meadow? And must of all what was I doing drinking this really bad wine, have I no taste? As I was scanning the deepest, darkest burroughs of my brain for answers I thought I had heard a faint noise in the background. Was someone watching me? Was someone FILMING ME! Thoughts of cameramen lurking in the woods surrounding me flooded my brain. Had I somehow become a part of some wired pornography ring that does all its shoots in grassy meadows? A sense of shame rushed over me, then I heard a voice. No, a chant. What the hell were they saying? They sounded like the midgets with orange faces from the Wizard of Oz that sing the lollipop song. The noise grew louder, clearer, until it hit me like a hangover. Vegthreads, vegthreads, vegthreads, they repeated it over and over again like an AC/DC song. Was this a sign, yes it must be I thought. I quickly threw on my polkadot underwear, grabbed my cheap bottle of wine, and ran home. Once there I quickly put on my Elvis Costello CD ,and started to build this site.
Ok so thats not really how vegthreads.org started, but its not far from the truth. Anyhow back to the story. Upon lighting inscents, and clipping my big toe nail I decided to put forward our three guiding lollipops…err our three guiding principles.
- No tricks, no gimmicks, just a kick butt blog.
- Build a community for vegans, tree huggers, and while wer’re at it hippies.
- Keep it fun, keep it simple. Wait is that two?
Please note porn stars are welcome as well.
I put my lollipop of approval upon this post
