Garbage or Food? Find the WMD


"SHIPPENSBURG, PA -- On April 19, after a day of teaching classes at Shippensburg University, I went out to my car and grabbed a box of old poetry manuscripts from the front seat of my little white Beetle, carried it across the street and put it next to the trashcan outside Wright Hall. The poems were from poetry contests I had been judging and the box was heavy. I had previously left my recycling boxes there and they were always picked up and taken away by the trash department.

A young man from ROTC was watching me as I got into my car and drove away."

So writes a Pennsylvania poetry prof who had the misfortune of being a Muslim.


It's a good thing we're keeping an eye on those dangerous manuscripts. After all, we could be spending our time worrying about tainted pet food. And tainted human food. All courtesy of our bottom line agribusiness and completely pussy whipped FDA.
