    Then it appears to me -from your post - you've already answered your own previous post. And ....NO! I don't know ya...at all. Think I would like to - however. What I offer is only advice (fROM my STANDPOINT). Why the defensiveness? Rhetorical question. I understand. More than you probably "get!" You sound like a very good person. DO NOT be pissed at me- as that was NEVER my intention. PM me. I certainly don't hate you. You will only find a friend.


    Open your mind....begin with what you put in your mouth...etc...

    a bit too preachy is all

    I happen to be very serious about what I eat (although not as disciplined as Id like-but thats true for most)

    Im not pissed at all. No worries. My first post was toungue in cheek regarding the ole texas cliche, and i was puzzled as to how you turned that into an eating thing. Tis all.

    :)

    EDIT: People I was joking about it!!!! I have no idea why they dont play there. Perhaps its the lone star beer. Discuss.

    :D

    It's truly people like you that make so many people want to be "ghosts."
    Sports, cars, income, the size of our individual homes and other complete SHIT, actually make you feel important. Do NOT dis(respect). I find it completely arrogant of you like to to think you fucking know everything
    (just ask ya). Now I'm pissed off. Was that your goal. Eat the cow or the pig - or the DOG you actually assigned a name to? If you can do that in good conscience.....then it demonstrates the kind of person you are. I don't appreciate your sarcasm. Neither do the animals.

    OK
    is this directed at me? Because I never said anything about income etc....and am once again puzzled as to how that fits in the conversation when all ive done is make some bad jokes about texas.

    How did I disrespect you? By saying you are preachy? Gimme a break.
    Your pissed? At what the world? I never said I know everything-but that you have no clue as to what I know. OK

    But you have contributed to enforcing a common stereotype-that peta/vegan types are whack jobs.

    EDIT sorry to the others for this silly diversion.

    I do see where, in other people's opinion - we remain "Whack Jobs. " Typical . However,,,,Thanks for responding .
    PETA remains relevent..... NOT everyone eats meat.

    I am not an ad for PETA - I truly remain a Pearl Jam Fan.

    And although I remain a completely dedicated PJ fan - and a member of PETA.... BOTH...remain relevent to me. Period. The End. F.O. If ya don't like it. But I still want Pearl Jam to play Texas.

    Thanks for trying to speak for me. Sorry - GET OFF OF MY ASS!
    I speak for myself. That's it. (Eat meat ---or don't eat meat others will decide for themselves) YOU live in TEXAS....this is a HUGE thing to ask. I understand. Give some thought to it,
    And this other person can F.O! I don't want to do this anymore. Argue with eveyone else. I just want peace. Even for the animals. Truly...that's it. :)

    I love Pearl Jam. I love meat. I hate that they haven't played here in 5 years. I don't care if people eat meat or not, it is their choice. I liked this thread more when it turned positive and hearing people's favorite spots in Austin. I was really bummed when ACL was announced and saw that all the rumors of them doing a TX swing were indeed false.

    PJ might not love TX but TX definitely loves Pearl Jam, or at least I do and there are obviously many like minded folks on this board. At the Stars game last night they played "Go" during one of the intermissions and then in the intermission between the 3rd period and OT they played the entire "WWS" from the IIC DVD and accompanied the clip with facts about the band. IT was pretty cool. At a few of the other games I have been to they play live versions of "TKAA" when the little kids play their little shootout game during intermissions. I guess whoever works the jumbo tron and music selection for the Stars must be quite the fan.

    Oh well, enough of that. I guess everyone can revert back to the discussion about Veganism now.

    I forgot about that. I was watching the Stars last night and I mentioned to my wife "Listen, they are playing "Go".

    I went to a Stars game earlier this year and when they had a mini-mite game during one of the intermissions. They played THe Kids are Alright during the mini-mite game. Only it wasn't The Who, it was Eddie. I thought that was tremendously cool that whoever was running the music hunted that boot down just to play that.

    Probably not even worth a reply. However....Clarify (for me....for the rest of us). It would be great to know what you are actually made of.

    Hello Speedy.

    And whomever posted this is a complete dick. This video doesn't even halfway decribe what PETA does. Perhaps you need to check out other websights. F. O.! Truly! You are so beyond retardation.

    Take your PETA vs. Meat Eaters argument to another thread please!

    Love the debate, but come on!

    This thread is about why Pearl Jam hates Texas. I choose to blame Jessica Simpson.

    By the way, I had spaghetti for dinner last night, with meat sauce.

    and I had an Austin's Pizza vegetated pizza.....but no one here really gives a crap so why bring it up? You have to know WHEN to bring it up and WHEN NOT to. Know what I mean? This thread is about PJ and Texas - not what you put in your mouth........ :)
