col, better 'skin diving' than 'growling at the badger'

"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?
And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labour or spin. Yet I tell you not even Solomon in all his splendour was dressed like one of these."
Matthew 6.25.

Hey - what about recycling? Why ditch Beaver at a landfill?

Uses: Spin it, knit it, leave it out for the birds, compost it, fill for Fido's mattress - Oh, so many uses for ones discarded pelt.

And how inventive is that? A brand new cottage industry!

The bigger the bush, the bigger the profits!

And it's organic!

Viva la muff!

What a wonderful opportunity for salacious geopolitical allegory!

Personally, I'd rather wander blissfully through a Tasmanian forest than scour a newly denuded Brazilian jungle... ;)

More seriously, I think it's just another expression of the quest for eternal youth by the self-obsessed. And while I'm an enthusiastic lover of female genitalia, I'm less than aroused by pornographic depictions of shaved twats.

Well i must be really bent as i dont mind either way wether its waxed with l`oreals finest and latest rip off product(maybe leaving a ting "landing strip or left to grow and i mean left to grow much like the back that has been ripped off a Cocker Spaniel and glued on the old mon`s...ooh lah lah!

Hmmmm back to the wax,i wonder how or what animals are used as the crash test dummies in the pursuit of a better wax? Maybe you animal libbers out there should think about this...not all of you have mohair stockings surely.

what's next - maybe evolution would eliminate "unncessary" parts of the human body, although not precipitated by changes in environmental factors, but by money
