Bikini-Clad Beauties to Converge on U.S. Courthouse as Barry Bonds Faces Steroid-Related Charges

PETA, Bonds, steroids, nudity...I’m sure Pete Rose, Hitler and Ring Dings will be arriving shortly.

Wearing nothing but lettuce-leaf bikinis and holding signs that read, “Meat Contains Drugs--Go Vegetarian,” a pair of sexy PETA Lettuce Ladies will hand out free faux-turkey sandwiches outside the federal courthouse in San Francisco on Friday as Barry Bonds answers to charges of perjury and obstruction of justice stemming from an investigation of steroid use in Major League Baseball.

..."The growth-promoting drugs given to chickens make them grow faster than Barry Bonds’ hat size,” says PETA Vice President Bruce Friedrich. “The best way to keep dangerous antibiotics, hormones, and other toxic chemicals out of your body--and help animals at the same time--is to go vegetarian.”

The meat company should respond by having some girls dressed only in bacon handing out veal parmesan sandwiches.

PETA should come out in support of the Beverley Hillbillies diet; there's nothing ethical about letting roadkill go to waste.

Women with lettuce on their tits. Who hasn't seen that. This is California. San Fransisco no less. Lettuce on the tits .... pffffttt.

Sushi on tits is probably more common though. Now that would be a yawner.

Given the typical PETA recruit, the more important questions are,

1) Has anybody seen their tits?
2) How could you tell?

Good job, PETA: At least they have a sense of humor.

Seems like they're treating it pretty well.

Behold!


Lisa the Lettuce Lady looks too much like Jim Bouton for me to be interested in her.

As for the PETA demonstration, I will summon Vincent the Vegetable Vampire to disrupt it.
