Saleswoman: Don't miss our end-of-February FINAL REDUCTION in the fur salon!! Cathy: Weren't we already reduced enough this year? Saleswoman: "We"? Cathy: As a species. Every time someone tossed on a fur collar "just for fun", it reduced us as a caring species. Every designer who promised to use only fake fur, and then launched a line of real fur coats, reduced us a little more...All the models and movie stars who took the anti-fur pledge, and then wore fur all year, reduced us more...Every article that referred to animal rights workers as "radicals" and mink sandals as "must-haves", reduced us more...what's left to reduce?? Saleswoman: Plenty! We're taking 20% off all previous reductions to make room for next year's furs! Cathy: Fur, now 70% off. Humans, 100% off.
We are cheated of yet another week of no Sunday comic. I want my money back…wait!…no money involved. Never mind.
