Vegetarian Neophyte Diaries

By Iggy (The Atomic Playboy)


This is the ongoing story of one man, me, trying to give up a staple of his everyday life: meat. I want to preface this section of the site by stating once and for all that I am not a militant vegetarian. In fact, I don't even consider myself a vegetarian. I have full tolerance for those who wish to continue eating meat. Hell, I may even buy you a burger if you catch me at the right time. I am not making a stand for animal rights. I am not protesting on behalf of the environment. Any excuse someone makes for desisting from meat consumption, I'm not making it. I just want to try it for a week, and if I make it that long, I wonder how long I can go.

This is also a nice way for me to update this site on a daily basis. I need to write more, to develop what little gift I may have had. Not to mention I feel like I'm writing something of significance, something that warrants attention, maybe even merit. This is not the pissy whining of a detached intellectual who can't understand his own world. This is that same detached pissy intellectual forging ahead in an attempt to make his own world and to define the parameters of his existence. OK, maybe that's a stretch, but it's pretty important to me.

Oh yeah, I name people, no holds barred. Now might be a good time to get a little closer to the author: you may get to see yourself immortalized in print. And don't piss me off, either, because I'm calling it like I see it.
