PETH

As Roy Horn, of Siegfried & Roy, continues to recover from injuries sustained in a tiger attack on Friday night, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals faxed a letter yesterday to Horn’s hospital room expressing the group’s hope that he make a full recovery but urged the duo to retire their animals and build a sanctuary.”

To paraphrase PETA’s “get well” card: “We’re sorry you got hurt, but you know you really deserved it”….

So where is “People for the Ethical Treatment of Humans” (PETH)? Well I suppose humans are technically “animals” anyway (in the sense of being in the animal kingdom)…. And I guess “ethical” doesn’t necessarily mean “nice”?
