Glendora Vegetarian Club
Folks, Glendora would like to see you live until 91 years old without medicine or doctors. I think you might if you go vegan. We wish you grace and peace.
Last night the Glendora Vegetarian Club enjoyed salubrious eating at the new vegan restaurant, Berben and Wolff, located at 156 Fourth St. in Troy. Meet us there the last Wednesday of October.
Our vegan textbook Vegan Living sends you a message: “When you become aware that there is much needless animal suffering going on in the world and you become determined that you will no longer contribute to it, you have already taken the first step in bringing your compassion to the next level.” We have vegan starter kits. Would you like one? If so, contact Glendora at achatwithglendora@nullgmail.com.
The Glendora Vegetarian Club continues on CBS Channel 6 the first and third weeks
of every month during the 6:30 p.m. news to radiate the glory of veganism for people, animals and the earth. When all is said and done, the only thing that really matters is how you treat others. Animals are others.
Glendora’s Jokes:
1. If they have cars that talk and if they have bathroom scales that talk, why can’t they invent a washing machine that can talk and tell you what it did with the other sock.
2. A couple had a car that broke down so often her dad bought them the perfect vehicle: a tow truck.
3. Teenagers brighten up a home; they never turn out the lights.
4. Why was the baby shoe crying? His mother was a sneak and his daddy was a loafer.
5. The co-ed was asked, “What are your favorite sports?”
She answered, “The ones who spend their money and go home early.”
