Dave Attell has a scheduling conflict but hopes to make it. We'll know for sure in mid-March.
Will Franken shows "manic brilliance" according to The NY Daily News, and the Times accuses him of possessing an "erudite wit."

We are lucky and thrilled to have some of the top celebrity comedians as supporters, generously donating their time to entertain New York-area residents!

This benefit will help the farm get through the expensive (and cold!) winter. The critters can't graze in the snow, and rising gas prices have pushed the cost of hay and straw to an all-time high. Animals are more prone to getting respiratory conditions and sore joints in the cold air, and our vet bills soar.

So join us on Monday, March 24th at 8pm at the Gotham Comedy Club in NYC, which is graciously hosting the event. (USA Today calls it "one of the 10 best places to see comedy in the country.")

$50 General Admission

$100 VIP Reserved Seating

$60 General Admission at the door the day of the event

143 Million Pounds of Beef Recalled in Response to Undercover Video

A harrowing videotape investigation by the Humane Society (HSUS.org) documenting abuse of dairy cows headed to slaughter prompted the USDA to conduct the largest meat recall in US history. Watch it here.

These few dozen cows captured on tape represent an unmeasurably small portion of the 10 billion farm animals slaughtered every year, year after year, in the US alone. Can you imagine the public reaction if there were cameras in every slaughterhouse?

Recalling meat is a slap on the wrist to the giant conglomerates that run these factories. Rather than treat animals better, they will likely tighten security and screen new employees more thoroughly.

The easiest way to put a stop to this is by thinking twice about what you put at the end of your fork. If you cut animals and their products out of your diet just one day a week that translates to 14 animals a year spared. If a family of four abstains one day a week, that's over 50 spared.

Naturally, we encourage you to enjoy the amazing health benefits of a veggie diet 365 a year. Visit our recipe page for some of our faves.

Please also keep up with the pending legislation to protect "downed" animals here or here.
