International Poop for Peace Day: April 18

Today I received this ass-random email:
---------------------------------
APRIL 18, 2008: POOP FOR PEACE DAY
---------------------------------

(You're receiving this email because you signed up for the Poop For Peace Day mailing list. If this is a mistake, just click the link at the bottom. Don't worry, I'm not a spammer.)

This April, just like every April, the world will come together to poop for peace. On April 18, with a grunt and a prayer, we will once again spread the gospel of fundamental oneness by embracing our universal number twoness.

As always, the event is to be promoted entirely by the grassroots (or assroots, or grossroots, or what have you). So:

**IF YOU HAVE A BLOG, OR A WEBSITE, OR A MYSPACE PAGE:**
Please post a Poop For Peace Day banner! (Follow the link below.) Make sure you email me when you post it so I can link back to you on the Poop For Peace Day homepage.

I'll send more information as time draws near. In the meantime, tell your friends, post banners on your sites, download and print posters, and get ready to poop for peace. Find everything you need here: http://www.poopreport.com/Peace.

Yours in brown utopia,

What? Who signed me up for this shit? Who is Dave Praeger? What is this organization?

Desperately searching for answers, I investigated the site and discovered this choice quote:
Under the influence of Taco Bell, there is no Christian or Muslim or Jew. There are only human bodies, reacting to the complications of digestion in the same predictable and malodorous ways. Poop wields supreme power over our bodies -- when poop calls, you answer, or you face the consequences. Poop is our cruel tyrant, our fickle deity, our omnipotent oppressor -- it is a force to which every human being has no choice but to submit.

And recognizing this is the first step toward world peace.

Sadly, what these people don't realize is that I'm a poop superhero - I have a BM maybe once every three days (less if avoid salads). That said, I think this is a cause I can get behind. Even with the unnecessary slam on Taco Bell.

I hereby pledge to have a BM on April 18, in solidarity with humans and various animals across the world. You should do the same.
