Here is an idea - Biscuits Against AB1634

Biscuits Against AB1634

Just this week, the fans of the TV show "Jericho" were able to save their
show by showing just how popular it really is... they banded together, each
donating a small amount of their own money, to send 20 TONS of peanuts to
the CBS headquarters to voice their opposition to the cancellation of this
show. CBS listened, and just yesterday announced they will renew the series
for the fall (and politely asked them to stop sending the peanuts - LOL!).

Why couldn't the pet loving public do something similar to get the attention
of the Senate?

So... Biscuits Against AB1634 was born.

Dog biscuits... ever a popular symbol of this country's obsession with our
dogs. How about sending some to California State Senators with a tag
attached simply saying "Vote NO on AB1634". Think of the boxes and boxes we
could pester them with? The space we could take up? The annoyance of
receiving pounds and pounds of dog biscuits at your office.

There are a number of ways to do this... send your own biscuits with tags
attached. (Provided for print out on the website) Links to each State
Senator's website and address are available there also.

Or give a buck to Biscuits Against AB1634. We'll wrap them up all nice and
pretty with the tag, your name, and any comments you'd like included, then
box them in bulk and start sending!

Each dollar should cover the cost of one large biscuit, materials and
postage.

To further ... poke fun at ... this absurd bill, we'll be sending California
Natural Health Bars... we've asked for support from Natura, but haven't
gotten a response yet. Regardless, we've got plenty of biscuits and are
ready to start shipping on Monday!

California State Senate Members and Addresses Why are we sending dog
biscuits?
Go to NutsOnline to see how the fans of the TV show "Jericho" convinced
CBS to add it back to the fall line-up after they had already cancelled the
series! If they can use peanuts, we can use dog biscuits!

Actually this will probably only p!$$ off the legislators. Polite calls, faxes, emails and letters work best.
