I think people simply preferred the words “guided” and “intelligent” to “unguided” and “mutation.” A different choice of words may have produced the opposite results.
Innocent Blood (1992, I believe). Sort-of a comedy starring Anne Parillaud as a good vampire who satisfies her blood lust by feeding on mobsters. Robert Loggia plays one of them. Not the best vampire movie, but not mentioned here yet, and worth a look.
Does anyone remember the Taco Bell lo-cal menu from about 15 years ago? They had to drop it because no one was ordering the items.
I remember that. I also remember that as soon as the "light" menu went bust, they introduced a bacon menu. Too bad that didn't last either...everything's better with bacon.
Imagine if half of the kids in a neighborhood made the effort to put on costumes and walk door-to-door collecting candy. The other half just sits on the side of the street. A group of older kids dressed like cops takes one third of all the candy from the dressed-up kids and redistributes it among the lazy ones, keeping some of the proceeds and beating up any costumed kid who refuses to “contribute” his “fair” share.
District Attorney Joseph D. Early Jr. assured the councilors it would be targeted primarily at the after-hours bar and nightclub crowds where there has been an outbreak of knife-related violence.
He emphasized that the police would have a lot of discretion in enforcing the law to assure that people arent wrongly caught up in its net.
Whoever believes this deserves to be stabbed repeatedly with a plastic spork...before sporks are made illegal.
I meant to add, “...except vegetarianism.” Years ago, I ate 13 different animals at a Chinese buffet in one sitting (including seafood). Once I lose the weight from that lunch, I will repeat! Maybe even wash it down with some beer!!
