Not a headline you see every day.....

I don't care what other people eat as long as it isn't people.
I know, I know, some consider any living thing, especially animals,
to be the same as a person. Oh shut up, Roush. This could go on forever.

Yes, most do draw the line at cannibalism....but have you tried that new Soylent Green yet?

Is this new Soylent Green different from the old Soylent Green.

I'll probably be some Soylent Green.
I remember when I first saw the movie. It was in a small college town and the audience reaction was surprising.
Many left the theatre in disgust when the source of Soylent Green was revealed. No internet at that time but
there were newspaper reviews that gave it away but I guess many students did not read papers.
I had taught thirteen years and was doing my MM. I wasn't a kid but was often asked for my draft card when
I went to a bar especially if I was with college students.

I am glad I do not have a child of school age today. My four are between 61 and 53. As tough as we thought
it was to raise them. It seems to be a lot harder for my grand and great-grandchildren to make it now.
Not just mine, many school age kids are really messed up. This includes college age also. My opinion.

Despite being a somewhat low budget appearing movies, it had a very interesting cast and a good story (Harry Harrison story...) to tell back in 73.

I am glad that mine managed to make it through and escape out the other end w/o incurring too much trauma. The fine art and profession of teaching has deteriorated sadly - plenty of blame to lay at many feet. We are not competitive anymore and are only now beginning to face that fact and what that means for the future.

I'd like the ringing to stop, however. But I guess that doesn't make me unique in America, huh.

Not at all. Main land line runs through an answering machine with the volume at zero. If it's important or real, people leave a message; otherwise I periodically use the delete button (just like e-mail...).

Annoyingly, somehow though my cell # got on some list and I got sent maybe 20 fax messages that filled up my voice mail box....if I get another, I'm going to start sending faxes back...maybe 50-100 page long ones all day long.......

Sounds like a worthwhile dedication. Somebody, somehow, has to be able to get back at them. They ravage with total impunity. I still wish I could find out where they park their cars. I'd travel worldwide for that opportunity to say, "Howdee! Beeyatch," in my own special way.
(Am I committing hyperbole again?? hhmmmm?

"Sausage-wielding." I don't think I ever heard that expression previously. Yet, it does stay with you. I like it. Into the journal it goes, for future possible use.

P.S. I'm trying to picture it modeled on a train layout. Hhhmmmmm......

It says, "A group described by witnesses as far right extremists threw meat into patrons vegan dinners and started a brawl"

How do they know it was far right extremist. How do they tell the difference between far right extremist and far left extremist. Maybe the far right throws meat and the far left just throws BS.

Nah. You know better than that - the Left throws veggies.
