Cow People

Lyric of the Day: "I am John the Fisherman."

Well, apparently modern medicine has advanced so far as to "create" hybrid embryos from human skin cells and cow eggs. These fancy mixes are 99.9% human. Of course, scientists want to use the stem cells that are created after an electric shock is administered to the cow egg cell containing human DNA in order to begin cell division.

I ask, how long before this technology falls into the wrong hands? You know it's bound to happen. Somehow the Russians and Chinese found their way into space.

How do you respond to a child asking, "Why does Auntie Mae eat all the mashed potatoes and green beans at Thanksgiving?"

I'll tell you how. You say, "My dear child, because Auntie Mae has four stomachs."
