  Genetic Engineering      

What do you reckon about this genetic engineering thingy? 

 

 

 I like to know what I am eating and I am not happy with it at all.

 

 

You guys think we won't notice?  

 

 

Try shoving a punnet of tomatoes to the back of the fridge for a month, pulling them out, and finding them completely unmarked and looking just the way they did when they went in. 

 

 

No, guys! If it's not good enough for the fungus, it's not good enough for me! 

 

 

So, it's into the bin with them, check out the next purchases to make sure that they have the healthy beginnings of imperfections on them, shove them in the fridge for a month, and THEN chuck them out. 

 

 

If you have too much spare time on your hands why not take stock of the fate of previously modified goods which have turned out less than satisfactorily. Unicorns, - when did you last see one? Winged horses? The bookies odds on Pegasus in the 3:30 don't bear thinking about. Name one benefit bestowed on Ireland by a four-leafed clover. 

 

 

Kindly consider turning your efforts towards more traditional style inventiveness as there are still plenty of things needing realization, - Phillips-headed table knives for emergency use in screws that come loose in the kitchen. (I currently own a complete set of buzz-ended table knives), water resistant cigarettes so that I can smoke in the shower, self-washing cars, dishwasher-proof handguns, wake-up pills for people who like their sleep, - a variety of durations would be required here, - 7 hour, 8 hour, through to 17 hour, 18 hour. Why should insomniacs be the only ones catered for? 

 

 

If you really feel compelled to interfere with genes, finding a way to remove the one for ambisinistrousness would enable my feet to keep the promises I've made to myself regarding certain terpsichorean funeral ceremonies. 

 

 

Plenty out there to keep you busy!
