Proof it's the End of the World

"If you want to know what God thinks of money, just look at the people He gave it to." --Dorothy Parker

"Monsanto should not have to vouchsafe the safety of biotech food. Our interest is in selling as much of it as possible. Assuring its safety is the FDA's job."* --Phil Angell, Monsanto Director of
corporate communications, 1998


Not to be counted in the 25-word limit, an Appendix:

*Monsanto's influence in the current government extends to all three branches: Justice Clarence Thomas, Missouri Asst. AG, 1974-77; Monsanto attorney, 1977-79; Leg. Asst. to Sen. Danforth, 1979-81; Reagan admin. thereafter until appt. to the Supreme Court by Bush Sr., able to push for Bush Jr.'s election in 2000.
Sen. John Danforth, Missouri AG, 1969-76, U.S. Senate 1976-95, succeeded by retiring U.S. AG John Ashcroft, Gov. of Missouri 1985-93, U.S. Senate until his defeat (despite heavy Monsanto campaign contributions) by a dead man in 2000. Rejected by his own constituency, Ashcroft nevertheless put in charge of the execution of federal justice 2000-04.
Secy of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, former president of Searle Pharmaceuticals, now a division of Monsanto; Rumsfeld is said to have earned $12 mil. from the sale of Searle to Monsanto. Rumsfeld served in both the Nixon and Ford administrations.
Secy of Agric. Ann Veneman, Bd. of Directors of Calgene Pharmaceuticals, a Monsanto affiliate.

(Most Iraqi farmers do what ancient cultures have always done: save seeds, a practice that nevertheless undercuts the genetically-engineered seed industry, of which Monsanto is the leading company. A new law in Iraq will outlaw seed saving and force the farmers to buy engineered grain.)

(Controversial Monsanto products include biotech wheat, aspartame (NutraSweet), saccharin, Agent Orange, PCBs, and bovine growth hormone.)

Proof it's the End of the World

A classic.

"I'm from the government and I'm here to help." said by many a bureaucrat, with no disrespect meant to any bureaucrats reading this.

Proof it's the End of the World

In another era, it would have been a pleasant social gathering in a place of assignation.

Nowadays, by the sound of the names of the available goddesses, it would be a kegger in a cathouse.

But that is too many words.
 
Proof it's the End of the World

A friend of mine went to a place of assignation, suddenly a bullet hole appeared in his fore head and he fell down dead. Those folks that make up the nation of assig sure are unfriendly.
