Mabel

"So they're into cloning humans
now," said Dave when he sat down at
the table the other morning. "So who
decides who's going to get cloned -
just the rich people who can afford to
pay to clone themselves?"
"What a dreadful thought: a
couple of
dozen Conrad
Blacks walk-
ing around,"
said Cliff
Murray.
"I don't
know, at least
he'd have
enough money
that all of his
clones would
be million-
aires," said
George. "They
wouldn't be
on welfare like
a lot of those people who are
breeding like rabbits."
"I don't know, I think they should
give it all up as a bad idea," said
Molly Whiteside as the delivered
Cliff's bacon and eggs. "We've got
too much mass production in the
world already."
"Oh, I could use a mass-produced
Michele Pfeiffer clone under my tree
for Christmas," said Dave.
"Yeh but they don't come all
grown up," Cliff reminded him.
"You'd be getting a baby."
"Yeh, you play with that toy and
you'd get charged with child
molestation." said Molly.
"I guess that's right - you still
have the messy part of raising the
kid, don't you," said Dave.
"And you miss out on the fun of
starting it," said Cliff. "I mean all
that stuff in a petri dish - I just
don't get it."
"It's all those geeks from science
class who get a kick out of it," said
George.
"Oh.I remember a few of those
science geeks who at least thought
they'd like to experiment the good
old-fashioned way," said Molly. "You
had to watch them when you were
bending over the Bunsen burner."
"I know how they feel," said Dave
fondly as he watched Molly bend
over to wipe the next table. She
The world's
problems are
soloed daily
'round the table
at MabeI's
looked around, saw the object of his
eye, straightened up and threw him a
hard look, then quickly disappeared
into the kitchen.
"Hey Molly, my coffee's cold,"
he called out.
"Warm it up yourself Mr.
Hotstuff," she called.
"One thing I hope they don't
clone is any more of those weirdos
from PETA," said George. "Did you
see those guys in London in those
silly cow costumes? Talk about
cruelty to animals!"
"How do those guys get away
with those lies?" said Cliff. "I mean
saying dairy products give you
pimples and gas. I don't know too
many teenagers who get pimples
because of too much milk - more
likely from too much Coke."
"And if you're worried about gas,
I think a vegetarian should know you
get a lot more gas from salad than
from cheese," said Dave.
"That's why those PETA people
are such windbags," said George.
"Oh well, with another round of
WTO talks coming up it's probably
only a matter of time before we don't
have a dairy industry here for them to
protest," said Cliff.
"Then the PETA folks can get
people to give donations so they can
go down to New Zealand to protest
cruelty to dairy cows," said George.
"In the middle of winter, no
doubt," said Dave.
"Well you sure can't afford to go
south to Florida, not with the Can-
adian dollar the way it is," said
George.
"Hey don't knock the dollar when
it's down," said Cliff. "It's the only
thing that makes the price of corn
and soybeans manageable."
"I don't feel sorry for anybody
having to convert bucks for a trip
south," said Dave. "I figure if you
can afford to go south, you can
afford the exchange rate. Otherwise
you can stay here and suffer with the
rest of us."
"Except some of us don't seem to
suffer as much as others," said Cliff
looking out at George's expensive
clubcab in the parking lot.
"Being stuck with you guys all
winter is suffering enough," said
George as he got up to leave.0
