Jesus Vs Santa

Parents Upset Over Jesus Vs. Santa Handout

School Board Investigating Links On Teacher's Class Web Page

IRASBURG, Vt. -- Parents in Irasburg, Vt., said a teacher crossed the line between church and state when he gave out a handout entitled, "Why Jesus is Better than Santa Claus."

Parents also said that the handout is reflective of a pattern of religious-themed material being given by Irasburg Village School language arts teacher Wally Rogers. FULL STORY HERE

C4NN SAYS:

Well we here at the network did some simple search engine work and found the article Wally Rogers handed out. let's take a look shall we?

Why Jesus is Better Than Santa Claus

Santa lives at the North Pole, Jesus is everywhere.

That sounds...kinda creepy...I dunno how I feel about that.

(1 Point Santa)

Santa rides on a sleigh, Jesus rides on the wind and walks on the water.

COOL! I'm a sucker for magic tricks.

(1 point Jesus)

Santa fills your stocking with goodies, Jesus supplies all your needs.

I was about to award Jesus this one, but then I got to thinking. Jesus never brought me a glow in the dark micro-machines race track OR a super Nintendo.

(1 Point Santa)

Santa comes down your chimney uninvited, Jesus stands at your door and knocks, and then enters when invited.

...um I'm pretty sure I've never once said Santa can't come in my house. Also, this makes Jesus sound like he lives by the Vampire code.

(1 Point Santa)

Santa’s visitation line is long, Jesus is as close as the mention of His name.

...Well...I may have pictures with Santa...but I do hate lineups...

(1 Point Jesus)

Santa lets you sit on his lap, Jesus lets you rest in His arms.

This point confuses me and I can't decide why either one is better.

(draw)

Santa doesn’t know your name, all he says is “Hello, little boy/girl. What’s your name?” Jesus knew your name before you did, and your address, your history and your future.

That's some more David Blaine shit right there!

(1 Point Jesus)

Santa has a belly like a bowl full of jelly, Jesus has a heart full of love.

WOAH! WOAAAAH CHEAP SHOT JESUS!

(Deduct 1 Point Jesus)

Santa says: “Ho, ho ho”. Jesus offers health, help and hope.

Well I never see Santa with any of these girls he's always talking about, so I have to assume Jesus has my back on this one.

(1 point Jesus)

Santa says: “You better not cry”. Jesus says: “Cast all your cares upon Me because I care for you”.

Jesus sounds emo.

(1 point Santa)

Santa and his helpers make toys. Jesus makes life new, mends wounded hearts, broken homes, and builds mansions.

Jesus Builds Mansions? Wheres Mine?! Mends Broken Homes?! I know a few starving kids in Africa that must be on the waiting list...

(1 Point Santa)

Santa may make you chuckle. Jesus gives you joy that is your strength.

What? Jesus has never once told me a good joke. As a matter of fact, every time I go to one of his plays it's super serious and people die and shit. What a buzz kill. Santa gives me Candy Canes when I visit him.

(1 point Santa)

Santa is a jolly ole’ elf. Jesus is the King of Kings.

Snap. Respect.

(1 Point Jesus)

Santa gives you gifts under a tree. Jesus gave us the gift of His life on a tree.

Santa's gifts are a lot less violent...and a lot more tangible...how do you wrap Jesus' gift

(1 Point Santa)

So the final verdict is....

Santa 6 : Jesus 4.

So there you have it. C4NN stacks this bout 6:4 Santa. We'll update you as the story unfolds.

Education: The Movie - Uncut & Unrated Special DVD Box Set

LUTHER, Okla. -- A local father has expressed concern over allegations that classes at his son's school have turned into Movie Appreciation 101.

When Justin -- who asked not to be identified -- started asking his son for a list of lessons learned at Luther High School, his ninth-grader rattled off a list of new releases.

"'The Simpsons Movie' was on there, which I whole-heartedly disapprove of," Justin said Justin's son told him he had watched about 46 hours of movies in various classes since October. Several of the movies were rated R, he said. FULL STORY HERE

C4NN SAYS:

First off I hope “Justin” is aware that his kid is officially disowned from every social ring imaginable in his school. Imagine being the kid who’s Dad put the kibosh on movie time and demanded more homework?

I also love how he didn’t want his real name used, but you can WATCH him give his interview if you click the link above. Because I’m positive his house will remain un-egged now that all the neighbourhood kids are saying “Damn, who is that guy?! If only I knew his REAL name, then I could recognize him!” Sneaky, but if your going to use a fake interview name at least make it a cool one...

...So this guy "Optimus Prime" is upset his kid’s watching too many video’s at school, and thinks it’s having some detrimental impact on his kids ability to integrate into the REAL world.

Well let me say this "Optimus Prime", when was the last time your day-to-day life required you answer that really tough Oklahoma history question or bust out your advanced algebra? Never.

And you want your kid to know about literature and life skills? What do you think movies are?! How can you not see the educational value in every single one of the movies that was apparently shown? So I’ll tell you what. I’ll not only run through the list, but I will explain its educational value.

Saving Private Ryan: History – World War 2

Spider Man 3: Life Skills and Lessons – “With great power comes great responsibility” – Ben Parker

The Mummy: History – Egyptian culture

The Simpsons Movie: Politics / Social Economics – Springfield is a stereotype of a typical North American middle class city.

Dodgeball: Physical Education – Dodgeball, teamwork, leadership, determination.

Home Alone 3: Detention Hall - This was obviously used to punish children in detention as this movie sucks ass.

Robin Hood, Men In Tights: English Literature - Medieval History / period peice

The Sandlot: Life Skills - Overcoming diversity, teamwork, friendship

Men In Black: Life Skills - Expect the unexpected, read between the lines, and always be prepared.

Seabiscuit: Life Skills - Don’t judge a book by its cover, and don’t write off the underdog

The Tuxedo: Life Skills - Every man should have a nice suit.

Cinderella Man: History – The depression & overcoming hardships

Rocky: Physical Education – Perseverance, determination and dedication.

Air Force One: Social Studies - Structure of American Government

Napoleon Dynamite: Exactly the same as "The Sand Lot" and it's benefits. But not a shitty movie.

Gridiron Gang: Social Studies: Your tax money helps convicts form football leagues.

Dr. Doolittle: Life Skills: If you find out you can talk to animals, a veterinarian would be a wise career choice to consider.

Remember The Titans: See the sandlot, but think of it as the love child of the OC and football.

Radio: Come on. I don’t even have to justify this one.

Beowulf: English – Old books make great new movies. And instead of reading a story you can SEE it unfold before your very eyes in 3D and hear it Dolby Digital. And this leads me to think your only bitching about all of this cause you didn’t get this as a kid and had to READ about it.

So I don’t see why you’d be worried about the lack of life skills your kid is learning. If you ask me, he seems pretty damn ready for life. Be confident in your child’s school (especially if it's public) and just let the teachers do their job. If you could just understand that one simple thing, then maybe one day it could be your son or daughter on the stage, in the spot light and making a difference. Like this girl.

America Isn't Fat It's Big Boned...But why and who can we blame?

C4NN Says:

Countless studies have been done to solve why America, the worlds super power, is home to the fattest population on the planet. And no matter what your opinion is on the subject, I can find a study to counter it. And not just any study, I'm talking expensive fancy graphs and pie charts (And like I said before, racing stripes makes cars go faster...well graphs and pie charts make your data valid and FACTUAL. Extra points for semi-gloss paper and binding.)

So let's explore some of these studies together. I'll let you know what I think and I encourage you to come to your own conclusions about this.

There are two main points you see floating around cyberspace that try to point the blame at WHY people are getting so fat, and they kinda go hand in hand.

1) Healthy food is getting more expensive.

This is a pretty reasonable argument right? I mean is Billy Bob going to buy that $12.00 mini crate of strawberries which will last him a day. Or 3 boxes of pop-tarts that will last him a week (and get him a free blockbuster rental!)

2) Youth activities are too expensive and unaccessible.

So little Timmy wants to sign up for hockey. Perfect! He has fun, stays active, and can maybe hit the NHL one day and support his lazy ass hopeful dad! Sign 'em up!

That will be a $500 registration fee, and he'll need $150 skates, $200 in pads, $100-200 helmet to protect his face or else your gonna be paying for his dental work, a nice stick which runs around $100-$200. You have to wake up at the ass crack of dawn for practice, drive there, sit in a cold rink till the little punk is done and all of that equipment you bought he'll out grow every season till he's about 17.

Or you can spend $400 on an xbox and a game. That'll shut em up, and here's a bag of Doritos, No you can't have strawberries! They are expensive.

Both of these arguments seem pretty logical right? Well not according to this study...

Lack of food isn’t to blame for poor kids’ obesity
Study challenges idea that low-income children don’t get adequate nutrition

In a nutshell, the study says that they followed kids from about 1999-2003 and couldn't find any information that proved this. The study was done by Iowa State University.

Okay...so if they just disproved the two most common causes for the booming obesity problem, then what is causing this epidemic?

Unpopular high school girls gain more weight
Teens view of social status has health consequences, study finds.

A new study of more than 4,000 girls finds that people who are unpopular are 60% more likely to gain weight. (in paticular girls)

And to make things worse, there is this study.

Many parents of fat kids in denial, study finds.
43 percent told researchers their obese child was ‘about the right weight’

Awesome, so now you have depressed fat kids getting a pat on the back from their naive parents who refuse to admit their child might be headed towards a severe weight problem. And admitting you have a problem is always step one.

I don't care if your on a 12 step program for drinking or admitting you need to sign up for a step-class to tone your fat ass. You need to know there is a problem before you can solve it.

Wait a minuet...I can see where they are going with all these studies. It all adds up!

Unpopular girls gain weight right?

Well the United States have always been unpopular. But just think about how much worse it's gotten since 9-11. They went on a ridiculous easter egg hunt looking for weapons of mass destruction, pissing off a lot of countries; Thus, making them super unpopular and super fat.

And JUST like the study about parents denying they have a problem, you certainly won't see Bush admitting things have gone just a TAD sour in the middle east and MAYBE they should leave. And just MAYBE they shouldn't have gone in the first place.

So in conclusion I blame America's weight problem on weapons of mass destruction, terrorists, 9-11, and the subsequent high gas prices. How can I afford to drive to the gym in my SUV? Plus with all this global warming it's too hot to go out and exercise. Thank god...at least now the USA now knows none of this is their fault.

American Gladiators Returns: Bigger, Badder & More Christian?

The triumphant return of a television relic. (But with strong Christian under tones???)

C4NN: What do NBC's American Gladiators and Christianity have in common? Apparently a lot more then you'd think according to this guy.

"American Gladiators could definitely be a platform to spread Christianity." Out in the seats of Gladiator Arena, his supporters (Andy, a recent contestant who is an ordained minister) wore T-shirts reading "REV IT UP." Jesus Christ.

Source MSN Slate News

C4NN Says:

I'm going to harness all of my will power and ignore the part about "REV IT UP. JESUS CHRIST" and get right to the point.

Lets start off with a direct excerpt from the new American Gladiators website.

"American Gladiators celebrates the everyday, true American heroes -- weekend warriors who excel and take pride in their physical fitness. These contestants will go up against the show's gladiators -- charismatic and eclectic warriors -- in the ultimate David & Goliath battle"

And to think this whole time I thought NBC was using a random biblical comparison. Apparently not. Well, If everything NBC says is so literal then this leads me to believe that Chuck Norris really did once win a game of Connect Four in 3 moves. And leads me to another conclusion...

If American Gladiators is a platform to spread Christianity...

And American Gladiators is sponsored by Subway....then does that mean....

...Not that I'm saying religion is a profitable business or anything. Also with the TV show sporting events such as "The Eliminator" it really is easy to see how this show is able to spread such a wholesome Christian message.

THE ELIMINATOR: "This is the ultimate timed obstacle course with fire and water. Contenders ascend and dive off of a 10-foot platform, swim beneath a flaming surface and climb a cargo net to pedal cranks high above ground. The contenders then pedal to a beam they must traverse across, then leap off and sprint up the Pyramid to a giant zip line that drops them at the reverse escalator. At the top of the reverse escalator they race again to crash through the finish line."

I mean with a description like that, you can literally just close your eyes and picture Moses crossing the desert. Or Bruce Willis in your favorite Die Hard. Same deal....right?

Yeah, maybe if the Bible was produced by Michael Bay.

No need to get upset, but we kinda shot a missile into your house

Sorry, we just flew a missile into your house :(

A homeowner in Russia got a fun surprise, when the Russian military accidentally fired a missile into his house.

Russia's military offered compensation to him on Thursday, after the missile veered off course during a training exercise. The fact that is was described as a 'small rocket' is presumably a relief to the man. FULL STORY HERE


C4NN Says:

Where to begin?! Well for starters thank god it was only a "Small Rocket," Right?....WHAT THE HECK IS A SMALL ROCKET?! You know what I consider a small rocket?

SMALL Rockets as defined by C4NN

Those are small rockets; However, we can assume the term "Small Rocket" obviously does not imply the Russian government had a bottle rocket fight in the park that got out of hand and mothers had to be called. No. Let me use this chart to explain what SMALL ROCKET means when the government says one just hit your house.

A SMALL rocket appears to be shorter then 2 meters in length.

Oh, so small rocket means LESS then 2 meters? Pfft. wussy, suck it up. why is this even news?.....ARE YOU JOKING?!

I'm pretty sure anything thats around a meter long, made of steel, with a pointed tip, falling from the sky at thousands of meters per second is going to suck when it collides with the roof of your house. Please note this is not even considering the fact that IT ALSO EXPLODES.

Now I can't believe I'm about to actually write this, but in terms of missiles hitting your house this guy got off easy. The damage was estimated to be 60,000 rubles ($2,510.62 CND - xe.com). and apparently the government has stated It will be paid to the home owner within in two days.

I don't know what's more shocking, the fact the governments press release pretty much said "Not to worry it was only a small rocket." Or the fact that this guy only got $2,500. People in BC get higher ICBC claims for fender benders and this guy had his roof impaled by a rogue missile! Wow. Too bad he wasn't home or near by when it happened, then at he could have faked whiplash and got some free Physio.

Virginia Declares War on Testicles

Va. lawmaker seeks ban on replica genitalia after girl spots rubber testicles on trailer hitch.


RICHMOND, Va. - It's one thing to dangle fuzzy dice from a rear view mirror, but decorating a trailer hitch with a large pair of rubber testicles might be a bit much in Virginia.

State Del. Lionel Spruill introduced a bill Tuesday to ban displaying replicas of human genitalia on vehicles, calling it a safety issue because it could distract other drivers. FULL STORY HERE



C4NN Says:

Before I get into this, it's Nice to see State lawmaker Lionel Spruill spending his time on things that matter. On a complete side note, In 2006 Virgina residents were graced with 21,568 Violent Crimes 189,406 Property Crimes, 399 Murders (Aww man, one more and they could have sent away for the Dubble Bubble beach ball!) 1,792 Rapes, 7,749 Robberies, 11,628 counts of aggravated assault, 31,913 cases of burglary, 142,679 of larceny theft and 14,814 vehicles stolen. So any way back to the nuts at hand.

For those of you that have no idea why Mr.Spruill is upset or what exactly bulls-balls(z),truck nuts(z), Blue Balls(z), Truck Balls(z) or Hitch Junk are, then allow me to explain.

This is pretty much the same beef some crotchety old people had with the fad of having Calvin stickers pissing all over things. Remember this guy?



Well if you don't know his name is Calvin. he's a character from the old comic strip Calvin and Hobbs (One of the few things in the paper I liked as a kid).

If you have never seen this logo before then keep your eyes peeled. Sometimes you find the odd person who still gets really excited by the fact that they can put ANY logo / picture under Calvin's piss stream to make a really bold meaningful statement to the world.

"Take that President Bush/Chevy/Ford/My least favorite sports team! You Can't tell me and my cartoon pee what to do!"

And as fun as that was in early 2000, 2008 brings us rubber replicas of testicles that can be hung from your trailer hitch (Finally, I can sleep at night now). However I would like to clear up one MAJOR misconception that most people have, including those who buy these things...

THEY ARE NOT REPLICA HUMAN TESTICLES!

They are "Bulls Balls". It's a Texan rodeo / cowboy thing that has been around for a while and just recently leaked into the city and suburban areas. Even still I'm sure some people still find it offensive but I thought I'd clear that up. They are not male genitals.

It should also be noted State Del. Lionel Spruill is no newbie when it comes to attempting a ban on things that old people who don't have social lives don't understand and thus are scared of. In 2005 (and this is 100% fact) He tried to ban baggy pants. No joke. He drafted a bill to ban pants that exposed your boxers/underwear. (which was shot down and never heard of again)

We have yet to find out what the verdict on the Hitch Junk case is going to be, but rest assured Mr. Spurill will do everything in his power to get 'deez nuts' out of drivers faces. He's even willing to go as far as brining a pair to house and was quoted saying

'I'm going to bring them out here and show them to you till they tell me to stop.'

Is that how he opposed baggy pants?! Just pulled them down till someone begged him to stop? Man, I gotta get some USA political debates on satellite. CPAC has to step up their game.

Lindsay Lohan Works in Morgue as Punishment

Lohan to work in morgue as punishment

The 21-year-old actress will soon be working at a morgue as part of her punishment for misdemeanor drunken driving, her attorney, Blair Berk, told a judge Thursday.

She has also spent two months in rehabilitation and has done some community service, Berk said at a hearing on her progress toward fulfilling the terms of her plea bargain. FULL STORY HERE

C4NN Says:

I won't say too much about Ms Lohan as I actually feel bad for her, Brittney and other teen dream pop stars who continue in a downward spiral of booze, paparazzi up skirt shots, rehab and other fun family activities.

It really is a shame watching someones life decompose right before your very eyes. Kinda like some sort of national geographic time-lapse shot.

I'm pretty confident when I say, if I saw today's Lindsay Lohan working in a morgue I wouldn't be able to tell if shes completing community service, or looking for space to rent there. She'd fit in great. LOOK AT HER. WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED?

Anyways, drunk driving isn't really a joking matter, but you know what is? this is a direct quote from the full article:

"Lohan was arrested twice last year on DUI charges and pleaded guilty in August to misdemeanor drunken driving and cocaine charges. She has already served 84 minutes in jail as part of the plea deal."

84 Minuets?! WOW. Maybe after the morgue she can travel to Detroit and talk to inner city kids about life behind bars. What kind of jail time is 84 Minuets? What did they do? Clamp open her eyes and make her watch "Mean Girls" on DVD? Cause that was also about 84 minuets of MY life I'll never get back.

Remember Girls, if you get drunk with the right people, take hard drugs, and drive your car that costs more then most people's homes WHILE doing all of the above... You develop this dirty, greasy, slimy pungent smelling film all over your body. It causes acne and it itches. BUT it repels North American legal systems and makes you be popular. Lindsay Lohan, Role model to pre-teen girls everywhere.

Will Smith is a Scientologist?!?!

From a Men's Vogue profile on Will Smith:

"I've studied Buddhism and Hinduism and I've studied Scientology through Tom. And nobody's saying anything different! Look, I use the Bible to explain the ideas of God, and life, and love, and relationships, and the life of Jesus Christ to teach my children how to defend their spirit. But in all of the experiences I've had with Tom [Cruise] and Scientology, like, 98 percent of the principles are identical to the principles of the Bible. The Bible says, Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. And you know, there's a Scientology principle: Do not create experiences for others that they cannot comfortably perceive." Smith would rather stroll many paths to enlightenment than commit to one high road. "The Bible talks about your spirit being immortal, that you were created for existence beyond your physical body. Well, that's no different from Scientology! I don't think that because the word someone uses for spirit is thetan that the definition becomes any different."

C4NN Says:

Well I just watched "I Am Legend" With Mr Smith (good movie) and now this. Fresh Prince, MIB (MIB II is debatable), Ali and...I'll even admit I liked Independence Day. I grew up THINKING Will Smith was the man because of fresh prince. The MAN.

Now after reading the news I have this bad taste in my mouth...similar to when you are given an after dinner mint at a B-Class restaurant.

You're all stoked for this minty after dinner delight. It's cool fresh taste is accented by a green stripe that runs down the middle (which is scientifically proven to make minty things taste more minty. Much like stripes make cars go faster)....You pop the candy in your mouth and...

WTF!!?!?!!!??!...

It's a piece of that god forsaken black licorice made from concentrated evil! UGH.

I really hope this is a rumor, as it should be noted he did state in December of 06 that while he had been kicking it old school with TC (Tom Cruise) he had no intention of joining Scientology.

If you don't know what Scientology is I've posted some links and videos below feel free to check 'em out.

Father* arrested for taping Packers jersey to son**

PORTAGE, Wis. (AP) - Upset that his 7-year-old son wouldn't wear a Green Bay Packers jersey during the team's playoff victory Saturday, a man restrained the boy for an hour with tape and taped the jersey onto him.

Mathew Kowald was cited for disorderly conduct in connection with the incident with his son at their home in Pardeeville, Wis., Lt. Wayne Smith of the Columbia County Sheriff's Department said. Pardeeville is about 30 miles north of Madison. Full Story Here

C4NN Says:

I really don't think this is what mom meant when she told Mr. Kowald he had to do something to bond with his son. Sports do funny things to certain people, some good, some bad, some...just confusing.

I remember when the Canucks made it to the Stanley Cup final against the New York Rangers. There we were, me and my dad. I was 8 years old in my old school Canucks Jersey, my dad 37 in his new York Rangers colors.

The game was so intense. This was the first Stanley Cup I ever cared about (maybe the last too). My team was down 3-1 most of the game. As we fought back to a 3-2 position there was a glimmer of hope...we could win this...

Then Nathan LaYayette hit the goal post. HE HIT THE POST!!!

The remaining minuets of the 3rd period were the longest minuets...ever. Rangers won 3-2. And I cried. I cried hard. and my dad, he just cheered. And He cheered loud. So I cried louder, and then my mom hit my dad for being a jerk.

An hour or so after things settled down my Dad came and talked to me. I can't remember exactly what was said, but that was the first day I understood the impact of sports on the human psychology. He was just preparing me for competition later in life.

So you know what, maybe this whole packers thing was a learning experience for this kid. I mean granted I only cried, and this kid had a jersey forced upon his body and secured with tape by his very own father. But who's to say that act wasn't really the biggest "I Love you Son" ever. Awwwwe <3

Celebrities & Steroids

Steroids beyond sports

Celebrities now among those linked to drug shipments

First published: Sunday, January 13, 2008 PATCHOGUE -- The names of R&B music star Mary J. Blige, along with rap artists 50 Cent, Timbaland and Wyclef Jean, and award-winning author and producer Tyler Perry, have emerged in an Albany-based investigation of steroids trafficking that has already rocked the professional sports world, according to confidential sources....Full Story Here

C4NN Says:

We here at the network were a little confused by some of the claims in this article. Granted, 50 Cent and Timbaland are pretty big guys, and always have been. Timbaland has always been a big guy, but is actually just in better shape now compared to his look during his underground break out.

50 cent, The musical love child of Dr Dre and Eminem, burst through Interscopes corporate placenta sporting a buff bod right from his first single "In Da Club." The song that set his path for millions and was my high-school generations "Soulja Boy."

The dance was easier to! All you had to do was bounce one arm in the air to the beat, over and over like your throwing scissors in a slow mo game of Rock Paper Scissors, and for extra effect grab your crotch (optional). But I digress.

So what's the big deal about this new roid report? who cares? Some guys just want to get big, and its not like they are cheating any one in a sport. They rap for a living.

Well regardless of the fact steroid use is illegal, the poor impressionable children, womens rights, and save the whales and baby seals movements. All C4NN wants to know is...How long have Mary J. Blige and Wyclef Jean been allegedly taking roids, and what brand are they taking because when I get juiced up this summer I will know what NOT to take. Cause first thing that comes to my mind when someone says "Roids and Celebrities" Is "Trebek owes me 5$ I KNEW Marry J. and Wyclef were juicing...THEY ARE HUGE."

Look at them...Wyclef...the Roid Monkey...and Marry J that Butch Cow. How could they do that to us. Think of the children.

Cloned Beef Burgers: "Delicious"

The FDA has said food from cloned animals is safe. Though it won't land in markets yet, cloned meat is being served at one company

by Pallavi Gogoi

Shirley Trimmer knows her hamburgers. She prepares them with a handful of bread cubes, a little egg, chopped onions, and just the right sprinkling of salt and pepper. Last Friday, on Jan. 5, Trimmer prepared some of the burgers for a lunch meeting of the seven-member team that makes up the biotech company Cyagra, based in Elizabethtown, Pa.

But something was different about these hamburgers: They were made from the meat of cloned cows. For the last year or so, every Friday, employees at Cyagra have been eating their way through the thousands of pounds of beef left over from the 11 clones that the company raised and slaughtered for a cloned-meat study. "We started with the steaks, which we grilled all summer long, and now we have hamburger meat left over," says Trimmer. Steve Mower, the company's director of marketing, says, "She cooks [the burgers] just right. They're delicious.....

...Full Business Week Story Here

C4NN Says:

Have you ever had a burger SO Good...you just had to have another just like it? well now you can!

I see this going one of two ways.

1. We find a bunch of perfect cows, clone them,and only have healthy cows to eat after we kill all the sick and Jewish cows (before you get offended that's a joke by the way, we would obviously nurse the sick cows back to health THEN eat them :P...jokes *hugz 4 jewz*)
2. Something goes horribly wrong and the genetic material in the cloned cows begins to break down and mutate at a rapid rate, Thus giving them psychic and telekinetic abilities powerful enough to enslave the human race.
   

So what if our meat is cloned? (so long as option #2 does not happen) Good meat is good meat right? What will the impact to all this be? What would you clone if you could? I'd clone some cookies right about now :(
