Scientists are trying to bring back this animal, the Tazzie Tiger, which went extinct in the early 1900s. They apparently have enough DNA to clone it by using a tiger or some other feline as a surrogate parent. So I thought to myself- who would I bring back from the grave if I could? I propose the following celebrities/ personalities.
Edgar Allen Poe
- His poems were so amazing, and he died tragically young. And he liked nature. I think that for bringing Poe back he would have to: A) recite his poems at a party of mine for Halloween or the Winter Solstice, B) Accompany me on shopping trips to freak out the other customers, and C) Accompany me on double dates with a girl that I choose for him. I think because he's kinda creepy and married his cousin, it would make me look really good.
Chester A. Arthur- Mainly because of his amazing mustache, his cool mutton chops, and his snazzy suit. Plus, you could go up to him and say: "Wow! It's Chester A. Arthur! We hardly knew ye!"
Mary Shelley- the author of Frankenstein. She could help me with A) finding corpse parts B) Assembling them into a monster, and C) Writing the great American novel (Although she's British, she would give me perspective).
Cher. I don't have a picture of her, but that's not really the point. I am really indifferent towards her music, but I'm not indifferent towards her Fresno-ness. She briefly attended Fresno High (she never graduated). But I take pride in the fact that she is a celebrity and from my home town and has A) never been in prison, B) doesn't belong in prison C) doesn't look or smell like she belongs in prison (Unlike K Fed), D) hasn't played someone who works in prison (Mayor Bubba excluded- he was more of celebrity), and E) hasn't been on Star Trek Voyager (like a certain Fresnan).
Not all of us are like Dick Clark, who took a thirty-year break from aging. Do I want the same kind of eternally young treatment? Maybe in a few years. I'm not quite at the peak of my pre-botox perfection.

How about a poll, vector or raster.
Decent job on your project! You should I.M. me so we can discuss it further. During class is probably the best time to catch me online.
peaceout!
i think less attention should be paid to cloning and more attention should be focused on cryogenically freezing peoples' heads and then later reanimating them and attaching them to household appliances.
because edgar allen poe's head on a blender? that's a double date you can't top!
hahahahahahahahahahaha cher isn't dead.
I totally feel you about poe though. anybody can look good next to an incestuous suicidal drunk. but I think he would kinda be a party pooper and that would ruin the date for everybody ya know?
What if someone wanted to clone 2Pac and then there were two 2Pacs. Undoubtedly one would kill the other. And if someone cloned Elvis and so there was a real Elvis walking around, no one would believe it, because there are too many Elvis impersonators.
I passed my pre-botox perfection. Its all down hill from there :(
