Rich Folk
| An American woman blinked back tears of joy Tuesday as she cuddled puppies cloned in South Korea from her beloved former pit bull terrier. ... Ra's company [South Korean cloning] originally charged 150,000 dollars to clone Booger. ... But it agreed to come down to 50,000 dollars to celebrate what it calls the first commercial deal for a pet dog. |
The price that lady was going to pay would have almost been enough to pay for our new house. It could replace my and my wife's cars six times over. I could go down to the animal shelter and adopt 2,884 dogs, most of whom are probably destined to be killed. My wife and I could take an annual 18 day cruise to Europe every year for the next fifteen years. I could bank it and take me and the neighbors out to dinner every month for a long, long time. I could buy a CD and look at $7500 every year.
And she cloned a pit bull of all things with it.
