I'll have to go with the original/wilder one. Even though I read the book (as well as the Great Glass Elevator 'sequal'), I still like Wilder's version better.
And to be honest, with Burton and Depp, I was expecting this version to be MORE creepy and psychotic and unnerving than Wilder's version (in subtext at least), and it was less so.
I thought the best way to spread a vaccine/cure for sexually transmitted diseases would be to make the cure/vaccine sexually transmitted (perhaps via virus that kils the disease but is harmless to people?)
It's a bit sci-fi, but if it could be done, i think the cure/vaccine would spread to more people and more quickly than medical personel could distribute it.
Creepy, and in more than just the 'dead unblinking face starting at you' way. Its creepy for the indications of the psychology of those who'd keep it around.
This would be cool, and I think it's just a display (no interactivity beyond on/off), so I don't think you'd dial keypads on your arm.
I would think it'd be much like a monochrome LCD, so it could be set to display caller ID, other text, the time, and depending on the resolution, animated characters or even mobil-phone quality video.
I wonder, though... if the device operates off of gluecose and such in the blood, would it be safe for diebetics? Would it have a significant impact on your caloric health? Would it have a waste product?
The venus fly trap evolved from a letter plant when that plant ate a poekmon power crystal.
(oh, and Misc - it wouldn't, not unless some random mutation caused it to stop producing the sticky fluid, and the new breed flourished more. This is why humans still have apendix and other species other useless things).
Chick-fil-a is awesome. I know how they make their chicken (but not necessarily the ingredients of the milk-wash or breading, but i know paprika is in it). But they do pressure cook it, specifically in peanut oil. They also marinate it overnight in a marinade made up of mostly pickle juice, and some other stuff I don't know.
Oh, and they also always used 100% white breast meat. For ALL their chicken products.
I once tried recreating some chick-fil-a this way, an it came out quite similar. (I have to... there's no Chick-fil-a's in Washington, and THATS A CRIME!!!!! :C )
