''LOVE AT FIRST BITE!?''
The news for you students and readers is this that The Van Helsings of this world have gone the way of dodo! Nowadays I doubt if you can rest easy in your coffin, secure in the knowledge that no one's going to come lumbering at you with a crucifix and holy water!
Nor is there likely to be a mass surge of moral outrage over your feeding habits, not in the twentieth century?
Vlad, the impaler -the primary role model for Dracula- might have been a formidable prospect back in the Middle Ages with his 30,000 victims, but this kind of a body count is a small Beer next to the Final Solution, say, or Somalia.
You all, students -tolerate things that are intolerable because you live in a world in which greed, selfishness, violence, misery, sufferings, and crime have been institutionalised.
And The Rich are encouraged to feed off the poor. The Industrialised Nations exploit the Third World as a matter of course, and the wealthy North routinely sucks the lifeblood out of the miserable impoverished south. Everyone is a Carnivore.
So, tell me, nay explain to me, who on earth is going to get worked up over the trivial happening over the spot of neck-biting??
The single biggest turnaround is that no one is frightened of Vampires any more.
The Vampires are only us!! Fear of the walking undead used to have a lot to do with the fear of being infected and becoming one of them yourself: succumbing to the ultimate horror of losing your soul.
But who? Which one of you nowadays truly believes he has a soul to save? Try raising your hand so that I can see ya!
Given the choice, an awful lot of people would like to be a Vampire right now, so they could check in to at least some sort of afterlife an save a packet on the Dentists and the Dental fabrications. And who cares if they are damned, and when the damned have all the time in the world to have all the fun!!
Breakfast meetings, We set great store by personal organisers, effecient management of the working day, breakfast meetings, and gossip windows -not a moment must go waste. But just imagine: if you were a Vampire you will be cut free from the tyranny of time. With the years on your side, you could excel in several different careers simultaneously, learn to speak six languages fluently, an take lessons in classical piano and violin.
Either that, or you would remain in death the same person you always were in life, and spend an eternity slumped in front of a all night-TV with many many bottles and cans of Bull's Blood!
The Vampire is no longer the tall, dark stranger scratching at the window with long fingernails, waiting to be beckoned. He has a received a standing invitation and support from the world at large. He is already all around you!!
As this smashing post continues, do consider sharing forward with all the Vampires that you know of. And do not miss the morrow one. The one as scary as you can imagine.
Good Night & God Bless!
