Well, I did like your suggestions the best.
Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

They do used freshly killed goats but sometimes the bait bag can also include: used feminine hygiene products.

In breaking news, unrelated to the current discussion, what's that box w/ (usually) mixed character text you have to enter on some sites to prove you're not some kind of a robot called? ugh, for a writer my brain is not coming up with the right words at all today.

Thanks, flea! I don't know if I should even use that in the thing I'm writing, I don't know if most people reading will know what it is, but it was killing me that I couldn't remember the word!

If we keep extending life span we are only further compounding the over population problem
I agree. "Wow, I'm 200 years old! My wife died 90 years ago, my last child died 40 years ago, and none of my grand children wanted to have kids in the world as it is today. Nobody I knew is still around, and everyone else thinks I'm a freak! But yay! I'm alive! I've proven the human organism can survive for multiple centuries! I just forgot why I thought it was a good idea."

A friend of mine was visiting Indonesia and got a chance to see the dragons. You totally don't want to know what the preferred bait is to draw them out.
I was going to say pesto cream sauce, but I see that Cashmere shared already.
Here she is, your Komodo dragon!

We were once in a store (Teppy, that Mediterranean store in your old hood) and this guy was giving us an unrequested lecture on how antioxidants were going to keep him young forever, blah blah blah. He asked mr. flea, "How old do you think I am, huh?" and mr. flea looked at him and said, "48." Turned out he was only 45; I guess the antioxidants weren't working. And boy was he mad.

msbelle, if it helps, there was this over the weekend:
JONATHON PORRITT, one of Gordon Brown’s leading green advisers, is to warn that Britain must drastically reduce its population if it is to build a sustainable society. Porritt’s call will come at this week’s annual conference of the Optimum Population Trust (OPT), of which he is patron. The trust will release research suggesting UK population must be cut to 30m if the country wants to feed itself sustainably.
