Heroin Chic
President Clinton spoke out last week against "heroin chic," the glamorization of heroin use through fashion ads depicting emaciated, strung-out-looking models. What do you think?

"We need to educate young people about the dangers of heroin. For example, don't buy from my uncle, because he cuts it with roach paste."
Roy Lofton,
Stock Broker
"You know who's a real heroine? Bette Midler, that's who."
Theo Buscell,
Legal Secretary
"Ever since I started looking lifeless and emaciated, my popularity has soared. Thanks, AIDS!"
Chris Auletta,
Optometrist
"I'm still waiting for my Boy Scout-impaling habit to become chic."
Ryan Sorghum,
Dairy Farmer
"I think Clinton might really learn to like heroin if he just got addicted to it."
Candace Royer,
Science Teacher
"Why do the young kids enjoy so much the heroin and the close dancing and the iron-on patches? Why can't they join a church group and play 'Stardust' on the organ to nursing home patients?"
