The 44th Flavuh

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream. Literally.

New Ice Cream flavor (hat tip Denise)

In honor of the 44th President of the United States, Baskin-Robbins Ice Cream has introduced a new flavor; "Barocky Road". Barocky Road is a blend of half-Vanilla, half-Chocolate, and surrounded by Nuts and Flakes. The Vanilla portion of the mix is not openly advertised and usually denied as an ingredient.

The Nuts and Flakes are all very bitter and hard to swallow. The cost is $74,000.00 per person. When purchased it will be presented to you in a large beautiful cone, but then the Ice Cream is taken away and given to the person in line behind you.

Thus, you are left with an empty Wallet, holding an empty cone, with no hope of getting any Ice Cream .

Do you feel stimulated now?

The Indefatigable Will of the Jewish People........ just laugh

You gotta love the Jewish people .... no, no, seriously. Here they are, defending their tiny nation against Islamic jihad and worldwide condemnation for fighting to survive, suffering under bogus blood libels manufactured by jihad and disseminated by a willing anti-semitic word press, subject to a relentless stream of Jewish genocide marches across the world, and instead of whining (like the libs and jihadis) ......... laughs.  Gaza: satirizing world media ...."Palestinian roasted babies."

UPDATE: From The Israel Project: (hat tip Dass)

On Dec. 30, a reformist Iranian newspaper published a statement by a student organization that criticized Hamas for risking civilian lives, including children, by hiding its forces in nurseries and hospitals. The Iranian Culture Ministry shut down the newspaper after it printed the statements.[29]  
Israel has publicly stated time and again that it regrets the loss of any civilian life and considers each one a tragedy.  However, both Iran-backed Hamas and Iran-backed Hezbollah have a history of faking deaths and funerals. For example, in Spring 2002, Palestinians were filmed as they attempted to stage a fake funeral as part of a gross exaggeration of the number of people killed in Jenin. The film shows Palestinians wrapping, then carrying a ‘corpse’ on a funeral pier; the ‘corpse’ falls off several times and gets back on – including in front of a large and surprised crowd.[30] Click here for video of faked funeral. Although some reports say a quarter of the deaths during “Operation Cast Lead” have been civilians, Palestinian terrorists’ history of deceptions and false claims require reporters to work to verify such information.  
During Israel’s defensive war against Hezbollah two years ago, the phenomenon was so common that it became known as “Hezbollywood.”[31] One of the best-known instances was when a man purporting to be a rescue worker at the site of a bombed village appeared in various photos in the international media, repeatedly displaying the same child’s dead body at different times – and in different poses – throughout the day. The man, identified as Salam Daher, wore a green helmet in all of the photos, earning himself the nickname “green helmet guy.” Daher was also found to have directed a camera shooting the scene.[32]


And of course the mother of all blood libels, Al Dura.

Snapped laments the repetitive meme becomes tiresome.

And now for the Islamic beauty pageant

I am sure they will have no problem, I can't see Israel entering this beauty pageant.

Camel beauty pageant in Abu Dhabi Digital Journal hat tip Susan

Thousands of camels will be fluttering their long eyelashes and Joe_camel2swaying their giant humps in the Al Dhafrah Festival to celebrate Bedouin culture. As much as $40 million (AED) and 143 trucks will be given away.

Thousands of camels from Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and other countries have entered the beauty contest, where camels are assessed on strict criteria including the curvature of their ears, the size of their nose relative to the rest of the face and the fullness of hump.

The Al Dhafrah festival is organised by the Abu Dhabi authority for Culture and Heritage as a way of preserving the United Arab Emirates' (UAE) love of camels. Camels are always part of the culture of Bedouin life and revered as a measure of wealth. They have long been seen as central to the heritage of the Gulf.

Hmmmmmmmmmm, the Camel camel is a smoker, not halal, so I guess Joe Camel is out.

The Dukes!

Robert Davi has a new movie coming out.  I met Davi at the RNC. He's a great guy. He was hanging with Jon Voight .... that speaks volumes.Davi_atlas_voight_2

His new flick is breaking tomorrow, The Dukes,  and the leftard movie reviewers are  eviscerating  (shocka!) it because he's not a .... leftard. So if you're free tonight go and show your support of our peeps in the Follywood.
Lis DaPasquale caught the flick, check out here review here.

Davi’s Passion for Politics and Movie Making Lisa De Pasqualee

In support of Sen. Norm Coleman’s campaign several right-of-center actors participated in a campaign video.  Among the leftist blogs, most of the actors were insulted for being “has-beens” and “Bible thumpers.”  Except one.  Robert Davi was called a “great character actor.”  Another said, “Don’t diss Robert Davi.”

An actor friend said, “Robert Davi is the kind of actor that other actors want to be.  You want his roles.  You want his commitment.  You want his passion for ac ting.”

To many, Davi is best known for playing the bad guy.  Jake Fratelli in The Goonies.  Franz Sanchez in License to Kill.  Aziz in An American Carol.  He’s also been on the other side of the law as FBI Special Agent Johnson in Die Hard and Agent Bailey Malone in Profiler.  In The Dukes Davi plays “Danny DePasquale,” a former Doo Wop singer whose time in the spotlight has passed.  He is now working in his aunt’s failing restaurant.  The Dukes is Davi’s debut as a writer and director.

“Directing is a way for me to open that book andexpress to the world much more of who I am and what I would like to say,” said Davi.

Waxwork Hitler is beheaded.... and short a ball

I'd like to buy that man a  beer!

Waxwork Hitler is beheaded
THE head of a waxwork Adolf Hitler has been ripped off at a newly opened branch of Madame Tussauds in Berlin

A 41-year-old man has been arrested after attacking the figure only hours after the attraction opened on Saturday.

The inclusion of Hitler in the exhibition has aroused controversy in a country where Nazi symbols are banned

And in other Hitler news ....... this explains a lot.

HITLER ONLY HAD ONE BALL The Sun hat tip yid

AN extraordinary account from a German army medic has finally confirmed what the world long suspected: Hitler only had one ball. War veteran Johan Jambor made the revelation to a priest in the 1960s, who wrote it down. Balless_hitler

The priest’s document has now come to light – 23 years after Johan’s death.

The war tyrant’s medical condition has been mocked for years in a British song.

The lyrics are: “Hitler has only got one ball, the other is in the Albert Hall. His mother, the dirty b****r, cut it off when he was small.’

Until now there has never been complete proof Hitler was monorchic – the medical term for having one testicle.

But the document tells how Johan saw the proof with his own eyes. In the account, he relives the horror of serving as an army medic in World War I.

Read it all .... I am surprised they found one ball ..... he looks like a woman.

OBAMAWEEN

I have to say with all of the fascinating email I receive, generally wonderful stuff from my readers, this was my favorite today. The video is great - the drawings even better. 40,000 views in a couple of days? That's damn good - usually that requires a bikini :)

Dear Pamela,
It's a weird occurrence today,... me writing to you (and, I must confess, a handful of your fellow writers as well). I was a libertarian for quite a long time before this election year. I did my thing,... clung to the middle on many social issues and used the constitution as my catch-all shield against extreme liberalism and (to be honest) anything else that I didn't really like that well.      But, unfortunately for me, I started reading many of your blogs with mild amusement at times, and mild jealousy at others (all wannabe writers feel this I suspect)... all of these thoughts pocketed like Swiss political ideology queso,... with holes of logic that ran through the conservative philosophy, found their way straight into my own worldview. It was undeniable...

I didn't yet know it,... but I was becoming republican.

     Now,... under normal circumstances,... I admit... I would simply turn on my Xbox 360 and see if I could find a way to hack the "Rock the Vote" channel being showcased, or maybe go out with my wife to dinner and discuss how "unusual" and "interesting" peoples' opinions have become these days (those words being gilded euphemisms used to feign arrogance on my part,... but really, sometimes  I just like to try to impress my lovely wife ;) ).

     Fate, however,... has (as it always does) intervened,... and the concept of "going out to  dinner" vanished blissfully as my son Ace was born into the world nearly five weeks ago now. It was a joyous occasion, and after several weeks recovery my wife and I began to learn some things about ourselves as individuals and as a family.... mainly:

1-We were in fact grownups. Oh sure, before Ace came along we had played at being "cool", going out, drinking  cocktails with names that are unspeakable in decent company, and singing karaoke until the  audience's noses were bleeding,... but really, underneath it all, we were proud, happy, stay-at- home and chill-out,... parents.

2-We were politically conservative. You see all of a sudden, it actually became important to us  that the American Dream be a tangible, attainable reality for our son. Both my wife and I graduated from fairly well known universities here in Florida (University of Miami and UCF), but all of a sudden, the lives and jobs and values that we have had in the past and currently keep,... these things that define our roles and character and affect colleagues, friends, and relationships on a day-to-day basis,... all of it,... from the gas we pumped into our car, to the late nights at the office,... it didn't seem so ephemeral to us anymore. They were income. Time invested. Money for clothes and food and vacations in the future,... vacations to places where we would all learn new things and our son could step proudly on our shoulders and BE that next generation. They were character traits and selflessness and sacrifice and things that we would need to teach our boy. They were God, and Country and being part of something bigger than one's self. They were fun and laughter and a great big wide country that bursts at the seams with adventure and technology and history and culture,... a culture all its own. All of this,..  it all became,... well, just... REAL.

3-We were downright appalled. I will say it again. Appalled. The fact the Senator Barack Obama has  made it as far as he has with virtually no experience on the world stage is strange. The fact that he has made it this far into a 9 digit budget marketing campaign without this sort of polictial contest becoming a landslide is BEYOND ridiculous. It just shows how difficult the "sales pitch" was to begin with. The fact that only a limited number of people seem to be using the tried n' true, job-interview, best-qualified person-for-the-job litmus test as the best way to go about "hiring" a president,... it is BEYOND illogical. And,... (ahemm) it is ALL downright SUSPICIOUS (now I sound like a libertarian again don't I! ;) ) But most of all, we were appalled... at ourselves.

     And so, with my crazy-producer's hat in my hand, I sat down at the little four legged fold out table from Wal-Mart, parked serenely like a "2008 : A Space-Wasting Odyssey",... serenely in the family-room nerve center of our baby-gear infested apartment, amid "new-parents-live-here" festooned, clutter-cubes dotting the carpet landscape, and peeping from every nook,... (think Johnny Depp in the scene from BLOW with boxes of money,... but instead of money, think diapers)....

I sat... and started writing out a silly song.

That song turned into a recording.

That recording begat a series of drawings.

Those drawings became a video. That video was posted to YouTube 3 days ago.

Now let me first say,... we did not KNOW that this video was going to receive the amount of traffic that it has. It is silly. Obnoxious. Downright campy in places. The music (to quote one of the reviews) sounds like bad 80's rock)... and (again to quote) apparently people "love it".

"Love it" to the tune of almost 35,000 views in three days (as of this writing).

And so, I thought to myself... can a stupid, meaningless YouTube video really change anyone's mind? Or is "spoof" (as an animated art form,... and I use the word "art" loosely... though Lorne Michaels might disagree with me...), is spoof more of "window" onto ourselves as Americans? Or, more personally, a window onto the past "me" (not that I ever would have voted for Barack,... but you get the gist).

So after some pondering, I thought perhaps I would simply send a note (and at this point, a long-winded one!) to some of the people who got me here in the first place, the writers whose internet WordPress's I "lounged" over lazily, during a time when politics (to me) were an endeavor for, older, wiser, crankier people who wore darker, more expensive suits than me,... and  where opinions were merely jagged stones that were thrown grumpily into a small pond,... where the strongest of arms and the random coalescence of merging ripples would always (and sometimes seemingly randomly) prevail over others. Well,... I am proud to say,... that age for me is over.

I am an American. I do NOT support Barack Obama. I threw a stone in the pond. And I invite you to give this particular stone a view...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=THzaZmqlaAg

(OBAMAWEEN)

Should you like it or wish to critique it, please feel free as I respect you as the one of the "serious" minds in the room (but really, how does that sound coming from an indie film producer? ;). Should you find it so inanely delightful that you want to embed it in your blog, your site, your whatever (though to mesh it well with your solid, intellectually well-crafted slice of online patriotica web-real estate,... hmm, might not go well... just a thought ;) ),... but again, please be my guest.

But whatever the case may be, God Bless You for Fighting Hard for what's right, even when guys like me did nothing for so many years.

God Bless the First Amendment (which still gives silly filmmakers the right to churn out animated  spoofs named "Obamaween").

AND

God Bless America.

I don't know what will happen on November 4th,... but I will see you and some of your colleagues on the other side, ready,... with a stone in my hand and a pile of them sitting beside me.

Very Respectfully,

C. Alex Velazquez

At the movies .... with Wilders

At the leftard movies with Geert Wilders ... woot. The counter jihad's perfect date ............ lol

Wild horses could not have dragged me to a Bill Maher production  ....  but Wilders could

It was his idea and  he is actually in the movie and hadn't seen it yet  (!) so he gets a get-out-of- jail-free card on this one.  Frankly, Wilders appearance is the highlight of the movie and the only Geert_wildersm_pamela_geller snapshot of reason in an otherwise leftist, religion hating rant.  Wilders was the sole (soul) sane moment. I am surprised Maher used it.

Bill Maher's  "Religulous" - as in ridiculous- apt as  Maher's non stop superiority and contempt was  ridiculous. Marketed as a "pro-atheism" movie, what it is, is a bash religion mess. Lots of Maher verbal diarrhea.

Maher lampoons, Christianity, Scientology, Judaism, Mormonism, and touches upon Islam (at the end) but hey .... all religions are equal and equally stupid, right?

Always looking for an easy mark  he kicks off his circle jerk at a truck stop chapel where one fellow, Joe Sixpack I think,  saw Maher's intent and walked out. We liked him.

Maher challenges the whole believability aspect of religion and sets out to debunk it because it is not enough to have faith.

Hey Bill, I can't see your brain therefore you don't have one. Works for me.

All of the problems of the world would disappear if everyone was godless like Maher. A godless state. Like the Soviet Union? Yeah, that worked out well.

Maher's movie is embarrassing to watch. His  humor fails, a chuckle here and there but this did not belong in theaters. This should have been an HBO offering.

The movies theater was empty - on a weekend, in a blue state which gives a good indication that the  rational folks are staying away in droves.

This is Maher's treatise on religion. And of course he's an expert because his mother was Jewish, though no one ever mentioned that or spoke of it in his home growing up despite their weekly church attendance sans mom. No one asked ma maher grwoing up,  hey whaddup. Terrible secrets like Judaism are not discussed.He rails against Christianity and holds religious middle Americans in contempt. He paints  the Mormons as a complete freakazoid  side show. He makes the typical Jewish money jokes - poorly (borscht belt, sans borscht).

The Jews he chooses to showcase are ex-Jews for Jesus and the Jewicidal Israel haters, neturei karta, the same "jews" that canoodled with Ahmadinejad. Need I say more?

He lambasted the arcane rules of the Jewish Sabbath and the punishment for breaking those rules - DEATH! Irrelevant that no one is being put to death vs. say, the relentless, mindless violence of Islamic jihad. The fact that the latter results in tens of thousands of deaths is beside the point. get it?

Maher hit Jerusalem, covered the Vatican, cruised Salt lake City ...........but never made it to Mecca or Medina.Hmmmm, I thought all religions were equally bad. Whatever.

The kindest thing I can say about this "film"  was  that it boring, big time. This is what passes for entertainment these days? Hollywood is dead. I prefer my Saturday Night Cinema - foe shizzle.

Gee, I hope Wilders doesn't have a cameo in W.

FREE TONIGHT?

Well get free and join Atlas at the movies this weekend.  We must juice the box office on Zucker's movie this weekend. If you're tired of all the America hating, right wing bashing, leftard garbage coming out of the left coast sewer, haul ass and see this movie.

By Frank J. Gaffney, Jr. National Review
It's election season, so it is appropriate that an important vote will be cast this weekend. No, I am not talking about early balloting in Ohio or Oregon for the November presidential Americancarol race. Rather, this vote is a national one— and it will be taking place at a theater near you.
This weekend, the returns will be tallied on box-office sales of the opening weekend of An American Carol — a marvelously politically incorrect take-off on the timeless Dickensian morality tale. Set around the Fourth of July in contemporary America rather than a Victorian Yuletide, it has been created and directed by my friend, the zany and wildly successful David Zucker.
This Carol's Scrooge character, played by Kevin Farley, is a dead-ringer for radical leftist filmmaker Michael Moore. The ghosts who visit him — including John F. Kennedy, George S. Patton, and George Washington — labor to teach their subject about the greatness of this country, the absurdity of the "Blame-America-First" Left's toxic hatred for it and the opening the latter provides for Islamists bent on our destruction. Punctuated by trademark Zucker slapstick humor (his other credits include Airplane!, The Naked Gun, Scary Movie 3, and assorted sequels), the movie makes a deadly serious point: Everything is on the line in this War for the Free World and those of us who prize our freedoms will lose them if we fail to protect them against enemies foreign and domestic.

Quote of the day

"Evil spawn Angelina Jolie and her vacuous hubby Brad Pitt make about forty million dollars a year in violent psychopathic movies and give away three of it to starving children trying to look as if they give a crap about humanity," Roseanne Barr writes on her blog. She also criticizes the couple for not supporting Barack Obama.

HAPPY HAPPY Day, Great Americans!

This is my MOST favorite holiday of the year. MOST. I'm a yankee doodle dandy  :)

Fireworks

SPECTACULAR SPECTACLE Fireworks light up the sky over New York’s East River, looking from Queens toward Manhattan, during a Fourth of July celebration. The Chrysler Building is at right. This Friday’s celebration will feature digital synchronization that will allow fireworks to move in close harmony with a live sound track. Thats where I'll be. Woo hoo!

Send the word, over there. 

Does patriotism matter? Dr. Thomas Sowell

The Fourth of July is a patriotic holiday but patriotism has long been viewed with suspicion or disdain by many of the intelligentsia. As far back as 1793, prominent British writer William Godwin called patriotism "high-sounding nonsense."

Internationalism has long been a competitor with patriotism, especially among the intelligentsia. H.G. Wells advocated replacing the idea of duty to one's country with "the idea of cosmopolitan duty."

Perhaps nowhere was patriotism so downplayed or deplored than among intellectuals in the Western democracies in the two decades after the horrors of the First World War, fought under various nations' banners of patriotism.

Read all of Sowell

UPDATE: From Atlas reader Norman: "I'm sure you've heard or read this piece. It was written 35 years ago by Gordon Sinclair, a Canadian journalist. It sums up what I and many of my fellow citizens think of The Americans.'

"On June 5, 1973, following news that the American Red Cross had run out of money as a result of aid efforts for recent natural disasters, Sinclair recorded what would become his most famous radio editorial, "The Americans." While paying tribute to American success, ingenuity, and generosity to people in need abroad, Sinclair decried that when America faced crisis itself, it often seemed to face that crisis alone."

UPDATE: Bill sent the audio of Sincalir. Fabulous! Download GS-06051973.mp3

UPDATE: Thank the troops!

UPDATE: Paine the Pamphleteer

UPDATE: Van did the Atlasphere a great service.  He chose to send us  some quotes  from our founding fathers that relate  most curiously to current times. Van said, "It shows the prescience of these great Men and this great Experiment called AMERICA."

QUOTES FROM THE FOUNDING FATHERS

Guard against the impostures of pretended patriotism.
George Washington, Farewell Address, September 19, 1796

I rejoice in a belief that intellectual light will spring up in the dark corners of the earth; that freedom of enquiry will produce liberality of conduct; that mankind will reverse the absurd position that the many were, made for the few; and that they will not continue slaves in one part of the globe, when they can become freemen in another.
George Washington, draft of First Inaugural Address, April 1789

If we desire to insult, we must be able to repel it; if we desire to secure peace, one of the most powerful instruments of our rising prosperity, it must be known, that we are at all times ready for War.
George Washington, Annual Message, December 1793

I was summoned by my country, whose voice I can never hear but with veneration and love.
George Washington, First Inaugural Address, April 30, 1789

It is yet to be decided whether the Revolution must ultimately be considered as a blessing or a curse: a blessing or a curse, not to the present age alone, for with our fate will the destiny of unborn millions be involved.
George Washington, Circular to the States, 1783

It will be worthy of a free, enlightened, and, at no distant period, a great Nation, to give to mankind the magnanimous and too novel example of a People always guided by an exalted justice and benevolence.
George Washington, Farewell Address, September 19, 1796

Liberty, when it begins to take root, is a plant of rapid growth.
George Washington, letter to James Madison, March 2, 1788

May the father of all mercies scatter light, and not darkness, upon our paths, and make us in all our several vocations useful here, and in His own due time and way everlastingly happy.
George Washington, letter to the Hebrew Congregation of Newport, Rhode Island, August 17, 1790

***********

I have been happy... in believing that... whatever follies we may be led into as to foreign nations, we shall never give up our Union, the last anchor of our hope, and that alone which is to prevent this heavenly country from becoming an arena of gladiators.
Thomas Jefferson, letter to Elbridge Gerry, May 13, 1797

I suppose, indeed, that in public life, a man whose political principles have any decided character and who has energy enough to give them effect must always expect to encounter political hostility from those of adverse principles.
Thomas Jefferson, letter to Richard M. Johnson, March 10, 1808

I think we have more machinery of government than is necessary, too many parasites living on the labor of the industrious.
Thomas Jefferson, letter to William Ludlow, September 6, 1824

If a nation expects to be ignorant — and free — in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.
Thomas Jefferson, letter to Colonel Charles Yancey, January 6, 1816

*************

A popular Government, without popular information, or the means of acquiring it, is but a Prologue to a Farce or a Tragedy; or, perhaps both. Knowledge will forever govern ignorance: And a people who mean to be their own Governors, must arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives. James Madison, letter to W.T. Barry, August 4, 1822

Happily for America, happily, we trust, for the whole human race, they pursued a new and more noble course. They accomplished a revolution which has no parallel in the annals of human society. James Madison, Federalist No. 14, November 20, 1787

A universal peace, it is to be feared, is in the catalogue of events, which will never exist but in the imaginations of visionary philosophers, or in the breasts of benevolent enthusiasts.
James Madison, essay in the National Gazette, February 2, 1792

All men having power ought to be distrusted to a certain degree.
James Madison, speech at the Constitutional Convention, July 11, 1787

America united with a handful of troops, or without a single soldier, exhibits a more forbidding posture to foreign ambition than America disunited, with a hundred thousand veterans ready for combat.
James Madison, Federalist No. 14, November 30, 1787

Enlightened statesmen will not always be at the helm.
James Madison, Federalist No. 10, November 23, 1787

Every man who loves peace, every man who loves his country, every man who loves liberty ought to have it ever before his eyes that he may cherish in his heart a due attachment to the Union of America and be able to set a due value on the means of preserving it.
James Madison, Federalist No. 41, January 1788

OBORAT

Belletrist David, "It just occurred to me, I haven't seen anyone comparing Wright's speeches and Obama's acquiescence to Borat's gig in the redneck Texas bar where he sang "Throw the Jew Down the Well" and everyone just sat there and sang along.

Was he prescient and insightful or just inciteful?"Borat for Pres! (Pres = Prescience)

Real Quotes from Real News

Ben sent this gem:

Here's a guy who just doesn't understand the name of the group he belongs to:

"We should do something more violent than just protest, but today we are keeping it peaceful," said Suloh Salaimad, a member of the Muslim Group for Peace.  

And here's one who has proved that there are non-Muslims out there who are even further gone into psycho territory- a Liberian insurgent admits to eating people:

How many ECOMOG soldiers did you eat?" the attorney asked.

"We ate a few but not many. But many were executed, about 68," the witness said, and several U.N. personnel also were captured. The time and location of the incident were unclear.

Ah, but wait, the REAL scary quote is what the attorney asked NEXT:

"Which ones taste best?"
Griffith asked.

I cannot make this up.   Maybe CNN can, they've always had a vivid imagination.

Limerick Laureates, heh

Atlas reader and big funkadelic brain writes a limerick (the Mark Steyn thang must have inspired it)

There's a blogger we look to named Geller
to make sense of it all (except weather)
Speaks the truth as she knows it,
Pride in country, she grows it.
Anti-jihadists, they just dont come better!

I am kvelling!

YidwithLid, my favorite skullcap,  tried his hand:

There once was a Blogger Named Pam
Who knew that Obama's a Sham,
The Strength of Each Post
Made Obama's Arse Roast
And Much Safer is Our Uncle Sam

If this is a trend, I love it.

There once was a Blogger Named Pam
Who knew that Obama's a Sham,
The Strength of Each Post
Made Obama's Arse Roast
And Much Safer is Our Uncle Sam

Another!

Pam was blogging young MILF
who's Limirick couldn't have filth
So Sam took the charge
Cause his ego's quite large
but the ONLY word rhyming was Tilth

UPDATE: Bruceth speaketh!

"Milf" is Filf say I to one Sam
who spits out limericks as fast as he can
So here is a chore go & try it once more
and off to see my babies I ran

UPDATE: John Jay is in da hous. He writes, "my contribution to the limerick wars":

oh, the irish love their girls red haired, red beered, and lambedly stewish
the elk stag his girls brown haired long lashed, and quite newish
     but since the advent of a blogger named geller
     whose charms, beauty and brains are quite stellar
i now like my girls thoroughly and long gammedly jewish.

UPDATE! Richard rocks!

Like the Titan who bears the great load
on his shoulders, she strives to erode
the dhimmified mess
of the leftarded press;
and to make jihadis prematurely explode

An Archbishop of Canterbury Tale

Iowahawk outdoes himself, yet again. (hat tip Larwyn)

44  You othere faelows can't denye,

45  But the council closed my wenching pub,

46  To please the Imams, aye thaere's the rub."

47  Sayeth the Bishop, strokynge his chin,

48  "To the Mosque-man, sexe is sinne

49  So as to staye in his goode-graces

50  Cover well thy wenches' faces

51  And abstain ye Chavs from ribaldry

52  Welcome him to our communitie."

Sex and the Single Muslim

This straight out of Times Online. For real. I gotta tell you, I never knew sex could be so ....uh, complicated.

Sex advice: I'm a 35 year-old Muslim virgin hat tip ejo

Q I’m a 35-year-old Muslim man whose arranged marriage ended quickly (our families fell out). I’m still a virgin and haven’t met anyone else. Any advice?

DR THOMAS STUTTAFORD

A A genitourinary medical clinic in an area of London with a large Muslim population once saw so many patients with problems such as yours that the diagnosis was described as the Bangladeshi syndrome. Such a term might now be considered pejorative, but at the time it merely drew the attention of other doctors to the sexual difficulties that some young men were having with their sex lives.

Your letter says that your marriage wasn’t consummated. In an arranged marriage, the woman may have a horror of penile insertion that leads to vaginal dryness, pain and vaginismus – spasm of the muscles of the pelvis so that the vagina is involuntarily but effectively clamped off.

The man may have to compete with two potentially overwhelming difficulties. The most common is premature ejaculation so that he climaxes either as soon as he penetrates his new and little-known wife or sometimes even before penetration. Some bridegrooms, including a few who are not virgins, find that they are impotent once confronted by a hopeful bride with great expectations.

WTF?

The symptoms of both husband and wife have the same origins. With premature ejaculation, a man suffers orgasmic-type muscle contractions and so ejaculates prematurely; similarly, a woman with vaginismus endures strong involuntary contractions of the same pelvic muscles that are involved with an orgasm at the first hint of penetration. Impotence and vaginal dryness are also signs of a lack of sexual arousal.

TMI.

Talk to your GP about sexual counselling when you remarry. Many causes of marital disharmony are better treated by seeing partners separately. However, joint consultations are helpful, sometimes essential, when dealing with premature ejaculation or vaginismus. Similarly, there are benefits from some joint meetings when focusing on impotence with psychological origins.

The counsellor you consult should not be someone who might disparage your adherence to the Islamic code. Betrothal and marriage customs have varied according to race and religion for thousands of years.

Strict Muslims follow a Mediterranean code that demands virginity for both sexes before marriage. Christianity, because of its Judaic links with the Middle East, also accepts the Mediterranean ethic.

As the Christian Church spread, its marriage customs replaced those of the Nordic pattern in which marriage didn’t celebrate the start of sexual congress but of breeding. Even before the marriage service, those who were formally or informally betrothed were permitted considerable licence in or out of bed.

In the Mediterranean cultures, the formal marriage ceremony was essential before sexual intercourse could be sanctioned.

Within my own lifetime, “bundling” – the practice of lovers going to bed together even if theoretically remaining chaste – was still practised in some areas of Britain. Often young couples didn’t marry until the woman became pregnant. This proved that theirs was a fertile relationship, a factor of importance when considering future inheritance of land.

Dr Thomas Stuttaford, The Times doctor, spent many years working in a genitourinary clinic

SUZI GODSON

A Finding a new partner can be difficult for any 35-year-old divorcé, but since practising Muslims advocate arranged marriage, and do not believe in dating, finding Mr or Mrs Right can be even more difficult.

In the past, parents expected to find their son or daughter a suitable partner from back home in Bangladesh or Pakistan but, understandably, young Muslim men and women who have been born in the UK are increasingly less interested in an arranged marriage with those who have lived all their life in another country. Second and third-generation British Muslims want partners who share their beliefs, but who come from similar backgrounds and are equally compatible in terms of education and interests.

Seven years ago, Adeem Younis founded Single Muslim (www.singlemuslim.com), an online introduction agency, which has more than 100,000 registered users, 90 per cent of whom live in the UK. The site has been set up so that guardians and parents can search for prospective partners, too, and a guardian or wali is expected to attend any meeting to avoid impropriety and pose difficult questions about expectations for the future. To join the site, applicants fill in a detailed profile, with lots of faith-based questions such as “Do you wear a hijab?” or “Do you have a beard?”And a man who prays five times a day can specify, for instance, that he wants a wife who prays as frequently.

Joining Single Muslim is simple. Membership costs £28 a month for men and is free for women. According to Younis, the fact that you are a 35-year-old virgin will make you a very good catch as, from an Islamic perspective, it is a sign that you have stayed on the right path.

When I ask Younis if it is common for arranged marriages not to be consummated immediately, he explains that if your bride is living in, say, Pakistan, and you are working in London, you might have had only a week off to go back and get married. You would then have had to return to London to sort out your wife’s visa and, if the family relationship has broken down in that time, you might never have had the opportunity to spend any time together. He laughs when I then ask if couples wait until they get to know each other before they have sex. “Nature tends to take over on the wedding night, but what we say in arranged marriages is that you learn to love each other,” he says.

With websites such as Single Muslim around to help, finding yourself a new wife has probably never been easier, but keeping her remains as big a challenge as ever. In the true interpretation of Islam, women have equal rights, although different cultural interpretations have led to the oppression of women in many areas. Muslim women in Britain are increasingly aware of what they’re entitled to and are breaking away from the cultural restrictions that might have been imposed on their parents.

As the Single Muslim website advises: “In Islam, although the husband takes the lead in a marriage, a leader is one who serves, manages, provides and nourishes, and does so with humbleness and humility. The husband is expected to consult his wife, especially in relation to family matters, and to respect and value her opinion.” Good advice for any prospective husband, if you ask me.

Moe Dog Jihad?

Hate crime? Give me a freakin break. Allah fubar.  Note phone number - 867-5309 Now that's funny. ("Lost pet" owner must be my generation)

Lost "Mohammed" Dog Poster Left in Front of Muslim Store..... hat tip EJO

Moe_dog

This happened in Lewiston, Maine, the same place where a ham steak left on a lunch bag was investigated as a hate crime. Check out the phone number on the poster, Tommy Tutone now wanted for questioning....

LEWISTON (NEWS CENTER) -- Members of the Somali community in Lewiston say a poster put up in front of a local Somali owned store is an insult to their religion

The poster depicts a vicious "lost" dog named Mohammed. That's the name of the Muslim prophet. It says that the dog is not good with children and can't be trusted. (I like their sense of humor -ed.)

Hussein Ahmed, the owner of the store, says the phone number on the poster is fake and that the only place it was put up was right near his business.

"This is really a religious statement," said Hussein Ahmed, "that is an attack on our religion which we don't feel comfortable with. We see this as a very bad insulting situation."

Ayn Rand at 100: "Yours is the Glory"

  • Aynrandstamp_1

  • Speaking to the unnamed, unchampioned, beating heart of her new land, Ayn was to say: 'Yours is the glory.'"
    A man whose ability and independence leads others to reject him, but who perseveres nevertheless to achieve his values. Man as an individual, as a creator. What's the most depraved type of human being? Not a sadist or a murderer or a sex maniac or a dictator; "The man without a purpose." Yet most people seem to go through their lives without a clearly defined purpose.


Barter


  • Life has Loveliness to sell,
    All beautiful and splendid things,
    Blue waves whitened on a cliff,
    Soaring fires that sways and swing,
    And children's faces looking up,
    Holding wonder like a cup

    Life has Loveliness to sell,
    Music like a curve of Gold,
    Scent of pinetrees in the rain,
    Eyes that love you, arms that hold,
    And for your spirit's still delight,
    Holy stars that star the night.

    Spend all you have for loveliness,
    Buy it and never count the cost;
    For one white singing hour of Peace
    Count many a year of strife well lost
    And for a breath of ecstasy
    Give all you have been, or could be.
