A Child Protection Nazi Hissy Fit

Steve Irwin, that Aussie wingnut who plays fast and loose with poisonous snakes, crocs and gators, has child protection Nazis in a tizzy. Around the world, pictures of his latest stunt have tongues wagging on news spew in every conceivable language.

'...During a packed show at Irwin's Australian Zoo reptile park Irwin held his new [one month old] son Bob in one arm while using his other to dangle a dead chicken in front of a 13 foot crocodile...' (Ananova)

Even Gloria Allred is going off on Steve and she's one untamed critter that even this fearless croc hunter can't handle. Watch your back, Aussie dude, because Gloria is hard core.

Enforcing Immigration Laws in Singapore
Source: Hindustani Times

Unlike the Lapdog, Singapore officials don't whine about illegal immigrants' tragic fate then throw up their hands in defeat. When they catch somebody violating their immigration laws, they administer a harsh lesson that commands all would be immigration law violators' undivided attention.

Fourteen Dothead workers who overstayed their officially sanctioned welcome got a harsh lesson, one they won't soon forget:

'...after being rounded up for overstaying, Indians, particularly Tamils, were stripped down to their underwear and forced to live in the compound of the immigration office in Singapore. They were not even allowed to bathe or shave. "We spent three months in jail where we were whipped and then our heads were shaved before we were deported," said Chandrabose, another Indian worker. The workers' savings were taken from them and their suitcases smashed by the authorities, the workers complained..' (Hindustani Times)

If only we could do something like that here. Round up a some border jumpers - grabbing them from Hell-A's illegal immigrant-intensive 18th Street Gang is a great place to start - strip them, shave their heads, then cane them, daily, until they get the big god damn picture: Get the hell out, border jumping scum and don't think about coming back or we'll really get nasty will you. How do you say 'gelding' in Spanish?

Pothead Paradise

Canadian drug Nazis found what might be a world record indoor pot farm when they invaded a three story, 11,250 square meter building that once housed a Molson brewery. It's safe to assume that the street price for pot is going to spike, with this operation closed for business. Smoke 'em if you've got em, but be prepared for sticker shock when you need to restock, pothead Sparky.

All The Comforts Of Home

A Rosary True Believer priest caught with his pants down, doing the nasty with a 15-year-old isn't exactly breaking news, but this epic has an unexpected twist. We're not told when the Italian padre hooked up with his teenage playmate, but we do know that he arrived in Jamaica 8 years ago and has been living with the teenager long enough to make some homemade kiddie porn.

'...A Roman Catholic priest has been defrocked after allegedly being caught living with an underage girl in central Jamaica. (Ananova)...'

Since the cops couldn't bag the wench, they weren't able to charge the padre, so they did the next best thing. They ratted him out to Rosary True Believer headquarters in Rome and the dirt kisser had the priestly pervert on a plane home in a heartbeat. That's all well and good, but I have one pesky problem: What the hell is a priestly pervert doing with a female? Enquiring minds want to know.

Technological Terror Strikes Malaysia
Source: AP

The phrase 'technology jumped up and bit me on the butt' is too close to home for a Malaysian named Mohamed Radzuan Yesin. Everything went swimmingly, up to a point, when he laid down for a nap with his cellphone at his side, in recharge mode. Three hours passed uneventfully, until something when Ôboom' in the night:

"The explosion scalded my buttocks, while there were burn marks on the mattress and the wall," Mohamed Radzuan told Bernama news agency. "At first I was confused about what had exploded, but I realized it was my mobile phone when I saw it was shattered in pieces."...(AP)

Thanks to his explosive communications technology, our hero will be sleeping on his stomach for a while. Admittedly, cell phones - more precisely, the bellowing idiots who own them - get on my last raw nerve, but at least I can sleep on my back at night. Neener, neener, neener, Malaysian dude.

Afterthoughts
If some bellowing asshat has his phone self-destruct while he's destroying my lunch, I'm not going to rush over to help him. I'm going to laugh like a mental patient then resume eating my meal in peace.

Brit Bathroom Blows Up
Source: Reuters

A Brit public toilet became an open air facility - a literal porta-potty - when an underground high voltage line exploded beneath it. The roof - plus assorted other 'debris' best left unspecified' - went flying, making this a multi-faceted sensory treat for anyone within the blast area. Only those wacky Brits dare to turn nature's call into a 'do you fell lucky, punk' class adventure. Nice try, Brit dudes, but if I'm in London and feel the need, I'll wait until I get back to my room.

Lost, Found, Oops!

A Brazilian dude who lost two valuable items in the local bus station did the - allegedly - rational thing and reported his loss to the bus station cops. Happily, the cops had his lost luggage. Unhappily, they also had the weed our hero stuffed into his baggage. Book him, Dano. Stupidity in the first degree.

Sushi Slammer Inspiration

True story time...Japanese officials advised their peace keeper dudes to grow mustaches so they can blend in with the Iraqi locals. Do they really think that Iraqi citizens are so over the top about lip dusters that they won't notice those tattletale squinty eyes? I way don't think so, Tim-San.

Pious Pakistani Perverts
Source: Telegraph (UK)

When a Muslim cleric at his Islamic school hit on a teenage lad, the Pakistani hormone gorilla shot down the pervert, prompting this Mecca Maniac 'holy man' to threaten the 14-year-old. Unimpressed, the lad ignored his teacher's warning and stopped attending the school. Ashamed over the incident, the lad didn't even tell his parents or friends, at the time, but they all know about it now, leading us to our tragic, Paul Harvey Moment:

'...A few days later, as he played with his brothers and sister at home, he said that his religious teacher - accompanied by three associates - broke into the house, bolted the door and threw acid over him, screaming: "This should be a lesson for your life."...' (Telegraph)

When the lad's incensed father tried to report the teacher to the Mecca Maniac school, school officials were far from sympathetic to the lad's plight. Instead, they tried to bribe daddy with promise to get the teacher to fork over whatever passes for money in Pakistan. When papa refused, the Mecca Maniacs forced at least one hospital to kick the scarred for life lad out, then threatened the father's life. Having seen Mecca Maniac abuse on his own son's disfigured face, papa took his entire family into hiding.

Peace loving Mecca Maniacs? Don't make me laugh. When a perverted Muslim cleric violates his own religious code, all the relevant religious authorities care about is sweeping the potential scandal under the proverbial rug. Let's hear the CAIR punks explain this one away...Still waiting...Someone....Anyone? I didn't think so, hypocritical assclowns.

Sushi Slammer Crash Dummy

A story about a Nissan Motor Company executive - Nissan President Carlos Ghosn - getting into a car crash is only moderately ironic. What makes this story breaking news is the stop the presses fact that he was driving a Porsche. The aforementioned tidbits compel this pagan scribbler to pose two burning questions: Why is Nissan's number one dude driving a Kraut ride?

How did a dude named 'Carlos' get to be President in this Sushi Slammer company?

Neutering The Tome
Source: Reuters

A Brit Cross Cult cabal dubbed 'the Church of England', just trilled Blood-Soaked Tome purists spitless when they decided to render the Blood-Soaked Tome more inclusive. In a move that must have fundamentalists praying for instant smiting, a committee tasked with revising the cabal's prayer book, decreed that 'the term "Magi" was a transliteration of the name used by officials at the Persian court, and that they could well have been women' (Reuters). That easily, the venerable 'Three Wise Men' got the hook, making way for the much more inclusive term Magi.

'...The revision committee said: "While it seems very unlikely that these Persian court officials were female, the possibility that one or more of the Magi were female cannot be excluded completely."...' (Reuters)

How Korrect are the Brits? Very and that's a no shit fact. Soon after the story broke, I caught Pat Robertson's take on this Tome revision. Suffice it to say, he went postal, big time, and who can blame him. Is this stuff asinine? You bet. Is this the most asinine thing about the Tome? No damn way...It's not even close. I'll let each holy roller decide what changes - if any - to make to their Nativity scenes, next December.

Afterthought:
This three wise wenches bovine excrement has at least one silver lining. It could generate a healthy sales spike for Nativity scene manufacturers. Traditionalists will rush out to get the wise dude version, while more enlightened, inclusive holy rollers will want to bag their very own wise wench Nativity. Ka-Ching!

Devilish Doings

A cabal - I am not making this up - called 'The International Association of Exorcists' took one look at recent event in Caronia, Sicily and pronounced the inexplicable events Satanic. How else, they thunder, do you explain 'the spontaneous combustion of washing machines, dishwashers, refrigerators, electricity meters and cables' (Guardian)? Before you jump to the obvious - power grid malfunction - answer, you need to know that the area in question has been 'off line' since January 4. Also, the locals claim that a chair and a water pipe erupted into flames, within the past few days.

Rational adults opine that some - as yet, undetermined - electrical source is the cause, prompting those with functional synapses to check out the nearby railroad line and cell phone towers in the area. Despite that, the exorcists smell a giant Satanic rat in the village woodpile. If, for the sake of argument, we accept this the Devil did it notion, I'm left with the pesky question: Why is he playing these small potatoes tricks on a rustic blight in Sicily? Given the world situation, he must have much bigger fish to fry. What, exactly, elevates Caronia onto the horned demon's radar? Enquiring pagan minds want to know.

Instant Justice

When a South African mother caught a 26-year-old shitbag raping her 5 year old daughter, she administered a suitable punishment on the rapist, aided by other outraged citizens.

'...[the rapist] was dragged out and assaulted before being castrated. "He was found in a pool of blood with his penis cut off," said [police spokesman Zithini] Dlamini. "No one is talking and the police are asking around but no one is prepared to say anything. We don't even know what type of sharp object was used."

South African justice system officials aren't thrilled spitless over this wang whacking justice, but they'll get over it. This rapist won't ever do it again, and that sounds like real justice to this pagan.

Inspired Countermeasures

Israeli officials are poised to shield public busses from Palestinian homicide bombers by taking a page from the Mecca Maniac supernaturalist's playbook. It's as simple as putting bags of pig lard in each bus.

'...Authorities believe that the move could discourage Palestinians from carrying out attacks as pieces of their exploded body could come into contact with the pig fat, prejudicing their chances of entering into paradise...' (AFP)

Boom! Holy exploding pig lard, Batman! Unclean, unclean! No virgins! That works just fine for me. Will it work? I don't know, but it should. If homicide bombers are motivated by the supernaturalist drivel about 72 virgins, then the same intellectual flatliners gotta believe that pig lard on their corpse banishes them from their virgin-intensive afterlife.

Surrender Monkey Science
Source: Washington Times (3/20)

Two French dudes handed fat Nazis a nasty shock in their 'new guide to eateries, food brands and markets of France' (Washington Times).  Deemed "dietary researchers" by this D.C. fishwrap, Jean-Michel Cohen and Patrick Serog have Amerika's obesity brigade scratching their heads, thanks to their praise for an Amerikan fast food icon.

'...A pair of French nutritionists have given a spirited oui to McDonald's traditional "Big Mac" and classic cheeseburger, declaring the American fare more healthy to eat than scandalously rich quiche and other traditional French dishes...'  (Washington Times)

Big Mac fans rejoice and eat those french fries with pride, because your visit to Ronald McDonald's burger stand is Surrender Monkey cool.  I am, in this case, amused in the extreme.

Canada Korrectly

The bright bulbs running a maximum security Canadian prison reached for stupidity's brass ring when the announced that allowing prison guards to wear 'stab-proof' - kevlar - vests gave inmates a boo-boo on their fragile psyche.  Here's the relevant jaw-dropping quote:

"...If you have that kind of presence symbolized by (a stab-proof vest), you're sending a signal to the prisoner that you consider him to be a dangerous person," said Tim Krause, an official at the prison. (Tongue Tied)

Prison guards dare to consider an inmate in a maximum security prison "dangerous"?  I'm shocked, shocked I tell you.  I'm shocked that an intellectual flat-liner like Krause runs anything more meaningful than a lemonade stand.  Of course they're dangerous, shit for brains.  They didn't land in your maximum security gray bar hotel for being boy scouts.

Mecca Maniac Tolerance
Source: Reuters   [3/19]

A Mecca Mania mob in 'moderate' Bahrain went true believer postal in a French restaurant because the sinful eatery sullied their precious supernaturalism by - gasp - serving alcoholic adult beverages.  In addition to threatening diners with knives, they torched cars in the eatery's parking lot...for the greater glory of their deity, no doubt.

'..."Abound 100 young men, shouting Allahu Akbar (God is greatest), came to the restaurant carrying knives and shouted at the customers: Why do you drink?," Jahanshah Bakhtiar, owner of La Terrasse Restaurant, told Reuters.  "They were acting as if they had the right ideas and people should obey them."...'  (Reuters)

If this is how true believers act in an allegedly 'pro-Western' Mecca Maniac enclave, how do you think individual liberty fares where Mecca Maniac reign supreme?  Mecca Mania and tolerance are mutually-exclusive terms.  Don't take my word for it...Ask besieged individualists in Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Iran, or Pakistan.   

Haitian Hubbub

The instant deposed/self-exiled Haitian President Jean-Bertrand Aristide got his first look at a dark continent blight called the Central African Republic in broad daylight, he started phoning his friends claiming - in essence - "I was robbed". According to such unbiased, melanin-enriched observers as Maxine Waters and self-exiled ethnocrat Amerika hater, Randall Robinson, Aristide insists he 'was kidnapped at gunpoint by American soldiers and ousted by a U.S. coup d'etat' (Sun-Sentinel). I'm shocked...shocked I tell you. Do Randall, Jean-Bertrand and Maxine really think we're that simple? Wake up and smell the Haitian rebellion coffee, ethnocrat whiners.

Sand Surfer Stupidity
Source: Stealth News Wire [03/01]

Hard core reality show junkies probably know that 'Big Brother' spawned franchises in the UK, Africa and most unlikely of all, the Middle East. Perpetrated in Bahrain, 'Arab Big Brother', accommodated Sandy Surfer supernaturalism with 'a prayer room and separate sleeping quarters for men and women' (ABC). This futile attempt to appease the local supernaturalists failed so miserably, the show shut down almost immediately, because the Sand Monkey horde deemed it 'a threat to Islam'.

Setting aside my instincts to demand a sanity screening for this show's producers, I'm left with one pesky question. After enduring the past 14 turbulent centuries, is Mecca Mania so damn fossilized that something as innocuous as Arab Big Brother will shatter it into a million pieces? Enquiring pagan minds want to know.

Criminalizing Puberty
Source: BBC [4/30]

Brit Korrectnik asshats took Nanny State bovine excrement to the next level when they decided to protect children - from each other - via a new edict that criminalizes hormonal, adolescent fumbling.  This brain-fart is embedded  in some new Brit legicrap - the Sexual Offenses Act - and it's a doozy.  Sexual activity perpetrated with/by anyone under 16 includes:

'...Sexual touching, the Act says, includes doing it "with any part of the body", "with anything else", and "through anything". Depending on one's definition, that could technically include snogging as well as the gamut of sexual activities that teenagers often get up to. The guidance notes from the government say it could include "where a person rubs up against someone's private parts through the person's clothes for sexual gratification"...' (BBC)

If you follow the hack breadcrumbs through the convoluted alleged logic, you're headed for a major migraine.  In essence, the adolescent fumbling ban is symbolic.  Brit officials can't - won't - sanction adolescent slap and tickle, but, they won't stage a full court press to enforce the ban either.  If you're nabbed 'running the bases' and the relevant authority likes you, you're home free.  If, however, you're nabbed for violating the ban and the relevant authority  doesn't like you, you're on the fast track to becoming and official Brit sex criminal.  The same scenario plays out when some responsible adult doesn't like the company their under 16 offspring is keeping.  The disputed boyfriend or girlfriend is at risk, from any grudge-nursing parent.

I'm guessing that when this legicrap takes effect, a cop's hottie daughter is the last wench on the planet a Brit hormone gorilla will pick for a backseat playmate.  She'll qualify for Brit Social Security before a dude lays a pinky on her.  Anyone 'up' for a long, cold shower?

Afterthought
This quote from the writeup says it all:

"With this on the statute book, it will give police and prosecutors a lot of discretion. It could be used as a way of controlling kids who perhaps the police want to control for other reasons. Kids who perhaps are a nuisance or who belong to a group who attract the attention of the police in some way."  (Professor Nicola Lacey of the London School of Economics as quoted by BBC)

Decency Down Under
Source: Ananova    [4/25]

Amerika's ongoing decency dementia antics inspired a copycat response down under.  Unlike Boobgate, this Aussie boob tube turmoil involves words that gave an Aussie true believer a boo-boo on his supernaturalism.

'...An Australian evangelical Christian is suing a television channel after an episode of Prime Suspect used "Jesus Christ" as a swear word...'  (Ananova)

This Aussie assclown would be thrilled spitless by this Pagan scribbler's purple prose.  If the occasional "Jesus Christ" is all it takes to ruin his day, my profanity-riddled prose would probably give him a heart attack.  Hmm.  Food for thought...

Mecca Maniac Family Values
Source: World Net Daily   [4/23]

Honor killing continues to make the family home a dangerous place for Mecca Maniac females.  One false move might prompt a male relative to restore family honor by butchering his mother, sister, daughter, niece or aunt.  Last year, 17 women were honorably murdered in Jordan and, this year, 5 more were dispatched by honor seeking male relatives.

World Net Daily cites the following examples:

'...A Muslim Jordanian man stabbed to death his pregnant sister because she married an Egyptian man against the family's wishes...'

'...last September two sisters were hacked to death by their Muslim brothers in Jordan in an "honor killing" that came one day after the country's parliament rejected a bill imposing tougher sentences for the crime.

That same month, a Muslim Kurdish refugee living in the UK was sentenced to life in prison for murdering his 16-year-old daughter because she had started a relationship with a Lebanese Christian boy and had become too "westernized."...'   (WND)

Anthropologists who study this fun Mecca Maniac outrage estimate that dozens - perhaps hundreds - of woman are butchered this way, annually.  Demonstrating how twisted Mecca Mania is, the honor-restoring killers rarely get punished for their honorable butchery.   That noxious scent assaulting your nostrils is wafting up from Mecca Maniac  reverence for the individual liberty of their womenfolk.

Afterthought
Nothing demonstrates the stark differences between Mecca Mania and cross cultism like this honor-seeking mayhem. The ubiquitous Mecca Mania defenders at CAIR will blither about Mecca Mania tolerance until the camels come home, but don't hold your breath waiting for them the condemn honor killing.  It's ironic that, for all its notorious deficiencies and despite its bloody history, Tome-revering cross cultism doesn't promote honor killing as a family value.

The Latest Brit Korrectnik Brain-Fart
Source: Tongue Tied [4/22]

The English National Opera just Emerilized their sexual harassment policy by boldly going where no rational adult would dream of going.  Korrectniks reading the Pagan prose will be thrilled to learn that the following represents cutting edge Brit Korrectness:

'...The new guidelines ban 'suggestive remarks or lewd conduct that denigrates or ridicules or is intimidatory or physically abusive of an employee because of their sex, which is derogatory, or insults which are gender related.'  It continues: 'The use of affectionate names such as 'darling' will also constitute sexual harassment.'... (Tongue Tied)

Banning 'darling' is major league asinine and you can quote me.  Wouldn't it be much simpler if Korrectniks simply banned the entire English language and decreed that everyone communicate with grunts.  If it was good enough for the first mutated ape, it's gotta be okey dokey in the twenty-first century.  Why do these Korrectniks annoy us with these half measures.  Why don't they each for the Korrectnik brass ring by emulating the Saudis and forcibly segregate the sexes?

The Renault Hottie Adventure

Reuters reports that a horny-to-the-max Rhino named Sharka got hormonal over a certain Renault Laguna that was touring the randy rhino's Brit safari park home.  Unable to resist the saucy French conveyance, Sharka mounted the surrender monkey ride for some action-packed, rhino-Renault humping.  Eventually, dented and missing a few minor parts, the four-wheeled French siren drove off, with her unrequited suitor in hot pursuit.

The name of Sharka's paramour is being withheld, to safeguard its reputation.

Kiwi Sheep Shearing
Source: New Zealand Herald [4/17]

Slavish devotion isn't the only reason that cross cult padres call true believers 'sheep'.  Proving that the true believer sheep metaphor is apt on a several fronts, two ethically- flexible Amerikan fast talkers capitalized on true believer credulity and pocketed a nifty $4.8 million in Kiwi funny money. 

The fleecing, as this Kiwi fishwrap so cleverly put it, began when a cross cult dude named Donald Eugene Allen 'a founder of the Good Fight of Faith Church used his motivational preaching skills to work the crowd' (Herald).  Once the sheep were primed for shearing Paul Eugene Palmer took over to demonstrate the skills that earned him a 9 year stretch in a stateside gray bar hotel for tax fraud.  When the hot air reached critical mass, the sheep gave, big damn time, and who can blame them with these two smooth talkers spouting whoppers about an investment with a 431 percent annual return.

Palmer won't be available for Kiwi justice, for a while, but Rev. Don got nailed this week for fraud and will, undoubtedly, be offered accommodations in a Kiwi gray bar, at his June sentencing.  Can I get a big 'amen' from the congregation? 

Artistic Revenge

A Brit artist exacted an inspired revenge on the 'biscuit company' [government cess-schooled dolts might not know that 'biscuit' is Brit for a cookie] that fired him but, the company didn't catch on, until it was much too late.  This outraged artist added some nifty elements to the artwork decorating the tin containers for 'Ginger Nuts' biscuits.  In addition to the usual elements required by the 'genteel garden scene', (Ananova) the artist added a frisky couple 'romping in the bushes', two dogs locked in sexual combat, and assorted other non-regulation goodies.

According to Ananova, tens of thousands of the tins eluded the company's quality control and found their way to grocery shelves.  One naughty tin is slated for auction where it's expected to pull in at least £250 (About $375 in dead presidents).  As revenge goes, it don't get much sweeter than this.  Kudos to this outraged artist are eagerly conferred.

A 48-year-old Kraut woman sued candymaker Haribo because her obsession with their Matador liquorice candy gave her a heart condition and the pygmy winkie justice system is poised to agree with this alleged human.  I'm sorry I missed the woman's compelling testimony about Haribo corporate officials holding a Luger to her head, forcing her to eat 400 grams of liquorice candy over a four month period.  It's a three-hanky tale and that's a no shit fact.

Personal responsibility is as dead in Europe as it is here and the clowns holding the smoking gun belong to the shyster plague.  I am so profoundly unamused it can't be quantified.

Thought Police Chronicle

Amerikan Thought Police antics reek so majorly that even the Canadians are complaining about the stench.  Canadian warbler, Alanis Morissette bitch-slapped the FCC asshats - big damn time - while hosting Canada's annual music awards show.  Wearing a skin-colored bodysuit featuring 'cartoonish fake nipples and pubic hair' (Drudge), she laid a smackdown on Amerika's Thought Police: '...we live in a land where we still think the human body is beautiful and we're not afraid of the human breast' (Drudge).

Ms. Morissette is steamed because the decency bonkers dimwits running Amerikan boom box stations refused to play her song, until she changed the word 'asshole'.  Asinine?  You bet, on several levels.  It's a dark day for individual liberty when socialist-plagued, terminally-korrect Canada confers more liberty than we do.

A Brit fashion punk has UK Holy Roller knickers in a wad with a daring advertisement for his new T-shirt line.  Inspired by Mel Gibson's cross dude epic, designer Alec Stacey has true believer tongues wagging over his nifty new advertising photo.

'...The photograph features former Page 3 model Debbie Turpin, 23, on a cross with Liverpool's Roman Catholic Cathedral in the background and bears the caption "Don't sacrifice your style".  Liverpool-born model Ms. Turpin is covered by just a T-shirt printed with the logo and her tortured facial expression has been described as reminiscent of the controversial Mel Gibson movie, The Passion Of The Christ...'
(Echo)

With holy rollers throughout England yammering about his ad campaign, Alec is laughing all the way to the bank. It's called free publicity, outraged Holy Roller whiners.  I wonder if 'gotcha' sounds as sweet when it's wrapped in a Brit accent.  Enquiring minds want to know.

Sand Rat Brain-Fart

Spewing his Mecca Maniac...wisdom from Mecca's Grand Mosque, a Sand Rat cleric has the inside scoop - direct from his deity, no doubt - on the drought plaguing Saudi Arabia.  The root cause for the drought has nothing to do with changing weather patterns or global warming.  Nope, this dude pinned the blame on 'sinfulness, including women who unveil themselves or mingle with men' (AP).  

Fear not, loyal readers, our visionary true believer has the answer: Mecca Maniacs need to purify themselves and their behavior, then pray to their deity ask him for forgiveness.  Undoubtedly, he expects these errant, liberty-seeking Saudi women to do the heavy lifting when it comes to purifying and begging forgiveness.  Sand Rat sexism is alive and well in the Saudi Sandbox.

The Sand Box has a draught?  How the hell can they tell the difference.  Color this smartass Pagan confused.

MAY 2004

Some European Fun Facts:
Source: Ananova [5/31]

This Brit news service served up the following too cool for school fun Euro facts:

Item 1:

A Scottish group promoting local industry wore specially made t-shirts to prod Scottish school kids into supporting Scottish firms. The t-shirts that read "Make it in Scotland" were made in Morocco. That resounding "splat" is Scottish bovine excrement hitting the proverbial fan.

Item 2:

Thanks to the E.U. and the whole "greater Europe" scheme, petty tyrants in one country's bureaucracy get to bully capitalists throughout the E.U. An excellent example just floated to the surface when Italy's agriculture department issued rules and regulations specifying what constitutes a pizza. If your allegedly Italian eats don't match the following in every particular, it ain't "pizza":

'...In order to be labeled a pizza, it must be three millimetres thick in the middle, have a one to two centimetre thick crust and have been cooked at 450 degrees centigrade. The diameter should not exceed 35 centimetres...' (Ananova)

Inspectors are trained, deployed and ready to kick ass, levy fines then take names. Attention E.U. pizza palaces: Big Brother is watching. This is not a drill.

Item 3:

Am I the only dude on the planet who didn't realize that playing air guitar is a world-spanning obsession? The Krauts are - very, politely, no doubt - forming a national air guitar federation. They're eager to compete in the Air Guitar World Championships scheduled for later this year in Finland.

It's a damn good thing the Krauts outlawed insults, before they hatched this insult-inviting brain-fart.

Item 4:

New E.U. regulations make it a crime for a butcher to give leftover bones to a dog-owning customer. According to these regulation-bonkers Euro bureaucrats, bones are a "waste product". Therefore, instead of giving Fido his favorite bone snack, the butcher must pay to have these bones incinerated.

The more I hear about this "Greater Europe" scheme, the more it sounds like the Nanny State on steroids.

A Kinder, Nad-less Fatherland

Believe it or not, insulting some congenital asshat is a crime in the Pygmy Winkie Fatherland. Last year, 164,848 Kraut rudeniks were prosecuted for insulting words and/or gestures.

'...Most of the offences were committed in sign language — gestures that are documented in a catalogue kept by public prosecutors. They range from the mild — tapping the forehead to suggest someone is crazy — to the extremely vulgar raised middle finger...' (Sun)

When, exactly, did this perpetual European bully turn into a nation populated by hypersensitive wimps? If master race grunting gives these Krauts a psychological boo-boo, I don't dare imagine how they'd handle insultology's Big Apple big leagues.  Bold new concept.

Hmm. Scratch Germany from this pagan's vacation destination list. My notoriously colorful communications style would get me arrested in a heartbeat.

Kiwi Korrectnik Kaper
Source: New Zealand Press Association [5/27]

The spoilsports on the Kiwi Advertising Standards Board deep sixed an ad guaranteed to command every red-blooded horndog's undivided attention. Humor, apparently, is dead in New Zealand:

'...an advertisement for Cool Charm deodorant...depicted a female dental nurse wearing a revealing uniform, applying the product while listening to the dentist repeatedly asking an adolescent boy to "open wider". In the next scene the nurse walked into the surgery and leaned over the patient, revealing her cleavage, causing the boy to open his mouth wider....' (NZPA)

These humor-challenged ad censors claim that this attention grabbing ad 'was blatant exploitation of a woman's body to sell a product' (NZPA). No shit Sherlock, but what, exactly is so bad about that? It's called capitalism...You know, that marketplace stuff you Korrectniks hate so damn much.

Another Brit Korrectnik Caper
Source: Tongue Tied [5/26]

Hate crime bonkers Brits added the villainous phrase "bloody foreigners" to the Brit hate speech list, thanks to the nation's High Court. It all began when a Brit hormone gorilla Emerilized his vandalism to hate crime status when he shouted the aforementioned evil words while breaking a Turkish shop owner's store window. The Brit judges deemed this punk's thoughts more important that his actions, proving that irrationality now dominates the Brit High Court.

'...The high court ruled that to face the tougher charges, all that was necessary was for the defendant "to demonstrate towards the victim hostility based on the victim's membership, or presumed membership, of a racial group."...' (Tongue Tied)

When a lawbreaker's thoughts elicit harsher punishment than his, her or its actions, it's time for sovereign individuals to man the barricades. Make no mistake, criminalizing thought is the express lane to tyranny.

Today several UK stories made the Pagan cut. In no particular order, here they are:

Brit Korrectniks dissed an asinine, feel good, Nanny State notion - MadforArts - for all the wrong reason. For those who care, MadforArts is described as follows:

'...MadforArts aims to provide a multimedia online forum for people with mental health issues to express their views on art, architecture and music...' (Tongue Tied)

An irrational notion like a taxpayer funded artsy-fartsy chatroom for clinically bonkers Brits doesn't faze Brit Korrectniks in the least. But, naming it "MadforArts" is unforgivable. What if - gasp - this name gave some sanity-challenged Brit a psychological boo-boo? I'm shocked, shocked I tell you.

Item 2:

Brit bureaucrats hatched a nifty scheme to shorten hospital waiting lists with a notion that is inspired, in the extreme. It's the brainchild of a Brit socialized medical cabal named 'Tobay Primary Care Trust' and it involves this health cabal paying its doctors £100 (approx. $150 in dead presidents) for every patient the doctor doesn't send to the hospital.

Sending patients home instead of the hospital is socialized medicine's bold new frontier. Is this "you're sick, go home and die" scheme coming to a hospital near you? Absolutely, if John Kerry, Hillary Clinton and Teddy Kennedy get their way. Stay tuned...

Item 3

A Brit legicrat from Durham, England went publically postal in Parliament when "bad" referee calls cost his soccer team home boys - Sunderland - a badly needed victory in the playoff's semifinals. We're told that this is a very big deal, because a victory might get Sunderland promoted to a higher - more lucrative $ - league. Unwilling to deploy the stiff upper lip celebrated in Brit mythology, MP Gerry Steinberg ran a non-binding resolution up the Legicrap flagpole:

'...Steinberg's motion read: "This House... believes that the standard of English refereeing is appalling as seen every week in football grounds and on television where inconsistent and wrong decision are made by incompetent...referees."...' (Reuters)

Reuters puts the tab for Sunderland's loss at 20 million in Brit funny money. That's serious boodle, for sure, but no shit none of the government's business. Sunderland - and Steinberg - must get over it, then hope for - work harder to attain - better results on the playing field...next year. Your home boys lost, Steinberg dude, so stop whining about it. Don't make me come over there.

The UK continues to be a way fun place where irrationality reigns supreme. So be it.

A Bold New Brit Notion

A Brit fat Nazi - Dr. Simon Minkoff - has a thrilling new plan to shrink those expanding Brit waistlines. He - I am not making this up - wants the government to mandate 'narrow doors' on all Brit fast food emporiums.

"Over-eating is not good for you — we want the Government to show that it is tough on obesity by fitting narrow doorways." (Simon Minkoff as quoted in the Sun)

Apparently, this Brit bright bulb never heard of that ubiquitous fast food emporium fixture: the drive up window. Close, but no cigar, quack dude.

Profile Of A Wingnut
Source: Telegraph (UK) [05/02]

When the Evil Empire fell apart like a cheap suit, one fragment became an Oz-like realm named, Turkmenistan. Leading his fledgling nation deeper into the Twilight Zone, Saparmurat Niyazov established a Chairman Mao-class cult of personality. Niyazov is a real piece of work, an all powerful wingnut whose every whim sends his people scrambling to comply with his latest brain-fart. His most recent pronouncement dissed the gold plated teeth - once a source of great individual pride - prompting this gold mouth decor to disappear like Krispy Kremes at a wide load convention.

As irrational as this sounds, it's SOP for this Central Asian Oz:

'...Niyazov's dental crackdown is the latest in a series of follies and caprices on the part of Turkmenistan's absolute ruler. He is infamous for declaring July 10 a public holiday in honour of melons - one of the country's main exports - and April 27, Horse Day. He has banned beards because of his suspicion of Islamic fundamentalists and ballet because he deems it unnecessary. Circuses are also prohibited.

He renamed January after himself, and April after his late mother, Gurbansoltanedzhe, who is also portrayed as Justice in a statue outside the Orwellian "Ministry of Fairness"...' (Telegraph)

Don't hold your breath waiting for a popular uprising to topple this tyrannical wingnut, because, he made it a national crime - "parricide" - to criticize or even question his antics. The only way this dude goes away is via a Mao-style old age-induced room temperature transition. Until then Turkmenistan is a pest hole that must be avoided for the sake of your sanity.

Afterthought

Anyone seeking Niyazov's deep thoughts will be thrilled to hear that he wrote a book: 'The Rukhama or Book of the Soul is required reading in all schools and must be kissed by the faithful entering a place of worship...' (Telegraph)

Sharia Bonkers In Nigeria

Deliberately ignoring Nigeria's constitutionally-protected religious freedom, the Governor for Nigeria's Zamfara state is poised to eradicate all non Mecca Maniac religious practices in his state. Lagos-based PM News reports that this way true believer is taking - alleged - Mecca Maniac tolerance to a whole new level:

'...[Governor Ahmed Sani decreed] that his govenment would soon embark on demolition of all places of worship of unbelievers in the state, in line with Islamic injunction to fight them wherever they are found...' (PM News)

This Mecca Maniac zealot deems this bovine excrement "phase two" in his quest for state-imposed Sharia law. Big, big fun.

As Draconian as his shenanigans are, we must ask ourselves the salient question. Are his asinine, liberty-destroying antics any different than those perpetrated by any other true believer who imposes his supernaturalism through government coercion? Not really. If there's a difference it's this: Mecca Maniacs are in your face about their theocratic intentions. Could it happen here in Holy Roller infested Amerika? You better believe it, tyranny of the majority Sparky.

When it comes to politically-inspired acrimony, our hacks don't hold a candle to the Tanzanian MP who threatened his hack homeboys with an Islamic death curse if they didn't clean up their acts.  Lets see Teddy, Hillary, Daschel and  all the rest top that!  For those who obsess on such things, here are the nifty details:
'...Masoud Haroub Saidi said he was sickened by government corruption, which is said to be increasing and all other methods had failed. He told parliament that he would use a Koranic verse to make ministers "drop dead" like locusts. However, parliamentary officials would not let him carry out his threat...' (BBC)

Invoking this holy curse crap-o-la is terminally strange, but not unprecedented.  What kicks this epic up several notches is the fun fact that "parliamentary officials" believe this supernaturalist bovine excrement.  What, exactly are they smoking in Tanzania's parliament?

Afterthought
The closest an Amerikan hack got to laying a curse on his hack homeboys happened when V.P. Dick Cheney laid a well-deserved f-bomb on Senator Patrick Leahy.  Given the lib media's chest beating over this bi-partisan exchange, I can't begin to imagine how they'd react if Cheney asked Old Ka-Boom to smite this asshat Senator.

The Stonehenge Saga

Dubbed "a leader of Welsh pagans" by this Brit fishwrap, a bright bulb named Dr. Robyn Lewis wants the Brits to pack up Stonehenge and ship the whole thing to Wales.  His alleged reasoning opines that since "Welsh stones quarried by Welshman" were used to build Stonehenge, that means it belongs in Wales, not England.


When they stopped laughing, the Brits responded - ever so politely, no doubt - with a highbrow "bite me".

"...A spokesman for English Heritage, which manages the stones, said: "When Stonehenge was built more than 3,500 years ago, neither Wales nor England existed as nations. The people who lived on the island had tribal identities, but no national sense of identity."...'  (Western Daily Press)

Whatever Stonehenge's builders called themselves - it damn sure wasn't "Welshmen" - they went out of their way to take the stones quarried in what is twenty-first century Wales to cart the stones to their present location on the Salisbury Plain for a reason.  They put the damn thing exactly where they wanted it, so, Dr. Lewis needs to increase the voltage on his shock treatments and get over himself.

A Brit high school just decreed that their wenchlet inmates are forbidden to wear skirts or dresses to school.  Starting in September, trousers are the only proper wenchlet, classroom attire.  Depending on the overall student booty quality at the school, hormone gorillas attending Kesgrave High School probably won't be thrilled to learn that the jailbait peep show is over.  Gone, forever, are those eye-popping days when they could view a wenchlet hottie's whole...personality, every time she bent over or sat down.  Life just started to suck, Brit dudes.  I feel your pain.

The Dothead heartland is in turmoil - yes, again - because a film director dared to - gasp - sully what passes for culture in India by serving up a movie about two eager to get horizontal and squishy...lesbians.  Alarmed by this shocking assault on their alleged culture, hardline Hindu asshats did what comes naturally.  They whipped the mob into a frenzy, then perpetrated a culturally-enriching riot.

'...Nearly 100 activists of the student's wing of the Shiv Sena group smashed window panes, ripped up posters and burned effigies at a hall screening the Hindi film "Girlfriend" in Bombay, capital of India's prolific movie industry, witnesses said...'  (Reuters)

'...a Muslims on Education policy document calls on the government to roll back mixed-sex classrooms, set aside special prayer rooms for Muslim students, require religious education for all students, mandate religious awareness training for teachers and staff and create special classes on Islamic subjects...'  (Tongue Tied)
Supernaturalists, way lefties, whomever are free to brainwash their own tykes til the cows come home, but not on the taxpayer's pound.  If properly-Muslim schools are so damn vital to your future, then collect the funds and start your own exclusively Mecca Maniac school system.  Otherwise...shut the hell up and sit your asses down.  You don't want me to come over there.

When the officer rousted the car's eagerly squish occupants, he got an unexpected thrill. Instead of hot and bothered teenagers, he found a 45 year old Rosary True Believer Priest drilling, filling and thrilling a 27-year-old Rosary True Believer...Nun.

Rosary True Believer officials were 'unavailable for comment', but the Malawian court wasn't stunned into silence when they handed down 'suspended jail sentences of six months with hard labor' (Reuters).

Hung Out To Dry

Nicosia (Cyprus) denizen Michalakis Zampelas has a lot more than an asinine name on his mind, but, since this dweeb is mayor, his annoyances, become Nicosia's new laws. His Honor is up to here with the fun fact that everywhere he walks, wet laundry is hanging out the windows to dry. Tired of having all those undies - and assorted other garments - dripping on him, he rammed through a new edict that makes letting 'it' all hang out to dry a crime punishable by a hefty fine (50 Cyprus pounds, I'm guessing that's about $75 in dead presidents).

If wet laundry hanging outside to dry is the worst problem facing Nicosia, His Honor should chill out and stop being such an asshat. Like the soon to be fined Nicosia denizens, we are profoundly unamused by this nanny government edict.

Exporting Cross Cult Homophobia

Proving that Holy Roller homophobia isn't an exclusively Amerikan phenomenon, some Bahama's based Cross Cult true believers showed up dockside to protest the arrival of a cruise ship chartered by GLAAD BAAGs and their families.

'...The protesters, led by Christian pastors, gathered in a square in front of the cruise terminal and chanted, "Gay Ways are Not God's Ways!"...' (Sun-Sentinel)

The New Spin On Global Warming

Swiss and German scientists opine that global warming is caused, in part, by the newly documented fact that our Sun started burning hotter about 60 years ago. As thrilling as a brighter Sun might be, on several levels, I'm trying to make that mesh with a story I read last month about 'global dimming'. How can the Sun be hotter and brighter if we're experiencing global dimming? Don't these eggheads talk to each other?

On the global warming front, this Brit fishwrap uncorked this no shit gem from a Brit climate researcher named Dr. Gareth Jones:

"Global warming - at least the modern nightmare version - is a myth. I am sure of it and so are a growing number of scientists. But what is really worrying is that the world's politicians and policy-makers are not. Instead, they have an unshakeable faith in what has, unfortunately, become one of the central credos of the environmental movement: humans burn fossil fuels, which release increased levels of carbon dioxide - the principal so-called greenhouse gas - into the atmosphere, causing the atmosphere to heat up. They say this is global warming: I say this is poppycock." (Telegraph)

I'm guessing that Dr. Jones won't be invited to speak at the Sierra Club before our brighter (dimmer?) Sun burns out.

It won't be taught in the school because I think it's rubbish. It's a bizarre thing to claim the Bible suggests that. Genesis is saying that behind creation is a good God."

"We welcome the interest shown in our stamps. We issued our first Christmas stamp in 1966 and we have varied the design each year since. Although Christmas is a Christian festival we live in a multi-faith society and there is no set pattern in the choice of religious or secular themes and choice of subject matter."  (Guardian)

Holy Cow Spit, Batman!

A Cambodian farmer raised bovine worship to a new level when he claimed that his 13-month-old bovine, Preah,  licked his ailing wife back to perfect health, after they tried and failed, repeatedly, to cure his wife's chronic illness by conventional, medical means.  Since then, as many as 400 people show up, daily, to have this cow slobber on them...for a modest fee, of course.


Here are two satisfied cow spit customers:

'...The couple’s theory was first tested on a 72-year-old visually impaired woman from the village whom [the bovine's owner,] Puch Pich claimed regained her sight after four licks...'

'...Ros Sath, 68, told AFP that before he underwent the unconventional treatment he could barely walk a few metres thanks to a stiff leg. “After the cow licked me four times I felt comfortable again and now I can walk 300 or 400 metres without getting exhausted.”...'  (Daily Times)


There are, it seems, some people the bovine refuses to French Kiss: '...“The cow won’t lick people who don’t put in their money... and if he doesn’t think you believe in his powers, he won’t lick you either,” Puch Pich quipped...'

Hot Handed Brit Quack

Dr. Hossam Bassiouny's medical specialty is strictly above the neck - ear, nose and throat - so why was he asking a 23 year old Swedish woman to strip, so he could grope her breasts and yum-yum?  That's the question he's trying to answer, convincingly, for a Brit medical cabal called the General Medical Council's professional conduct committee.

The Woman's Story:

'...The hearing was told he sent her for a hearing test after checking her ears, throat, nose and neck.  The woman, now 25, said when she returned, he asked if she had "checked herself".  When she complained about a pain in her groin area he asked her to remove her trousers and get on the couch, and after feeling her groin area, he touched her pubic area, she said.  She said Dr Bassiouny then said her breasts should also be checked, told her to remove her top clothing then touched around her breasts...' (BBC)


His Story:

'...Dr Bassiouny, as well as denying professional misconduct, denies asking the woman if she had checked herself lately, or asking her to remove her trousers and get on the couch. [BUT]  He admits examining her groin, but denies touching her beneath her underwear...'

'...He also denies asking if she had examined her breasts recently, or to remove her upper clothing or bra, but admits examining her breasts...' (BBC)

What this horndog quack doesn't explain is why a ear, nose and throat specialist is doing any patient groping, below the shoulders.

A terrorist assclown named Abu Musab al-Zarkawi is finally getting the attention he deserves for murdering - including beheading - innocent civilians.  Already number one with a bullet on Amerika's hit list, he's now getting an inspiring taste of his own medicine from certain Iraqi bad asses.

'...In a videotape sent to the al-Arabiya television station, a group calling itself the “Salvation Movement,” questioned how Mr. al-Zarqawi could use Islam to justify the killing of innocent civilians, the targeting of government officials and the kidnapping and beheading of foreigners.

“He must leave Iraq immediately, he and his followers and everyone who gives shelter to him and his criminal actions,” a man said on the video...'

'...In the video, three men, their faces covered with Arab headscarves, were flanked by rocket propelled grenades and an Iraqi flag. The man speaking had a clear Iraqi accent.

“We swear to Allah that we have started preparing ... to capture him and his allies or kill them and present them as gift to our people.” the man said. “This is the last warning. If you don't stop, we will do to you what the coalition forces have failed to do.”...'  (Globe and Mail)

Given the asinine restrictions hampering Amerikan troops, this Zarkawi assclown has no reason to fear Amerikan retribution. But, these Iraqi "insurgents" aren't saddled with any politically-correct restrictions.  When these Iraqi gang bangers find Abu - and they will - I, for one, don't give a damn how they off this terrorist bastard.

Afterthoughts
Don't you love Amerika's way lefty media and the way they spin this Iraqi terrorism?  In their fevered liberal to the max noggins, a terrorist who beheads a civilian is an "insurgent".  Let the same terrorist behead a vast right-wingnut like Rush, Hannity or Gingrich and these media libs will promote the butchers from "insurgents" to "freedom fighters".

'...Another rule includes women being banned from taking driving lessons with male instructors unless they are accompanied by an immediate male relative...'

'...all clothes stores will be searched for hidden cameras and see-through mirrors in their fitting rooms following complaints from citizens...' (Daily Star)

Every job has its occupational hazards and for most men in blue, directing traffic qualifies. A Brit cop's day got soggy when a driving instructor named Tahir Mahmood couldn't - didn't - avoid a large mud puddle and drenched Pc Anthony Ellison big damn time. Unwilling to shrug off this watery occupational hazard, Pc Ellison flagged down an apologetic Tahir and arrested him under the charge 'driving without consideration for other road users'. That's right, road warriors, this cop ran the dude in on this bullshit charge, then pressed it all the way to court.

The cops are getting hammered by rational adults for wasting the court's time and the taxpayers' money on this happy horse shit, but they're standing firm. Giving aid and comfort to their public payroll homeboys, the Crown Prosecution Service called this case 'appropriate to prosecute'. Will Tahir get nailed for splashing a cop? Stay tuned, because when I know, you'll know.

Turkmenistan In the News

Thanks to the relentless antics perpetrated by their clinically-bonkers President Niyazov, Turkmenistan catapulted to the number one slot on this pagan scribbler's Wingnut Countries list. His latest antics put all the other contenders for this coveted number one slot to shame.

Despite the fact that his desert nation is one of the hottest places on earth, our reality-challenged hero just announced plans to build a new place made entirely of - I am not making this up - ice. That's right, ice, like those funny cubes some people use to chill their Scotch. I'm tempted to ask what this clown is smoking, but I'm not that sure I really want to know.

Turkmenistan Widens It's Lead

Everyone's favorite clinically bonkers head of state, Turkmenistan's President Niyazov, didn't waste any time in his determination to tighten his hold on the number one Wingnut Country slot when he issued an edict banning boob tube talking heads from wearing makeup. Rather than spoil the fun with my inadequate pagan scribbler prose, I'll serve it up in this show-stopping President Niyazov quote:

'..."You put too much make-up on female TV presenters whose faces would be paler without it. Her own, natural color is better. Sometimes you even put make-up on the lads. Then I really cannot tell the two apart," he said at a meeting with cultural and television representatives shown on state TV on Thursday....' (Reuters)

Stay tuned for more stampeding silliness from this rustic pesthole. Like you, I eagerly await President Niyazov's next inspiration.

Holy Cholesterol, Batman!
Source: UPI [08/09]

The Ruby Chip Shop in Glasgow, Scotland, is proud to inflict 'the most dangerous food in the U.K.' on its customers, with a 1000-calorie, 46 fat gram goodie named "The Stonner". The deep-fried pork sausage kebab is quite likely, the sausage from hell and the Ruby Chip Shop can't make enough of the damn things to keep up with the demand. The brisk sales seems to be a 'take your best shot' reaction to the Ruby Chip Shop's health warning: "Due to the severe health damage of this fine dish, we can only supply one Stonner supper per customer per week".

If you crave the ultimate artery clogging cuisine, haul ass to Glasgow and try out the soon to be legendary 'Stonner'. Life in the fast lane? Before you ingest the Stonner, perhaps, but not afterwards.

Mecca Maniac News Briefs

Item 1
It's ironic - and then some - that a controversial religious school named the Islamic Saudi Academy is located in Alexandria, Theocratica (Virginia). Catering to the offspring of Saudi diplomats, this educrap cabal lives down to this pagan's low expectations for Sand Box denizens. Among other things, the usual suspects are shocked, shocked I tell you, that the school teaches it's minds full of mush that 'Judaism and Christianity are false religions'. Am I supposed to be shocked and dismayed?

Supernaturalism is, by its very nature, a 'we're the one true supernaturalist flavor' gig. From this pagan's perspective, the Islamic Saudi Academy is serving up the truth, as they know it. Unless they bag taxpayer bucks from Uncle Sam, this is a non-negotiable 'no harm, no foul' adventure.

Item 2
A United Arab Emirates boob tube talk show host, Sheik Said Al-Zayyati isn't thrilled spitless with certain Mecca Maniac cell idiots. His panties are in a bunch because some Mecca Maniac Cell Idiots program their ring tone to play - gasp - western music like Beethoven or Mozart.

World Net Daily serves up the following Sheik prose:

"My brother, these people [cell phone users], may Allah guide them to the path of righteousness, are destroying our worship," he told viewers. "You circle the Ka'ba, [a holy shrine in Mecca] and the phones do not cease playing Beethoven, Mozart. ..." he said. "This immorality has even penetrated mosques, and therefore we are ask all those who use these devices and bring them into the mosques to be God-fearing. My brother, why don't you put just [makes imitation of simple cell-phone ring] and that's it. Why do you need this [another imitation of ring tone]."

I detest Cell Idiocy, but, this ring tone whining is just plain asinine. Get over it, Sheik dude.

International Driver's Educrap

Today, we have two international driver's educrap stories for your consideration.

Item 1
A Kraut driving instructor who taught 1000 or more master race motorists how to drive, finally owned up to a world class guilty secret. He didn't have a valid driver's license, 'because he was too nervous to retake the test after he failed the first time – 43 years ago' (Reuters). There are times when a simple 'oops' doesn't cut it.

Item 2
From now on, Turkmenistan motorists undergoing driver's license testing will be grilled according to the newly approved driver's license test. Road signs, traffic laws, speed limits and all that car-related crap-o-la are out. From now on, a comprehensive course in Turkmenistan President for life Saparmurat Niyazov's tome "Rukhnama" is the only authorized road to happy motoring.

'..."A 16-hour course of the sacred Rukhnama is one of the most important innovations in the (driving learning) program ... to ensure future drivers are educated in the spirit of high moral values of Turkmenistan's society," the state news agency quoted a Niyazov decree as saying Monday....'

Munich police are on the watch for an especially creative criminal cabal that they're calling the "boob bandits". Targeting Oktoberfest celebrants whose adult beverage intake rendered them susceptible, this group distracts their victim when a 'busty barmaid' flashes her sweater puppies. While the victim gets an eyeful of them heavenly hooters, the other gang members liberate his wallet.

The cops can call this a crime of they want, but, if the hooters are that savory, the thefts sound to this pagan like an 'uncover' charge.

More Sandbox Stupidity
Source: Richmond Times-Dispatch [09/29]

Cell phones with built-in cameras are banned in the Sandbox, because they are "spreading obscenity in Muslim society", according to the Sandbox's top supernaturalist - Sheik Abdul Aziz bin Abdullah Al al-Sheik (try fitting that moniker on a business card). He's shocked, and then some, that these phones are used to photograph - gasp - desert flowers...(cess-schooled dolts will need to know this is a paganism for A-rab women) without their knowledge.

Mecca Maniac men need to grow the hell up and stop blaming women for their own lack of self-control. If a mere glimpse of a female without her body-obscuring moo-moo is enough to send him into an uncontrolled sexual frenzy, it's not her fault. It's the sex-crazed dude who has the problem. Do I need to explain everything?

The Norwegian Air Traffic Jam
Source: Aftenposten (Norway) [09/27]

The moment Norwegian air traffic controllers in Royken heard that Norway's Civil Aviation Administration, Avinor, planned to shut down their center and move the tasks to Sola, the pink slip-phobic air traffic controllers lost their will to work. It's not a strike, they insist, just a shocking decrease in the employees' ability to perform their job at the required levels. The upshot is that they're sitting at their stations like bumps on a log, ignoring the aircraft seeking their professional expertise.

When is a strike, not a strike? When it's done in the name of public safety. Here's how the air controller union spokeshole explained it:

"We apologize for [the airborn traffic jam over Southern Norway] but we focus on safety. I want to praise all of those tough enough to say that they can't manage to work. It is a safety risk to carry on when your head isn't fully on the job." (Royken controller's representative Bendik Heggelund, as quoted by Aftenposten)

Nice try, dude, but your work stoppage sounds like a wildcat strike to this pagan scribbler. Be a man and admit it, shit for brains. Don't make me come over there.

More EU Korrectnik Insanity
Source: Sun (UK) [09/22]

A new EU edict makes it a crime for ' home-owners to stipulate whether they want men or women in their houses' (Sun) when renting out a room. One rational adult pointed out that this same edict would force battered women's shelters to take in men, as well as women. Another rational adult, predicted - quite correctly - that the most likely result from this law would be fewer accommodations put on the market for renters. Both point out that this gender equalizing law extends far beyond accommodations, since it also mandates that men and women must pay the same price for such things as auto insurance and life insurance.

This frontal assault on the marketplace is intolerable, but par for the course when Korrectnik, Marxist zealots control the reins of what passes for government in the EU. The EU continues to outpace our homegrown Korrectniks in their zeal to render all of Europe unliveable, but never fear, their Amerikan Nanny State cohorts are doing their best to make Amerika as miserable as Europe.

Cosmic Ineptitude
A despondent sergeant in the Hiroshima Prefectural Police decided to end it all with a 'bang' due to marital problems, when he tried to shoot himself in the head and missed! Well, he didn't hit himself, but the bullet broke a window in police headquarters and found everlasting repose in a nearby wall.

How, exactly, does a trained with firearms police officer try to shoot himself in the head and miss? It's damn sure Enquiring Minds time in the pagan scribbler bunker.

Terminally...Happy Kiwi Campers
A private Kiwi school raised some eyebrows - big time - when news leaked out that a mega popular science class teaches eager teenage students how to - I am not making this up - brew their own beer. School officials swear that the bottles are never opened by the students, but those parents who want to tempt fate are allowed to come to the school and take home a homemade brewskie sample.

School officials deserve kudos for making science interesting to the students. Can you think of a better way to demonstrate the relevant scientific properties of a process called "fermentation"? I way don't think so, Tim.

Socialism By The Numbers
Source: Reuters [09/17]

Sweden's National Social Insurance Board is shocked by a recent survey's results, because it shows that 40% of Swedes think it's okey dokey to claim state-funded sick leave whenever they're not in the mood to work. The results are worth a quick look, because they are a look into the Amerikan Nanny State's likely future.

For those who obsess on such things, here are some reasons deemed valid sick leave excuses by Swedes:

71% cited family problems
65% cited work-related stress
41% cited on the job conflicts with a boss or co-worker
20% cited a strike by the state-funded child care center workers

Rising costs - sick leave benefits swelled to a hefty 15% of the annual Swedish budget - coupled with lower tax revenues conspired to drown the Sweden's nanny government in red ink. Swedish Nanny State nitwits just did a header into a venerable welfare state truism: Whenever you subsidize a thing - like sick leave - you get more of it. Reality can be such a bitch.

Travel Advisory

Any dude who happens to visit New Zealand and finds himself in a local adult beverage emporium, needs to read the rest of this piece, before he takes a time out between brewskies to drain the weasel. Why? Because some, too clever for his own good, hack found a way to place whiz-activated 'don't drink and drive warnings' inside the adult beverage emporium's urinals.

Here are all the fun facts on this dastardly Kiwi scheme:

'...Signs in the urinals are heat-activated and will display a message when hit by warm liquid. They will say either: "If you drink then don't drive you're a bloody legend" (with a picture of a taxi) or: "If you drink then drive you're a bloody idiot" (with a picture of a wrecked car). The message disappears when the urinal cools down, ready to be re-activated by the next visitor...' (New Zealand Herald)

When a urinal starts flashing messages at me, I'm calling it a night and switching to strong, black java. This is not a drill.

Afterthought:

No 'real' dude would perpetrate an outrage like this, so I'm guessing that this sick, high tech notion sprung from some twisted, NO NAD wench who decided to terrify brewskie loving dudes into sobriety. We are, as usual, unamused in the extreme, because there are certain places where 21st Century technology doesn't belong, and the urinal tops the list.

Winkie Bonkers In Norway

For reasons I won't even try to explain, four Norwegian bright bulbs perpetrated a book about - I'm not making this up - winkies. According to Aftenposten, the book includes "a unique photo project where 100 men are photographed in relaxed and erect state and data on the size, variation according to weight and height, shape, color and more is catalogued and discussed". First the Krauts, now the Norwegians? Is the entire European continent winkie bonkers?

As usual, I have a question...or two about this twisted tome. What motivates a dude to pose for this boner book? No matter how well endowed they might be, most dudes aren't that eager to drop their drawers and flash their nads for...posterity. Who, exactly, is expected to buy this boner book? It's not your garden variety coffee table tome. Color this pagan scribbler puzzled, to the max.

"With regard to preventive strikes on terrorist bases, we will take any action to eliminate terrorist bases in any region of the world..." (General Yuri Baluyevsky as quoted by AFP)

A story that's getting little attention from the Kerry promoting media is the likely fallout from the Russian school massacre. Russia is capital 'P' PISSED and that's not a good thing, if you're a Mecca Maniac terrorist, or someone who coddles them. When it comes to payback for crap like this, Mother Russia tends to be a serious bitch. Unlike kindly Uncle Sam, Mother Russia never learned to play nice. When you piss her off, she will stomp you, early, often, and she'll keep it up, long after you stop resisting her.

Been there...Heard that...Same old story. With the election cycle heating up, you gotta know that if W could nab this terrorist asshat, he would. To this pagan, it's just the same old gonna catch bin Laden canard. How many more times can they cry "wolf", before we stop listening?

Assorted fun facts make the backseat of Bangkok Mass Transit Authority's #12 bus the runaway favorite place to get your ashes hauled. It's so popular that the transit authority started posting notices to discourage the eager to get squishy lovers.

Too polite to simply state, "Get a damn room", the transit authority notices read: "Thai women should preserve old culture about sexual behavior." Why make it so vague when a simple "Keep your legs crossed, darlin" says it all? Must I think of everything?

Compelling International News Nuggets

Item 1
Unable to resist the sweet temptation served up by two brewskie-vending teenage tempresses - the wenches displayed their wares across the street - two horny as Hugh Hefner on mega-viagra Cambodian Buddhist monks dropped their chastity vows like a bad habit. In addition to dressing better - no more orange moo-moos - the two defrocked monks are, happily, getting horizontal and squishy with their hotties, a fun fact that outrages stick in the mud Cambodians. And they all lived happily ever after? You better believe it, supernaturalism doesn't have a prayer against stellar booty Sparky.

Item 2
A Romanian dude with 5 kids decided to forgo further reproductive exploits so, he - I'm not making this up - gluded a condom to his wang. Eventually, reality set in, so he enlisted medical assistance for his little soldier's glued on raincoat. Doctors, finally, removed it, but it took longer than necessary, because, our hero wanted to keep it. It was -after all - practically new, since he'd only used it once.

The bright bulb didn't do the human gene pool any favors by perpetrating his tainted DNA five damn times. I'm starting to reconsider this glued on condom caper...in his particular case. At worse, his wang falls off, ending his assault on the human gene pool permanently. Sounds like a plan, to this pagan.

Item 3
While in Paris, a Romanian lad met his one true love - a saucy Romanian wench named Elena. Tragically, he had to return home without his true love, but he did console himself with her promise to meet him in Romania...soon. Three long, lonely years passed, until our hero saw her - his Elena - at a seaside resort. Leaving nothing to chance, this time, he proposed and she accepted. I know what you're thinking and you're right. So far this isn't breaking, must read news. Perhaps a Paul Harvey moment will grab you by the short and curlies...

Our hero's wedded bliss express careened off the rails when his blushing bride confessed that she wasn't his Elena. In fact, his new bride is Elena's twin sister, Monica. Monica then explained that Elena got detained in Paris by an accident, making it impossible for her to keep her promise.

Unwilling to accept any substitutes, even a carbon copy like Monica, our hero is divorcing his 'damn close but no cigar' bride so he can marry his Elena. I strongly suggest that our hero rethink this hasty decision. Why not keep both? If his beloved Elena is accident prone, he might, eventually, see the upside to keeping a spare 'virtual Elena' handy. What the hell...In the dark, when his hormones are raging, can he really tell the difference? I seriously doubt it.

In a heartbeat, Home Office officials beat a hasty retreat, opining that the laws might be dumped, some damn day, but it wouldn't be anytime soon.

Given the fun fact that these antique edicts "penalize anyone who challenges the truth of Christian doctrine or the Bible" (Contra Costa Times), don't look for this egregiously-opinionated pagan to visit the U.K. in the foreseeable future. "Hell no, I won't go", sums it up my attitude, perfectly.

Scottish Hate Loogies

Since he retired a few months ago, an Edinburgh (Scotland) denizen perpetrates two, never fail, daily rituals, one of which has a neighbor and certain city officials in a tizzy. Nobody gives a rip about our retiree's daily constitutional, but his penchant for spitting on his neighbors ride has tartan panties in a bunch. In fact, the local justice system ran our spit-spewing hero in for a 'racially-motivated breach of the peace' (Scotsman), because his neighbor is Lotus Clan. That's right, this rice monkey is so pissed about his Beamer getting a daily loogie that he ran the Scottish equivalent of a hate crime up the judicial system flagpole. Bold new concept.

When the court tasked with the case dropped the hate crime charges like a bad habit and nailed the spitter for the local version of disturbing the peace, the rice monkey, Beamer owner went postal:

"I don’t see any justice being served here whatsoever. I want to see this man convicted for what he did. I know the police are annoyed about this and I am angry that he has got away with giving my family three months of torture. This man was continually spitting on my car, there’s evidence to prove it, and to me it was racially motivated because there was no other reason for it. The police believed he had done wrong, no matter the colour of my skin and for the fiscal to give him a slap on the wrist is ridiculous. This is just going to make matters worse. This makes it look like it’s OK to spit on someone’s property and get away with it." (Scotsman)

Like their Yank cousins, Korrectnik, U.K. whiners deem a perp's thoughts more important than than his deeds. Not that it matters, but is 'racism' the only way to explain this spitting asshat's antics? Maybe he's an asshole...Maybe the neighbor pissed him off in some long forgotten way. Maybe...any number of things, none of which matter. If he's punished, it should be for his antics, not for his thoughts. Don't make me come over there...It's been hours, since I hocked a loogie and laid it on a Beamer.

The Birmingham (England) city council issued a secret - until some dastardly flunky leaked it - memo that imposes Smoke Nazi abuse on the city's welfare recipients, in the recipient's own home. According to this Brit web site, the memo decrees that:

'...staff, such as social workers and home helps, could be at risk from passive smoking during house visits. The memo orders employees to tell tenants, including pensioners or housebound residents, to put out their ciggies - or face being reported. Other staff who could be asked to impose the barmy ban include trading standards or licensing officers, who frequently visit smoke-filled buildings like pubs or bars...' (IcBirmingham)

This is Nanny State on steroids bovine excrement and that's a no shit fact. Before they go Smoke Nazi bonkers, these Birmingham hacks should be forced to trot out the mortal remains of all those city employees who scored a secondhand smoke-induced room temperature transition on the job, while visiting some poor slob's domicile or business. If these hacks can't produce any bodies, Birmingham citizens should dump the whole city council like a bad habit.

Is rampant quackery infecting Hong Kong doctors? Not necessarily. Our hero didn't seek help from a trained medical professinal. Instead, he sought these altitude-enhancing treatments from - I am not making this up - beauty parlors. These untrained professionals injected him, drugged him, put him on assorted Rube Goldberg gizmos, but our hero didn't gain a micron of added altitude. Go figure!

It took a while for reality to fight its way through to that lonely, functional synapse, but, eventually, our hero got the big picture and started making shyster assault noises. One salon stuck a deal and refunded half the money this dolt paid them, but the other is hanging tough. Smelling a born loser, the second salon offered this clown 20 additional treatments, free of charge. Given his track record, our hero is, probably, thinking it over.

The not so subtle message is that racism is all whitey's fault, so discussing it with, or in front of, him makes it much too painful for these whining assclowns. Somebody needs to remind these Global African Congress morons that twenty-first century racism is not perpetrated by whitey. It's black-on-black slavery perpetrated in such garden spots as Sudan, and assorted other African nations.

Sombrero Stomper Whining
South of the border asshats staged a protest march through that aromatic, Mexican, blight - Tijuana - to protest all the border jumping asshats who achieved room temperature while trying to sneak into Amerika. White crosses - one for each victim of Uncle Sam's insane quest to control his own borders - lined the road along which these somber, Amerika-bashing, clowns marched. Apparently, we're supposed to feel bad or something. Remind me to put that on my 'to do' list, right after 'volunteer for a quadruple root canal', and 'invite an insurance salespunk to dinner'.

Depending on where you get your data, between 2,000 and 3,000 border jumpers achieved room temperature in the unforgiving Arizona desert, since Uncle Sam tightened up San Diego's border in October 1994, with a program called Operation Gatekeeper. The usual whining suspects want to lay these deaths on Uncle Sam's doorstep, instead of where they belong: on the victims themselves. They came here uninvited. Are we supposed to greet this no shit invasion with a red carpet?

Curiously, nobody bothered to mention the thrilling fact that this room temperature border jumping scum died breaking Amerika's immigration laws. You're coming here un-goddamn-invited, shit for brains. Am I supposed to give a flaming damn when you die in the process? I way don't think so, Colonista Sparky.

Cooking Up Trouble

This year's international couscous festival - hilariously named "Cooks For Peace" - ended in controversy when the Palestinian team accused the Israeli team of stealing their recipe. According to Palestinian delegate Mohammed Kebal: "The Israelis stole my land and my country, now they are even stealing our recipes. The hand of [the Israeli intelligence agency] Mossad is at work here. We will never take part in the contest again." (Washington Times).

Peaceful co-existence went up in, uh, flames when the festival's judges awarded Israel's Raz Cohen a special prize for originality for a couscous concoction 'based on recipes used by Jewish communities in North Africa' (Times). In a lather, Palestinian hash slinger, Mohammed Najeeb, huffed and puffed about an Israeli chef getting an award for a dish created by A-rabs. Just like that, he and his whining towelhead cohorts picked up their frying pans and went home, vowing never to return...ever again.

If Israelis and Palestinians can't even achieve peaceful coexistence at a cooking competition, it's utterly irrational to expect them to bury the hatchet and live, side-by-side, in harmony. It ain't gonna happen, so get over it.

What in blue - expletive deleted - blazes is couscous anyway?

Although the initial splashdown didn't off him, immediately, he eventually, found eternal rest in Davy Jones' locker. That all seems 'no harm, no foul' to this pagan, but certain Kiwi flatliner coddlers want Nanny State hacks build a fence and put up a sign that warns aspiring human gene pool improvement volunteers that jumping off the cliff into the water below could be, uh, a terminally bad notion.

How dare these ugly Amerikan capitalists perpetrate 'e-mails, manuals and meetings in English' (Post-Intelligencer).

Surrender Monkey language purists are so over-the-top about French-only lingo that they renamed common cyberspace terms like 'e-mail' and 'fax' to "courrier electronique" and "telecopie" respectively. Leaving nothing to chance, they formed a special cabal to defend Surrender Monkey lingo from English encrochment:

'...The Web site of the Defense of the French Language, a group partly financed by France's Culture Ministry, even has a page titled "Museum of Horrors" showing photos of English-language billboards on buses, at train stations, airports and that most iconic of French institutions, the Paris Metro.

On Wednesday, it and other groups are to award their annual English Doormat Prize for perceived offenses against the French language. Last year's winner was an academic who promoted teaching in English. The 2002 award went to the esteemed Le Monde newspaper for running weekly excerpts in English from the New York Times. This year's candidates include the head of the French Football Federation for using the song "Can You Feel It?" as a national team anthem, luxury goods firm Dior for promoting perfumes in English and European Central Bank President Jean-Claude Trichet for giving a speech in English...'

A supernaturalism-inspired riot in the dothead heartland stopped qualifying as 'breaking news' decades ago, but this one provides a stop the presses twist. An estimated 15,000 Hindus showed up at 'the Sriguru Ashram at Kharagaon in Orissa to see the priest 'ascend to heaven' between 6am and noon' (Ananova), but they went on a rampage when the time came and went without the Hindu 'saint' perpetrating a dothead class 'Beam me up, Scotty' gig.

Believe it or not, this alleged saint is more annoyed by his failure to beam up than he is about his loyal believers throwing a property-destroying hissy fit: "...I am very shocked to have given you so much pain. I wanted to leave my mortal body, but I could not. Please forgive me." (Ananova). If getting his 'ticket' to the hereafter punched is that important to him, and his deity is too busy, I'm confident that a room temperature transition can be arranged. All you gotta do is ask the right people, dude. Do I need to think of everything?

Culture Clash In The U.K.
Source: The Sunday Times (UK) [11/21]

Ireland is buffeted by shockwaves from the collision of Ireland's venerable Rosary True Believer culture with an even older alleged culture perpetrated Ireland's Mecca Maniac immigrants. The rival cultures just don't see eye to eye when it comes to such mundane things as social interaction between the sexes. Two tidbits from this Brit fishwrap piece illustrate this point, perfectly:

A 14-year-old Mecca Maniac wenchlet got horizontal and squishy with a much older dude - 35 years old - whom she met via 'a mobile phone text-and-date service', whatever the hell that is. As soon as the eager tart broke the thrilling, I'm a slut, news to mum and dad, they disowned her and threw her out of their house - and their lives - permanently. Big, big fun. The good news is that, so far, no male relative has restored the wenchlet's honor by killing her.

'...Earlier this year, a chaperoned singles event aimed at introducing Irish Muslims to prospective marriage partners was cancelled. Some 50 Muslim men and women were due to take part but it was called off after Muslin elders claimed the match-making dinner was “the work of the devil”...' (Times)

Why, exactly, did these Mecca Maniacs move to Ireland in the first place? If they want to perpetrate their 7th century alleged culture in the 21st century why not do it where those notions reign supreme? Why Ireland, when Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, Iran, and Pakistan are already mired in this antiquated bovine excrement? It's enquiring minds time, again, in the pagan bunker.

Brit Smoking Ban
Source: Houston Chronicle [11/17]

Brit Smoke Nazis in their national Health Department are poised to emulated their Yank, Big Apple, cousins by imposing a smoking ban that includes 'most public places, including restaurants and any pub that serves food' (Chronicle). Proving that anything less than criminalizing cancer sticks won't cut it, non-government Smoke Nazis whine that some bars and pubs aren't included in the proposed ban.

Employing the venerable 'toe in the troubled regulatory waters' method, Brit bureaucrats intend to impose the new ban in gradual stages over a 4 year period, until it achieves maximum impact in 2008. Smoke 'em if you've got 'em, while you still can, chaps.

A Brit Holiday Brain-Fart
Source: BBC [11/16]

Brit supernaturalists in Cambridge (England, but don't quote me) toll booths had a hissy fit when city officials decided to invite a 70's punk band, The Damned, to switch on the city's Christmas lights this year. According to one, outraged, holy roller padre, the band "goes out of its way to deny what Christmas is all about" (BBC). Translation: One or more of The Damned's songs roasts Cross Cult butt.

Somebody needs to get real about Christmas's well documented, pagan roots. Despite its name, Christmas is, in fact, a pagan holiday which was co-opted by the god squad in the era of the Roman Empire. A few facts - a term unfamiliar to the god squad - will demonstrate this.

Fact: In Roman times the period between December 17th and January 1st is the Saturnalia, a feast which celebrates the approach of Spring. Saturnalia featured feasting, mirth and exchanging gifts.

Fact: December 25th is the feast day of the Persian God, Mithra, the god of light and wisdom. In Roman times the feast celebrated the Sun God.

Fact: Many pagans, including the ancient Romans, celebrated their gods with trees, including evergreens. Such celebrations often involved decorating trees with candles.

The outright theft of pagan feasts by fourth century god squad true believers has gone unpunished for much too long. Pagans must step up to the plate and reclaim these ancient feast days. It’s time to stand up and tell the god squad to stop whining about ‘Putting Christ back in Christmas’. It’s not your holiday, it’s ours, so sit the down and shut up. We’ll damn sure honor our feast days any way we damn please, including having a Cross Cult bashing punk band switch on the holiday lights.

I know, I know...There I go again. Look on the bright side, it's only November 16th and you've already endured this pagan's annual Mithra tantrum. It's glass half full time in the pagan scribbler bunker.

Those Wacky Iranians
Source: AFP [11/15]

Iran's supreme supernaturalist, Ayatollah Ali Khameinei, just bent some long-standing rules to allow the faithful to - gasp - use a telescope to view the moon. Why the moon, you ask? The 'crescent of the new moon...signals the start of Eid al-Fitr, a three-day feast celebrating the end of Ramadan' (AFP).

This rule bending isn't as arbitrary as it seems, because, most of Iran's grand ayatollahs are so old they need a telescope to find the full moon on a cloudless night. Here's a hint, Iranian wingnuts: aim the telescope at the sky, not the neighbor's hottie bride. Don't make me come over there.

A terminally-wide load Brit, Graem Ivison, got fired from his British Nuclear Fuels plant gig, because, at 420 pounds, he was too big to fit through the security turnstiles, no matter how much grease they slathered on him. Our hero is so big he couldn't find a decontamination suit large enough to encompass his ample girth. He's suing, of course...So what else is new?

Hmm...What color does that much human blubber turn, when it's radiated?

Brit Fat Nazi Brain-Fart
Source: BBC [11/14]

Brit bright bulbs hatched two nifty notions to lop the lard off the U.K.'s wide load tykes. The perpetrators of a Public Health White Paper have a lard-culling plan that attacks junk food ingestion on two fronts. The first scheme bans junk food, advertising on Brit boob tubes before 9 pm, but deems such ads okey dokey, thereafter, because nobody gives a rip about adult wide loads...this time around.

The second scheme is even wackier:

'...The White Paper favours a "traffic light" labelling scheme for foods, according to The Observer. Unhealthy foods would receive a red label, while healthy choices such as fruits and vegetables would attract a green label. Nutritious but high-fat foods, such as cheese, would be given an amber label...' (BBC)

Stay tuned for Amerika's Fat Nazis to run these notions up Uncle Sam's flagpole, any day now. Am I the only rational adult left on this planet? Wouldn't that be a terrifying notion...

Afterthoughts
Banning junk food ads won't do a damn thing to slim down tyke porkers, if mum and dad bring the stuff home in their grocery bags.

Long Range Planning

An Austrian Mecca Maniac named Muhammed Mueller talked his favorite homeboy into helping him dig a 68km (a shade over 42 miles) tunnel to Gradec, Slovenia, using only...hand shovels. According to rational adults, this momentous task will take about 5,600...years. Why you ask, is this wingnut perpetrating this farce? He claims it's all about supenaturalism, unemployment and other, unspecified, issues. How, exactly, will digging a 42 mile long tunnel with hand shovels resolve these issues? I haven't got a clue and it's a slam dunk neither does Herr Mueller.

Glass half full readers will opine that this tunnel brain-fart serves at least one noble purpose: it keeps two world class wingnuts off the streets. I can live with that.

Canadian Follies

A Nova Scotia motorist got an expensive $445 (Canadian funny money) reality check when cops ticketed him for having unopened booze and brewskie containers in his truck cab. These badge-packing Canadian clowns nailed a sober, law-abiding driver for having unopened adult beverage containers in his ride? Unreal!

'...Citing the Liquor Control Act -- which prohibits the transportation of booze within reach of a driver, even if it's unopened -- the officer ticketed Eisnor and issued him a fine of $445....' (CTV)

Obviously, Canada is no place for rational adults to hang out. That's why it's a perfect place for Amerika's disgruntled lefty political refugees. These lefty to the max expatriates will fit right into the egregiously irrational Canadian populace. If any lefties need help packing, PIG regulars are poised to speed up the process.

Boldly going where few Toll Booths dare to go, a Brit Toll Booth - the Canterbury Cathedral - is reviving a tradition guaranteed to thrill brewskie lovers spitless. I won't tell John Hagee about this, if you don't:

'...Canterbury Cathedral is reviving the ancient monastic tradition of making beer available within its precincts. The Kent cathedral is selling a bottled bitter which is made by local brewer Shepherd Neame according to a 300-year-old Kentish recipe...' (BBC)

Hmm....Being potted would, undoubtedly, make Cross Cult supernaturalism much easier to take, but, it still doesn't hold an alter candle to paganism's legendary, orgastic, revels. Nice try, Brit Cross Cult dudes. What else have you got?

Canada Korrectly

A Siberian-Canadian dolly whimpered "discrimination" because her boss insisted on calling her, "kemosabe". In a rational world, the relevant authorities would tell her to "get over it", but, this is Canada, a place that has never been a bastion of synaptic functionality. Instead, the Nova Scotia Human Rights Commission wasted an entire day - I am not making this up - watching "Lone Ranger" re-runs, to determine if "kemosabe" is offensive. After this in-depth research, the commission decreed "kemosabe" no harm, no foul cool in the frozen, irrational, north.

Outraged, the Siberian-Canadian dolly took her inane blithering to court, where another Canadian anomaly - black robed rational adults on the Nova Scotia Appeals Court - reaffirmed kemosabe as Canadian cool. Institutionalized discrimination? Not in this or any other lifetime, chronically-oppressed, teepee tootsie Sparky.

It's All The Rage
Source: Pagan Scribbler News Wire [11/01]

From Australia, Japan and Spain, "rage" rears its ugly head.

Aussie Road Rage
An Aussie motorist's crappy driving got Emerilized beyond recognition when his "aggressive driving" escalated into an angry confrontation with some pedestrians. When confronted, the driver exchanged heated words with the three pedestrians who responded by pounding on him with their fists. Unwilling to let it end that way, the battered but unbowed driver returned to his car where he fetched his trusty, dusty persuader. I know what you're thinking and you're wrong...He didn't get a gun; he bagged something much better:

"He has got close to the group as they walked towards the nightclub, and he has started the chainsaw up and run after them in a threatening manner," the police spokesman said. "When he has got to the door of the club he has revved it up a bit, he heard the police coming and ran off, dumping his chainsaw." (News.Au)

A chainsaw! Am I the only one wondering why a dude packs a chainsaw in his ride? Is there something I need to know about this particular aspect of Aussie culture?

Quake Rage
A dude toiling as a quake cleanup volunteer in Ojeya (Japan) needed a brewski so majorly, he smashed a supermarket's windows, when the store clerk refused to re-open for our thirsty hero. Apparently, there was a teensy misunderstanding when he volunteered to deal with damage. The volunteer group thought he planned to clean up damage; he thought they wanted him to inflict damage where none existed. Whatever the case, he has ample time to sort it all out, now, because his brewskie rage earned him private accommodation in the local graybar hotel.

Next time, dude, bring your own brewskies.

Chess Rage
The World Chess Federation's (FIDE) "chess olympiad" in Spain turned into a WWE cage match when FIDE V.P., Zurab Azmaiparashvili, head-butted some Spanish cops. The fun got started when Zurab detected an error in the medal ceremony and tried to get on stage to correct it.

'...According to a statement released by the organisers, the Georgian, who was European chess champion in 2003, "butted the agent on the mouth" when a policemen tried to stop him climbing on to the stage....' (Guardian)

Unimpressed by Zurab's credentials, Spanish cops wrestled Zurab to the ground, handcuffed him, then carted him off to the local graybar hotel. FIDE officials are in a lather and who can blame them, but the locals who organized the chess tournament insist that Zurab has been a pain in the boom-boom from day one:

"When he arrived to the airport he demanded two hotel rooms, one as member of the Fide and the other one as player. When his demand was refused, he adopted an aggressive attitude and he stayed for five hours at the airport trying to get his requirement." (A statement released on the tournament website as quoted by the Guardian)

Zurab is, obviously, a visionary who wants to, uh, bodyslam chess's stodgy image into submission. Borrowing a page from Vince McMahon's playbook, Zurab probably envisions 'lingerie chess matches' between rook-wrangling hotties, plus other irresistible incentives. If that's where Zurab is taking chess, he's got my undivided attention. All that will have to wait unit our hero extracates himself from the Spanish justice system's "checkmate".

Free Zurab! Free Zurab! Free Zurab!

Korrectnik Bonkers in The U.K.
Source: Tongue Tied Internet Site [12/28]

Brit Korrectniks decreed that, henceforth, the Brit cops at the Metropolitan Police will banish "blacks" and "Asians" from the authorized race descriptors list. The new, vastly improved, term - one deemed Korrectnik cool - is "visible ethnic minorities". Asinine? You bet and, ironically, even Melanin-Enriched Brit cops agree:

'..."There has been so much emphasis on the issue of terminology, that the issue has become confusing for black police officers, let alone white ones," said Anna Scott, the general Secretary of the National Black Police Association. "We are risking becoming too politically correct at the expense of being clearly understood by officers and the general public."...' (Tongue Tied)

How far into this Korrectnik-scripted insanity will Brit asshats descend before they 'get it'? Will they eradicate height descriptors to coddle the vertically-challenged? Will they eradicate weight descriptors to coddle the "size acceptance" crowd? In the not too distant future, when this policy reaches its irrational extreme an All Points Bulletin will become stunningly vague:

"A human of undisclosed height, weight, gender and ethnicity is wanted for murder. Be on the lookout for this armed and dangerous suspect..."

Brit taxpayers must be thrilled to learn that public safety got sacrificed on the Korrectnik brainfart altar.

High Altitude Slap & Tickle

A Kiwi egghead at Victoria University is shocked, shocked, I tell you, that certain consenting adults get horizontal and squishy while scaling Mount Everest. He's so obsessed with this hyper-hormonal, high altitude desecration that he's mounting an international protest movement to rescue the mountain from these horny "because it's there" adventure seekers.

'...[Professor Ralph Pettman] said to truly understand global social movements, he needed to start one himself. After looking around for an issue of global interest, he believed this idea appealed as something of international importance...' (Stuff.co)

There must be something in this egghead's water. How else can you explain him elevating high altitude humping to "global interest" and/or "international importance". Aside from the hot-blooded participants, this Kiwi egghead is the only alleged human who gives a flaming damn about Mount Everest base camp boinking. If Professor Pettman wants to tackle an issue of 'international importance', I offer the following suggestions: international terrorism; rampaging tyranny in such liberty blights as Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Iran and Zimbabwe.

Ralphie boy needs a reality check, stat, so, if you happen to hang out near this Kiwi Ivory Tower, tell the relevant mental health purveyors that Professor Pettman is off his medication...again.

Fickle fate turned a Canadian motorist's high tech toy into road kill when he managed to dump his new, 43-inch Samsung boob tube onto the road, cuing it up for obliteration. Our hero's boob tube acquisition started swimmingly, when this Canadian couch potato loaded the oversized boob tube into his pickup truck bed. But, fickle fate had other plans for his new toy:

'...As the truck was traveling up a hill the rope holding the television in place released. The back gate of the pickup truck was down and the television slid out of the truck and onto the roadway. A woman driving a 1993 Buick southbound in the opposite direction struck the television with the front passenger side of her vehicle at approximately 80 km-h...' (North Umberton Today)

R-Rated Educrap

A Brit hormone gorilla landed in very hot water when he turned in his English project at a Brit educrap cabal named 'Cavendish Comprehensive'. The assignment - search the Internet for facts about his favorite celebrity - sounds harmless enough, unless you factor in the typical teenage dude's raging hormones. Nobody, apparently, imagined that the lad's favorite celebrity is a tasty wench named, Jordan, a Brit hottie whose primary claim to fame is Pam Anderson class sweater puppies, plus assorted other eye catching goodies.

The bovine excrement hit the proverbial fan for 14-year-old James Petchey when, in addition to the relevant prose, his project included topless pictures of Jordan that he'd downloaded from the Internet. Faster than you can say "Nice rack, darlin", our young hero is suspended for 24 hours, and the hottest topic on the school grapevine. No doubt, every time James encounters another hormone gorilla, he's asked the same question: "where can I get a copy of your project, dude?"

Afterthought
Certain readers - and we both know who you are - wonder where they can do in-depth research on Jordon. As usual, I have the answer: She and her sweater-busting...accomplishments are a regular fixture in a Brit tabloid called 'The Sun'.

Dothead Angst
Source: The Telegraph (Calcutta, India) [12/11]

Two dothead dollies who 'tied the knot' with each other were deemed cool for school by a Punjab magistrate who told the two wenches' families that the dollies weren't breaking any laws. According to this dothead fishwrap, this ruling 'sent shockwaves across the state', because the last thing the ubiquitous 'they' want is dolly couples. Bold new concept. With a paltry 768 girls to 1,000 boys ration in Punjab, the one thing dothead worrywarts don't need is a dothead dolly shortage exacerbated by dollies pairing off with each other.

Nobody, including these dothead fishwrap scribblers, has the nads to point out the obvious source of dothead female to male ratio angst. You'll be thrilled to hear that I'm up to the challenge: If the dotheads really want to resolve this gender imbalance, they need to dump their 'boys are cool and girls need to be aborted' bias like a bad habit. They made this gender imbalance hell and it's only fair that they burn in it. Leave this happy, lesbian couple alone, or you'll force me to come over there.

Afterthought
Dothead whiners need to look for the glass half full elements in this story. For example, egregiously over populated India is less likely to get more mouths to feed if dothead dolly couples become 'and idea whose time has come'. How, exactly, do you say 'turkey baster' in Hindi?

When last seen our scofflaw hero was consoling his new bride, after she roused herself from a stress-induced fainting spell. I have no clue how 'a woman scorned' translates into Israeli lingo, but you can bet the farm that this terminally unhappy groom is up to speed on this venerable concept, now.

Malaysia's Innovative Illegal Immigrant Solution

Malaysia's solution to illegal immigration is inspired - inspiring - to say the least. After giving illegal immigrants a temporary amnesty that allowed them time to pick up their toys and get the hell out of Malaysia, government officials took action, the instant the deadline expired. Unlike Korrectnik Amerika, Malaysia's solution rates an unambiguous 'crude but very damn effective':

'...A total 18,607 illegal immigrants in Malaysia were whipped under an amendment to the Immigration Act introduced in 2002, Deputy Home Affairs Minister Tan Chai Ho said Wednesday. The number comprised 11,473 Indonesians, 2,786 Myanmars, 1,956 Filipinos, 708 Bangladeshis, 509 Indians and 1,175 other nationalities, Tan told reporters at the parliament lobby here...' (Xinhaunet)

Highly motivated by this 'take no prisoners' approach, an estimated 6,000,000 illegals staged a hasty exit from Malaysia. Those who remain will be tracked down, whipped, then thrown the hell out, government officials promise.

Kudos to Malaysia for their inspirational illegal immigrant solution.

Not Your Daddy's Nativity
Madam Tussaud's London emporium has Brit Cross Cult panties in a wad, thanks to a nifty nativity scene that has Brit soccer star, David Beckham, as Joseph, his wife Victoria - A.K.A. Posh Spice - as Mary and sexy Aussie warbler, Kylie Minogue, as an angel. According to Reuters, the usual suspect in funny collars are not the least bit amused:

"This is worse than bad taste. It is cheap." (Vatican spokeshole)

"This is just an additional indication of the way people exploit the Christian message without any real understanding of its significance." (Reverend Rod Thomas, spokesman for the conservative evangelical grouping Reform )

"The waxwork will cause offence to many and it should be pulled down straight away." (Presbyterian Church spokeshole)

These and all other Cross Cultists with wadded panties need to get over it. All they do by complaining is give Madam Tussauds what it really wants: free publicity.

A Suitably-Seasonal Sales-pitch
Commuters riding the London Underground - a subway, by any other name - were treated to advertisements for a urp-avoiding, morning after pill the manufacturer called the "immaculate contraption". As expected, this play on cherished Cross Cult terminology has those Brit Cross Cult panties in a hyper wad...yes, again.

'...The poster, which appeared on London Underground trains, asked: "Immaculate contraception? If only." "It might be Christmas time," it read, "but condoms still split and pills still get forgotten. So if your contraception lets you down, ask your pharmacist for Levonelle One Step."...' (Reuters)

After garnering all that enriching, free, publicity, the pill's manufacturer pulled the advertisements, since it already accomplished its prime mission: spreading their pill's name throughout the U.K.

Kudos to Schering Health Care for an inspired ad campaign. We are, in this instance, amused in the extreme.

Keeping It In The Family
Source: Herald Sun (Aussie) [12/05]

After 10 years spent living in sin, a Brit couple, Denise Dancer and Paul Bayliss, decided to tie the knot and make their 'togetherness' street legal. Alas, wedded bliss careened off the rails one dark day when Denise arrived home unexpected to catch her future husband getting horizontal and squishy with Denise's 18-year-old daughter from a prior marriage. Daughter Emma, obviously, found her new 'daddy' almost as irresistible as mama Denise did. What did Denise do? Did she confront them immediately, or did she leave unseen to think it over?

After canceling the wedding, without telling Paul or daughter Emma, Denise stewed for a couple months before confronting the horny duo. When she finally nailed them with her "I know what you've been doing together behind my back", the horny couple confessed that they'd been 'an item' for nearly two years. Paul, obviously, has a taste for Brit jailbait, the randy bastard.

Now engaged to be married, Paul and Emma moved in together, after Denise tossed them out. I wouldn't bet the farm on happily ever after, Emma, because Paul can't be trusted. Is it my imagination or has Paul been getting a tad too chummy with your 15-year-old sister, Lisa? How long before you come home, unexpected and find your Paul up to his old tricks with another jailbait dolly? What goes around, comes around, darlin. You heard it here, first.

Religiously-Korrect Credit Card
Source: BBC [12/04]

An Israeli bank exploited an untapped market when they created a Sabbath-observing credit card for Ultra-Orthodox Torah True Believers. The new card has some terminally nifty features that should thrill these Ultra-Orthodox supernaturalists spitless:

The card won't operate on the Sabbath, so, if you need to lay some plastic on a vender between sundown on Friday until an hour after sundown on Saturday, you're S.O.L.

The card "may not operate", at all - any day of the week - in shops that don't observe the Sabbath.

Religiously-korrect credit cards are an idea whose time has come. A religiously-korrect Mecca Maniac card would prevent a straying true believer from using plastic for a booty call, buying adult beverages, grabbing some BBQ pork ribs for lunch, or bagging that slinky little frock. But, the same card would work like gang-busters when you need some dynamite for your bomb, or a new machete for those beheadings. A religiously-korrect Cross Cult card would only work when used for a donation to your favorite televised Toll Booth, or postage for that letter to the FCC. The possibilities are endless.

Self Defense In The U.K.
Source: Telegraph (UK) [12/04]

U.K. citizens who try to defend themselves when desperados invade their abode are hobbled by laws that severely restrict their actions. The current law uses ambiguous, deliberately undefined, terms that require a citizen to use "reasonable" but not "excessive" force when he defends his life, family and property. It's a no shit "guilty until proven innocent" legal hurdle for law-abiding citizens. If a Brit injures the asshat who invades his home and assaults him and his family, he'll probably do more time in the Brit graybar than the desperado.

At least one Brit official, Sir John Stevens, the Metropolitan Police Commissioner (Britain's top cop), wants to remove these restrictions and let law abiding citizens protect themselves for a change:

'..."It's all very well for the lawyers to say the law is clear, but I'm afraid people on the street don't feel that, and on occasions neither do the police. Of course you don't want to have gratuitous or excessive violence… but you have to be given the power to use what is necessary. I'm not talking about guns but people being allowed to defend themselves and use whatever is necessary to defend themselves against someone who may well be armed with a knife."

There should be a presumption in law "that the person using the force to defend themselves is acting within the law, rather than the other way round"...' (Telegraph)

Kudos to Sir John for his solid defense of inalienable individual liberty in Britain. It's nice to know that Britain's top cop 'gets it'.

His horizontal intentions went to hell in a handbasket the instant his rent-a-wench - an undercover officer - flashed her badge and laid the fatal words on him: you're busted, dude. And what, you ask, did he reply:

"I only want to ask her as a joke because of who I am. I would never do anything like that." (Hoa Trung Nguyen, 47, from the Phap Bao Temple in Sydney, as reported by Ananova)

Does Buddhism have a special way to say "Gotcha", or is Homer's all purpose "D'oh" sufficient? Enquiring minds want to know.

Seasonal Psychological Warfare?
Source: Sydney Morning Herald

It's that time of year again, meaning no matter where you go, you're assaulted by store speakers and roaming musical terrorists bellowing out those annoying in the extreme Christmas carols. If they annoy the customers, imagine what the effect would be on store employees who must endure this musical assault 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, for a month straight? Just shoot me sums up this pagan's attitude, an assessment shared by unionized Austrian store employees:

'...An Austrian trade union has claimed the repetitive playing of Christmas Carols in department stores is nothing short of "psycho-terrorism" for salespeople.

From morning to night, for weeks before Christmas, there was the same Christmas music in department stores over and over again, said Gottfried Rieser of the Union of Private Employees. "Many staff in the retail sector suffer psychologically from it. They get aggressions and aversions against Christmas music. On Christmas Eve with their families, they can't stand Silent Night or Jingle Bells any more," he said...' (Morning Herald)

As much as I hate unions, I am forced to admit that this time, they have a valid point. Enough is enough, turn off the freaking holiday music before I go postal. This is not a drill!

Asian News Roundup

Sex rears its head in such diverse lotus clan outposts as Thailand and Taiwan.

Thailand
The ruling - I am not making this up - Thai Rak Thai political cabal is up to here with the rampant immorality that caused embarrassing bimbo eruptions recently. They're so fed up, they are tilting a venerable Thai marital tradition that allows a horndog hubby to keep a "mia noi" - mistress, more or less - for his non-marital horizontal needs. Needless to say, it's not thrilling Thai Rak Thai hacks spitless. In fact, one warns that, if potential candidates are given a morality Nazi third degree, the party won't find enough suitable candidates to fill the party's current 200 seat legicrat majority.

Speaking from personal experience, Thai wenches are cute in the extreme and very hard to resist. I seriously doubt that this political cabal will follow through with this brain-fart. Stay tuned for more, when the fun facts emerge.

Taiwan
A high school teacher Emerilized her high school wenches' homework, with a resounding 'bam' that made everyone sit up and ask,'what the hell is going on?' The assignment involved - I am not making this up - asking the high school wenches to draw a picture of their own vaginas. Since the teacher in question is a wench, too, you can't escape the obvious conclusion that she's a closet GLAAD-BAAG looking for on-the-job titillation. Works for me, but not on the public's dime. Would it be terminally crude to ask if this horny Educrat wench plans to post the winning homework on a web site? Enquiring minds want to know.

Golden D'oh - International Division
Source: Ananova

The Kraut padre decided to Emerilize his flock's supernaturalism by giving each one an inspirational video about the cross dude and his 'good news'. What they got, instead, inspired them, but not the way the padre expect:

'...A vicar has given his flock hardcore porn videos instead of a video about God's message at Christmas after a mix-up at a copying factory...' (Ananova)

The padre managed to retrieve all the porn flicks, before his flock got thrilled beyond redemption, but he made a good point about his errant holy roller epics. Three hundred horndogs expecting some wham bam thank you ma'am action got his holy roller epic instead. Is Old Ka-Boom that devious? Not a chance. Is Mrs. Old Ka-Boom that devious. You better believe it, porn monkey Sparky.

Taking The Plunge, Kiwi Style
Source: Sydney Morning Herald

A Kiwi dude didn't take it very well when the bungee jump punks refused to let him jump off the bridge. Determined and then some, he Emerilized it, majorly, replacing Emeril's legendary 'bam' with a resounding 'splat'. Demonstrating world class bravado - a code word for monumental stupidity - the dolt took the plunge off the bungee platform, without using the bungee cords:

'...He then barged past the staff and dived 47 metres into the river. The impact knocked him unconscious and he was rescued by the bungee jump staff before being flown to nearby Taupo hospital, [Constable Tracey] Haggart said in a statement...' (Morning Herald)

Master of understatement, Kiwi justice officials chalk up the unnamed man's antics to his pre-jump adult beverage infusion, noting that he 'had a small amount of alcohol' in his system. Small compared to what? The man who bungee jumps 154 feet into a river without a bungee cable is shit-faced!

My Kingdom For A Gas Pump?
Source: BBC

The moment I spotted the first word in the BBC headline, 'Adventurer', this Brit news cabal had my undivided attention. The fact that the full headline reads 'Adventurer Stranded in Antartica' seemed redundant to this pagan scribbler. In the twilight zone called journalism, there are certain givens. One 'given' is that the most likely words to follow a lead about a risk taking dolt dubbed an 'Adventurer' are, in no special order: stranded, lost, missing, injured and killed. "Adventurer Stranded" is extensively charted 'well duh' waters for this pagan.

For those among you who obsess on the facts, I'll give you the essentials. Aussie Jon Johanson cobbled together a home-built, single engine plane, then managed to fly it over the South Pole - A first, according to the BBC story - but his planning sucked majorly and he ran out of gas. Luckily, he found the airstrip at an American Antarctic base called 'McMurdo' and put down there. When he asked the Americans for gas, they said 'no way'. He tried the nearby Kiwi Antarctic establishment, Scott Base, and got the same answer. That's what this Brit news cabal means when they say 'stranded'.

Antarctica New Zealand Chief Executive, Lou Sanson made the American and Kiwi position clear enough that even this 'adventurer' should understand.

"He appears to have gone in there without a search and rescue plan and without a contingency plan if things go wrong, and he's expecting the New Zealand and United States Governments to pick up and be his contingency," Mr. Sanson added. He said the Americans provided Mr Johanson with food and shelter and that New Zealanders had offered to fly him home "on the first available flight. And we can make arrangements to ship his plane out at his cost."...' (BBC)

Johanson claims he intended to fly over Antarctica all the way to Argentina, but that doesn't pass the smell test for the Yanks, the Kiwis or this pagan. He expected somebody to save his bacon, on their dime, but he was wrong. This assclown can rot there for all I care, since it might ward off any other self-defined 'adventurers' seeking fame and glory.

An EU Bambi-Coddling Brain-Fart
Source: Scotsman

EU hacks continue to reset the bar with their Draconian - in the extreme - Nanny Government on steroids edicts. This time, EU bureaucrats boldly went where even bomb-throwing, tree spiking Bambi-huggers never dared to go.

'...The bill, due to be debated in February, would dictate that any wild game, furred or feathered, sold to a butcher must be accompanied by an official declaration by a trained person who has witnessed the animal being shot and can vouch for the fact that it was healthy before being shot. It must also be subjected to a post-mortem inspection by a qualified vet to detect any abnormalities not caused by the hunting process...' (Scotsman)

Translation: You can kill Bambi and assorted other critters, the old fashioned way...as long as you don't sell the beastie to someone for dinner. If you plan to sell it to a restaurant you must follow the EU dictated steps. Under this edict you must: take a vet on your hunting trip, trap the soon to be room temperature critter for a pre-demise check-up, turn the critter loose, hunt it, kill it, then have your handy-dandy vet companion give it an autopsy. Is this asinine to the max? You bet. Is this a classic Nanny Government brain-fart? You better believe it, road kill Sparky.

Hidden Sand Monkey Assets?
Source: Reuters

Beneath those moo-moo rigs they wear, Sand Monkey dudes are packing some plus-size brass nads, if this Reuters item is true. 'It' happened on the final day of the Black Helicopter Club's global warming conference in Milan.

'...Delegates said that Saudi Arabia, the world's biggest oil exporter, wanted promises of aid if Kyoto spurs a shift to renewable energies like tidal, solar or wind energy at the expense of fossil fuels...' (Reuters)

Sand Monkey oil tycoons spend money like drunken sailors, imagining - irrationally - that wells never run dry...that unforeseen technology advances won't make their lucrative oil reserves as economically-viable as buggy whips. Whatever their fate, they have nobody to blame but themselves. Should the oil consumers give you aid because you didn't diversify, didn't prepare for that inescapable rainy day? I way don't think so, oil sheik Sparky.

We Interrupt Your Holiday Elevator Music...
Source: Sun (UK)

A Brit capitalism outpost - a supermarket named Asda - gave shoppers a badly needed break from that annoying to the max holiday music when someone hacked into their FM satellite-fed, elevator music transmission. Replacing Rudolph's red nose and those ubiquitous jingling bells were the sounds of a happy, horny couple getting eagerly, noisily horizontal and squishy.

While shoppers listened in bemused amazement, store officials searched high and low for the horny pair, without success. Is this porn star soundtrack better than those Christmas carols? You better believe it, horndog Sparky.

A Golden D'oh Epic
Source: South African Press Association

A Nigerian dude who lives in the proverbial bad neighborhood was convinced that some gun punk would use him for target practice, so he sought professional help from a local bullet-proofing expert. The fun began after the expert - a local herbalist...a witch doctor by any other name - mixed up his bullet proofing concoction, leading us to this epic's Paul Harvey Moment:

"To confirm its efficacy, the herbalist tied the charm around his neck and insisted that [bullet phobicUmaa] Akor should fire a gun at him. The experiment proved fatal for the herbalist and his skull was shattered. He died immediately". (Benue State police spokesman Bode Fakeye as quoted by SAPA)

It's always a mistake when a huckster believes his own bovine excrement. How utterly fitting is it that this herbalist's mumbo jumbo got him a room temperature transition? Very, and then some. No doubt, wherever he is, in whatever hereafter he attained, herbalist Ashi Terfa is thrilled beyond words to be a Golden D'oh finalist.

Showstopping Brit Advertising
Source: Sky News (UK)

Brit boob tube advertising boldly goes where their Yank cousins only venture in their wildest dreams. Case in point, a recent ad for a Brit bakery called 'Mr. Kipling' an ad that made 600 enraged Brit holy rollers run screaming for the nearest telephone.

'...The ad opens with a woman called Mary screaming in pain as she gives birth in what appear to be a hospital. But as the camera pans back the shot reveals she is actually the star of a nativity play, with dozens of people looking on open-mouthed. An audience member asks if Mr Kipling has ever directed a play before, which is met with the reply: "No, but he does make exceedingly good cakes."..' (Sky News)

This is very fun stuff, too fun, apparently, since the holy hubbub prompted Mr. Kipling to pull the ad. Kudos to this Brit firm for making an ad this pagan would watch...even enjoy...again, and again.

Dothead Hero

Allegedly 'Amerikan' firms eager to export high tech jobs to the Dothead homeland might want to know that Bhatinda, India's most celebrated citizen is a Dothead dude who drives everywhere, in reverse. Is this the keen logic and critical thinking that these so-called 'Amerikan' firms deem so vital to their economic well-being? Enquiring minds want to know.

Desperate Horndog Measures
Source: Reuters

A D-Cup Heartland horndog desperate to rekindle his ex-girlfriend's affection had a pal shoot him in the nads, demonstrating, conclusively, the downside of thinking with your 'little head'. We aren't told how impressed his lost love is, but I'm guessing that Italian mental health pros took notice...big damn time. Do I really need to warn you not to try this at home?

NOVEMBER 2003
Smile When You Say That, Holy Roller Sparky
Source: WND

Plus size holy roller, John Hagee, pissed off Canadian Mecca Maniacs so majorly, they strong armed his Canadian boob tube purveyor into yanking his 3-part series - 'Islam in America' - after episode 1 aired. What makes this newsworthy is how the Canadian network justified its actions.

'..."It was a tonal thing. You could see what he was trying to do by his tone and body language." It wasn't so much his exact words, [Toronto station CTS's Program Manager Rob ] Sheppard said, but Hagee's purported inference Muslims cannot be loyal Americans...' (WND)

Perceived oppression is alive, well, and thriving in Canada. If a properly-hyphenated Canadian 'feels' oppressed, he, she or it is oppressed, no matter what form the oppression takes: a facial expression; a random gesture; tone of voice.

Unable to dispute Hagee's actual words, hypersensitive cretins spout drivel about boo-boos inflicted on their notoriously fragile psyches, because Hagee's tone of voice upset them. Welcome to Korrectnik dominated Canada, John, an irrational place where an individual's speech is only as free as the most hypersensitive listener will allow.

John, dude, stay the hell away from Canada. If you stray into that pesthole, they'll probably arrest you for breathing their air.

Afterthoughts
Obviously, Canadian Mecca Maniacs aren't familiar with John's thunderous, 'scare the horns off the Devil' sermons, or they'd know enough to shed their sensitivies before watching his broadcast. When it comes to a take no prisoners sermon, nobody holds a prayer candle to John Hagee. If you can't stand the heat...change the station.

Pagan Travel Advisory
Source: Stealth Wisdom News Wire

If you're 'that close' to visiting Sudan, I strongly suggest that you avoid visiting this Mecca Maniac enclave at this point in time. Why? Because the locals hatched a new, conspiratorial brain-fart and it's a doozy. Certain Sudanese dudes swear that shaking hands with a foreigner made their little soldier disappear. No shit ! One handshake made his winkie "melt into his body".

This rumor is so widespread that this dark continent pest hole's Attorney General ordered a special committee be formed to investigate this nads-melting crisis. Uh, until the Sudanese get this vital - to every dude on the planet - issue resolved, shaking hands falls under a 'do you feel lucky' heading.

Reading Between The Lines
Source: Ananova

Last June, a Dothead dolly fell hard for her macho suitor, so hard that she defied her parents and ran off to Bombay to marry her lover. That was then, but things have changed considerably, during the interval. Her marital bliss ended abruptly with a...revealing Paul Harvey Moment:

'...Papia told police officials that she had no initial inkling that her husband was a woman but made the discovery later. The woman has been charged with abduction on the basis of a complaint by Papia's relatives...' (Ananova)

The last few words in the Ananova excerpt - "a complaint by Papia's relatives" - raises a red flag in this pagan scribbler's fevered brain. Why did the complaint come from the bride's relatives? Can it be that the family tracked Papia down and forcibly terminated the wench's dyke bliss? Enquiring minds want to know.

Afterthoughts
Tragically, journalism continues to plummet to new depths of ineptitude. Why, I ask you, didn't Ananova include some photos of the happy dyke couple? If anyone out there stumbles over a photo of Papia or her wench, fire a copy to this pagan scribbler.

Just Call Him, Lucky
Source: AP

Beset by a looming fiscal disaster, a Thai capitalist knew exactly what to do to make things right: hoist his lucky flag atop the beleaguered factory's building. For those obsessing on a real world businessman who believes in lucky flags, I have the necessary factoids. A fortune teller gave it to him, telling him that flying it from the factory roof would ward off bad luck.

That brings us to our Paul Harvey Moment:

'...Boonchai Lotharakphong, 43, whose factory made sportswear for the U.S. company Nike, died Thursday when he slipped off the roof in Lopburi province, 115 kilometres north of Bangkok...' (AP)

Obviously, this alleged seer needs to sign up for remedial prognostication classes...stat. If this room temperature transition is 'good' luck, I'm afraid to ask what she considers 'bad' luck. Call me a craven coward if you must, but there are some places I won't go, this being a prime example.

Brit Korrectnik Brain-Fart
Source: Sun (UK)

Feeling blue after her hubby left her and two chums achieved room temperature from cancer, a Brit pub landlady advertised for companionship. The tick she scrawled this message on a chalk board outside her pub, her life got much more complicated.

'..."Wanted: part-time single white male, 40-50. Must like cats. Must have a wicked sense of humour to cheer up overworked, underpaid, flu-ravaged, p****d-off pub landlady. Previous applicants and ex-husbands need not reapply."...' (Sun)

That fast, three Korrectnik wenches from a local 'race equity council' accosted our heroine, ordering her to erase her "racist" ad. There were complaints, the Korrectniks insisted. 'Tell someone who cares' our heroine shot back - her actual words had to be much more colorful - before she slammed her door in their faces. Our pub landlady called it "political correctness gone mad" and she's right. Give 'em them hell, darlin. You're one hell of a PIGal .

Sushi Slammer Pervert
Source: Mainichi Daily

A Sushi Slammer dude who wanted to see naked Sushi Slammer wenches, boldly, went where dudes aren't suppose to go: a woman's bath house. How, you ask, did he manage that? He dressed for wench-peeping success.

'...he reportedly wore a wig of long hair, a white blouse, a gray skirt, a bra, and put on lipstick. After taking off his clothes he would hide his front with a towel and then take the towel off just before he got into a jet bath, which made it easier to hide that he was a man because of the bubbles...' (Mainichi)

It worked like gang-busters, the first dozen times, but eventually, some especially perceptive wenches noted the dude's funny walk, ending his peep show adventure. Don't panic, Sushi Slammer dude, you'll be the belle of the ball at your first prison gang bang. Bend over and take it like a man.

Afterthoughts
What is up with Sushi Slammer dudes? Every time you turn around you read stuff that implies they're all perverts. Prime examples include: train groping; school girl fetishes; terminally twisted, bondage-intensive porn...And that's only the tip of the Sushi Slammer pervert iceberg. Stop thinking with your winkies, Sushi Slammer dolts.

Hoisted on 'His?' Own Petard?
Source: Reuters

In 1994 a Thai dude masqueraded as a wench so he could marry a Kraut dude while both lived in Denmark. Fast forward a decade and the 'bloom is off the rose', on marital bliss, so the Thai 'bride' petitions a Kraut court to grant him an annulment. That's when our Fatherland dwelling 'bride' got a judicial reality check:

'...A German court dismissed the Thai's request for an annulment because same-sex marriages are not recognized in Germany, and therefore cannot be reversed...' (Reuters)

Life's a bitch, bride dude.s innocuous as Arab Big Brother will shatter it into a million pieces? Enquiring pagan minds want to know.
