Frenchman Dives In

The actual headline reads...

High-speed train toilet attempts to eat Frenchman

And the subtitle reads...

Arm trapped in satanic sucking dunny.

The story is short, a Frenchman dropped something called a mobe into the toilet and when he reached in to retrieve a mobe, the man managed to get his arm stuck.
I picture the little man wearing a black beret, horizontally stripped jersey without a collar, and having a skinny mustache, one arm stuck in the head and the other waving an impromptu flag of white toilet paper in embarrassed surrender.
On a cultural aside, it seems the Brits have many names for the toilet.
With a little research it I've found that a mobe is slang for mobile phone, or in our culture, a cell phone.
Hang around you'll learn a lot, if you don't know very much.

Woman Says Husband's Brain Missing

If you go to the link the full title reads..

N.Y. Woman Says Husband's Brain Missing, Illegally Used for Medical Research

To read a little farther explains that the husband is in fact, dead. It seems that the body was accidentally taken from the office of the Suffolk County Medical Examiner and used for medical research. The widower seeks $4,000,00.00 in damages.
You can almost see Marty Feldman, as Igor (pronounced Eye-gore), grabbing the wrong brain for Doctor Frederick Fronkensteen, son of Mary Shelley's Victor Frankenstein.
One of the better exhanges in a Mel Brooks movie....

Igor: "Dr. Frankenstein"
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: "Fronkensteen"
Igor: "You're putting me on."
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: "No, it's pronounced 'Fronkensteen'."
Igor: "Do you also say 'Froaderick'?"
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: No... 'Frederick'."
Igor: "Well, why isn't it 'Froaderick Fronkensteen'?"
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: "It isn't; it's 'Frederick Fronkensteen'."
Igor: "I see."
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: "You must be Igor. [He pronounces it ee-gor]"
Igor: "No, it's pronounced 'eye-gor'."
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: "But they told me it was 'ee-gor'."
Igor: "Well, they were wrong then, weren't they?"

The Guys' Rules

At last a guy has taken the time to write this all down We always hear "the rules " from the female side.
Now here are the rules from the male side. These are our rules! Please note.. these are all numbered "1" ON PURPOSE!
1. Men are NOT mind readers.

1. Learn to work the toilet seat. You're a big girl. If it's up, put it down. We need it up, you need it down. You don't hear us complaining about you leaving it down.

1. Sunday sports. It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides. Let it be.

1. Shopping is NOT a sport. And no, we are never going to think of it that way.

1. Crying is blackmail.

1. Ask for what you want. Let us be clear on this one: Subtle hints do not work! Strong hints do not work! Obvious hints do not work! Just say it!

1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.

1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.

1. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a Problem. See a doctor.

1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become null and void after 7 Days.

1. If you won't dress like the Victoria's Secret girls, don't Expect us to act like soap opera guys.

1. If you think you're fat, You probably are. Don't ask us.

1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one

1. You can either ask us to do something or tell us how you want it done. Not both. If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.

1. Whenever possible, Please say whatever you have to say during commercials.

1. Christopher Columbus did NOT need directions and neither do we.

1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not A color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.

1. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.

1. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," We will act like nothing's wrong. We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.

1. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, Expect an answer you don't want to hear.

1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine. Really.

1. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as SEX, CARS, the shotgun formation, or BASKETBALL.

1. You have enough clothes.

1. You have too many shoes.

1. I am in shape. Round IS a shape!

1. Thank you for reading this. Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight; but did you know men really don't mind that? It's like camping.

Trick or Treat

Forwarded by dgj. In my neighborhood the kids aren't lazy about traipsing around for candy. They are up to the age of 16, and no make effort to put on a costume. Just the candy sir.

I zoomed in on this thing and it did not appear to be PhotoShopped, probably is though.

On behalf of President Bush, thank you for your correspondence.

We appreciate hearing your views and welcome your suggestions.

Due to the large volume of e-mail received, the White House cannot
respond to every message.

Thank you again for taking the time to write.

Being an active citizen, I've sent many letters and faxes to my
Congressional Senators, Congressional Representative, as well as the
President. What I sent to the White House, now I do not remember. From
all I've received at least an acknowledgement, usually through the mail.
President Bush deserves some appreciation for being our defender, and
weathering the constant blame the elite press assigns and the naive
followers accept without thought.

Imus In The Morn

As the Father Cardinal John O'Connor used to say.
On the way to work today playing Don Imus on the radio. He was interviewing John McCain. It is painful for me to listen to this presidential candidate, he seems to struggle for the right words almost as much as George W Bush mangles syllables (in his words sill-AH-bluz). Polish has little effect on me though, both are honorable, decent men who care about leadership above socialistic goals.
Having listened to Imus for close to 40 years, I am a fan, that thinks he made an excellent point from his own personal experience.
When Don Imus made the distasteful remarks about the women's basketball players from Rutgers, Obama was one of the first senators to stand up and call for Imus to be fired. In contrast, when Reverend Wright's inflammatory racial sermons became part of the national news, Obama's reaction was to distance himself and continue to show respect for the religious zealot, no repudiations, no calls for dismissal, no suggestions of punishment. The point was well taken by me, but surely falls on the deaf ears of, supposed, enlightened followers. This is a parallel to the behavior of Muslim Arabs. All actions taken by Israel and the United States are crimes against god and given full support in liberal Anglo media. Whereas the actions of the Arabs in terroristic defense of Islam are given the benefit of the doubt by both their religious leaders and the sycophantic press.
I agree with Don Imus, the candidate Obama is a hypocrite.
