smoking grannies

Two 80 years old ladies are outside their nursing home, having a coffe and a cigarrete, when it starts to rain. One of the old ladies pulls out a condom, cuts off the end, puts it over her cigarette, and continues smoking.

Maude: What in the hell is that?

Mabel: A condom. This way my cigarette doesn't get wet.

Maude: Where did you get it?

Mabel! : You can get them at any drugstore.

The next day, Maude hobbles herself into the local drugstore and asks the pharmacist that she wants a box of condoms.

The pharmacist, embarrassed, looks at her kind of strangely (she is after all, over 80 years of age), and though to himself, wow...Very delicately asks what brand of condom she prefers.

'Doesn't matter Sonny, as long as it fits on a Camel.'

hizbullah / nasrallah

I feels the notion to start to talk and get used to the idea/fact that the two israeli kidnapped soldiers by Hizbullah, over a year ago might be dead.

This is just a scenario unlikely to happen - Nassralla admits publicly of the killings.

BUT there is a news clip I saw - just a few days after the kidnap. - In that clip: Nassralla is asked by a reporter about the the incident... "where are they..?". - He smiles, The man appears a winner, untouchable with a grin that can not read two ways he answers; "They are in a better/good place." CUT. This is so obvious he knows they are dead but won't tell. - There is just no way they are alive after seeing this.

nude - radio head lyrics - in rainbows

Don't get any big ideas
They're not going to happen
You paint yourself white
And fill in the noise
But they'll be something missing

And now that you've found it- its gone

and now that you feel it- you don't
You've gone off the rails

So don't get any big ideas,
They're not going to happen

You'll go to hell for what your dirty mind is thinking

MESS in PAKISTAN

suicide boomer assassinates Pakistan's opposition leader, Benazir Bhutto, she was Pakistan's former prime minister who got fired then re-elected only to get fired again. - She lived in exile and was allowed to returned to politics only to die. - her two brothers and father where murdered in the past. Pakistan has over 50 nuclear bombs....

Egypt + Israel = talk

The Issue - Gaza - as usual - None want ownership on the neighborhood - but both have major interest in the region. Talk is good - talk is very good - keep on talking - and listen too.

Arms dealing

It's been announced - Russia is selling S-300 missiles to Iran - a new strong defense missiles some say better than the Patriot. - Iran will pay about $300 million a year....- what does that mean ? - It's an on going deal - not a one time trade ? - This world is going DOWN. - Russia+Iran+Syria >VS.< US+Israel
(update - 12-28-07)
Russia - denies everything about the arms deal. Iran does not.

the birth of "God's SUN"

Today is Jesus Birthday - Is it really ? - watch part one of ZEITGEIST, this movie - starts around min 9. - would you say the same after?

EARTH QUAKES

The Palestinians just came out with the claim that the Jews have the technology to create false earthquakes 5.5 and higher on Richter's scale. They believe the jews will use this technology to bring down the temple of the rock in Jerusalem,

- no matter what happens on this planet - I guess - just - blame the jews - how easy -

- Do you think the jews have the capability to shake the earth?
