Sister Kathy Avery principal of St. Clare of Montefalco Catholic School in Grosse Point Park Michigan laid down the law on what words are not to be spoken on the play ground of St. Clare of Montefalco. She rattled off a list of words I can only assume that was reminiscent of George Carlin’s seven words you can’t say on television. Needless to say she got the kids attention. But you know kids they’ll forget in a couple of days and be back to their old swearing ways. What she needs to do is teach the kid’s a song so they won’t forget. A song like this one

Don't touch that pole.You do know where it's been?
According to Fox News Darejunkies.com offered $10,000.00 to the best video of young ladies pole dancing on a New York subway car.

God bless these girls . That's what I like about the youth of America they can always be counted on to put their safety and well being on the line for a few bucks for our amusement.
God knows what else is on those poles.

When in Rome...
Apparently there’s a been a big uproar about the Sudan’s government arrest of 54 year old British school teacher Gillian Gibson for allowing her class of 7 year olds to name the class teddy bear after the prophet Mohammed.
Gibson faced 40 lashes (with a whip I assume) and 6 days in jail, which when you consider that the people of Sudan crowded the streets screaming for he death over the outrage didn’t seem so bad.
However the British government was able to appeal to Sudan’s compassionate side and she was released with hide intact.
There was a consensus through out the west that this was a gross over reaction by the people and government of Sudan. After all there are a lot of people in the Moslem world named Mohammed. It appears to be a very common name there.
This is a stark contrast to the English speaking world where you don’t find too many Jesus’ floating around. Yet we don’t hesitate to make a mockery of him-“Battling Jesus Action Figures”-“Bobble Head Jesus Doll” – “Dashboard Jesus” and all of the seemingly blasphemous references made to him on “The Simpsons”-“The Family Guy” and “Southpark”.
The thing is the Moslem people take their religion seriously. They don’t have the luxury of being distracted from the day to day by watching a televised dance contest with “C” list celebrities or watching adults have nervous breakdowns because they can’t out wit elementary school kids.
So before we pass judgment on these people we feel who have over reacted keep in mind Ms Gibson who claimed to know and respect these people arrogantly allowed the naming of this teddy bear without any thought of the consequences.
Of course this does make me wonder how the people of Sudan would have reacted had they named the teddy bear Jesus or Buddha. For that matter how would Christians react
if their children came home and said we named our classes teddy bear “Mohammed or “teddy the Christ”?
Before we get all sanctimonious keep in mind we Americans have our own kind of jihad it’s called litigation. We’d sue the gold fillings out of a hobo’s mouth if our coffees not hot enough.
The real tragedy here is why in a classroom full of 7 year olds who haven’t done s@!#%
to anybody is there only one teddy bear?
I wish we in the western world would be a little more like the Islamic fundamentalists and deal with these knuckle heads running around calling themselves Elvis. There is only one King.
As for Costello and Grbac knoogies to the infidels AYE YE YE YE YE YE

Let them eat cake.
“Too much mercy... often resulted in further crimes which were fatal to innocent victims who need not have been victims if justice had been put first and mercy second.”
Agatha Christie
There is a school of thought that prisons only create more vicious and violent criminals. A bad guy goes in and comes out worse. I actually subscribe to that belief.
Some feel that it is cruel and unusual punishment to lock these prisoners away for 23 hours a day with no contact with there fellow inmates. That would appear to be contradictory to the argument that the prisons don’t work.
You see the reason the inmate becomes more vicious and proficient in their criminal enterprises on the outside is that they are allowed be around other criminals in a quasi
social setting on the inside. Places such as the exercise yard, the showers and the mess hall.
They get to network, which any business person will tell you is one key to success.
They are allowed to exercise which helps build strength and stamina another key to success.
Now where I differ in opinion from most about the prison system is that it is commonly believed that prisons exist to rehabilitate criminals and turn them into productive members of society.
How is this supposed to happen exactly? The vast percentages of people they are around are criminals also and those that aren’t are armed and poised to strike should they step out of line.
These were angry hostile people on the outside when they had their freedom. I can’t imagine that locking them up in a prison for years at a time is going to mellow them anytime soon.
No, prisons aren’t for rehabilitation. Prison is punishment for low life bottom feeders that prey on the weak, the fearful, and the hard working law abiding citizen.
Lock them all in individual cells the size of broom closets and keep them there until they have repaid the debt to society.
After re-reading this I realize that some may think it a bit harsh.
So I propose this. I was speaking to a good friend of mine about this a while back and he feels that the problem with the prisoners is that their testosterone levels are too high. When the inmates are walking about the prison yard, pacing back and forth they resemble savage animals just waiting to attack.
My friend suggests that the prison system do a way with all exercise equipment. And the inmates should not be allowed to spend anytime outdoors.
He also suggests that the prisoners be fed a steady diet of sweets and other fatty foods.
He believes and I agree that the prison system should make a concerted effort to make the inmates morbidly obese. This will instantly kill their sex drive due to the low testosterone levels eliminating most if not all their aggression. And if some still lingers
they won’t be in any condition to act on it.
Now I realize that obesity is serious problem in the world today and this method may seem cruel on the surface but look at it this way they can always work on shedding the pounds when they get back on the outside. Of course the percentage of people whole lose great amounts of fat and keep it off is low it’s still a noble undertaking and a real character builder-hence your “rehabilitation”.
All I’m saying is the good and honest people of our society loathe the wretched scum that over populate the penitentiaries of this fine nation. Ain’t it about time they loathed themselves?

Who needs yor money?... uh you do
“Bureaucracy is the death of all sound work”
Albert Einstein
Albert Einstein
The news the other day was reporting that a charity (didn’t catch which one) was upset by the way a group was going about raising money for them. It seems that this group was sponsoring a golf tournament and was using strippers from local strip clubs as cadies.
Naked cadies.(in case that wasn’t inferred)
A spokeswoman for the charity was appalled and stated that was unacceptable and that they didn’t want their charity to be associated with that kind of behavior.
Now a charity is usually started to bring attention and money to a serious situation such as homelessness or some disease currently incurable. These funds would go towards not only trying to discover a cure (or house the homeless) but also toward trying to bring some comfort into the lives of those suffering.
Now I’m sure there’s a lot of bureaucracy in the charity game and some rich “expletive”
doesn’t want give his hard inherited money to go the same charity some fellow who has to stoop to using young taut bodaciously nubile…uh, you get the idea .
But what kind of message does that send to the parents of a terminally ill child? We can’t use this money it’s “dirty”.
Pablo Escobar could bring me a suit case full of bills soaked in the blood of nuns and I’d take it in a second if I thought there was even a glimmer of hope that it would save my loved one. But hey maybe we’re all being duped maybe all these diseases aren’t as bad as we were led to believe. I mean if a presidential candidate can take money from a communist country like China to help fund their campaign ,then why can’t a charity striving to “find the cure” be selective and refuse the money from a bunch of lovely nature buffs huh? I aint sayin, I’ just sayin. Know what I’m sayin?

I think we've stalled evolution
"Vanity is the quicksand of reason"
George Sand
George Sand
I think we have stalled evolution. 1 in every 500 live births produces a child with Polydactyly or extra digits. Taking into consideration the human population is somewhere in the neighborhood of 6,632,394,084 give or take a birth/death. The percentage isn’t that great. But what if we are impeding the progress of evolution
by having the extra digit removed because “no kid of mine’s gonna be a freak !”
What if the extra digit is needed to help us survive something cataclysmic nature has in store a few centuries from now or to master interstellar travel we need another finger.
“That’s stupid.” Oh really? Why five fingers why not four? What does the pinky do that the ring finger can,t.
Take guitar players for instance when properly taught they re instructed to use the pinky when fingering scales or playing solos or what have you. A lot of self taught guitarist however don’t employ the pinky finger at all and are still amazing players.
What if the only thing that stopped primitive man from slicing off the freakish “fifth finger was that they had more pressing issues. Like hunting/gathering or being hunted / gathered.
Now a lot of the extra digits are non-functioning but on occasion they are. Now the brain has taken this new appendage into consideration and started to build the neuro pathways this new digit will need to do it’s thing. This would increase the brain’s capacity. Take into consideration that the brain regulates all of our
body’s functions from breathing to controlling our blood pressure to disposing of waste. Things that had to be done at different stages of our development or “evolution”
All I’m saying is thanks to the fact that some of you out there won’t take one for the team I’ll probably never get my flying car. Thanks
