WARNING, WARNING, IT'S THE FRIDAY FOLLIES!

No, my arms aren't exactly flailing like the Lost In Space robot, but regardless, it's Friday and time to examine a few things:

1) Is It Any Wonder? Is it any wonder why Islamists blow themselves up on a regular basis:

No Jesus, No Christmas, No music, No television, No cheerleaders, No baseball, No football, No hockey, No golf, No tailgate parties, No Wal-Mart, No Home Depot, No pork BBQ, No hot dogs, No burgers, No chocolate chip cookies, No lobster, No shellfish or even frozen fish sticks, No gumbo, No jambalaya, No Beer, No wine, Rags for clothes and towels for hats, .Constant wailing from the guy next-door because he's sick and there are no doctors., Constant wailing from the guy in the tower, More than one wife, You can't shave. Your wives can't shave. You can't shower to wash off the smell of donkey cooked over burning camel dung. The women have to wear baggy dresses and veils at all times.Your bride is picked by someone else. She smells just like your donkey.but your donkey has a better disposition. Then they tell you that when you die it all gets better????! I mean, really, is there a mystery here?

And some recent Islamic outrages:

• A British school teacher in Sudan is convicted for blasphemy, FOR NAMING A STUFFED BEAR MOHAMMED??????!! (and NUMEROUS Islamic adherents are now clamoring for this teacher's death now. Lovely!)



• A Saudi woman who was cruelly and horribly gang-raped got sentenced to jail herself and 200 lashings, FOR BEING IN THE COMPANY OF UNRELATED MEN????! (I tell ya, Islamic justice is really something else!) And of course, her assailants got off real lightly.
  

2) In Memoriam: Evel Knievel 1938-2007: Wow, this took me by surprise! The notorious daredevil on a two-wheeler who cheated death hundreds of times over, succumbed to the ravages of diabetes and pulmonary fibrosis today at the age of 69. Like him or not, you had to admire the man for his originality, style and sheer fearlessness. More details HERE

3) To Any Nano-Technology Researchers That Are Reading: Could you PLEASE come up with a way for laundry to do itself?

4) Bizarre/Hilarious Ironies #19007: In Palermo Italy, a Mafioso, Michele Catalano was arrested at his house, get this, while watching a mini-series on TV about a Mafioso getting busted by the police!! The story HERE

5) And Lastly: I apologize for this rather brief and LATE edition of The Friday Follies, I've been juggling a few things here, mostly related to getting my upcoming CD ready for release very shortly, a separate blog post will cover that.

Happy Belated Friday Everyone, and as George Clinton and the P-Funk Mob exhorted us a few decades ago, THINK, THINK, IT AIN'T ILLEGAL YET!
