A few assorted Bin Laden wisecracks

Of course, not everyone rejoiced hearing about OBL demise. Hamas, for instance, didn't:

Gaza government condemns US slaying of 'Arab holy warrior', asks 'God to offer him mercy with true believers, martyrs'.
It looks like the heartbreak of separation is too much for Hamas top dog, Ismail Haniyeh. Shouldn't someone take care of unification of these two?

A curious text that I would rather leave on the editor's conscience:
Dozens of Arab residents hold rally in support of assassinated al-Qaeda leader in east Jerusalem's Silwan neighborhood...
The word "support" there caused me a double-take. After all, Bin Laden is already beyond support in this world, so could it be that these "Dozens of Arab residents" are eager to support him in his frolics with the 72 virgins?

Speaking of virgins: in his case, due to the rather watery choice of location for his burial, I guess the virgins will be of mermaid persuasion. Osama will have to work on his amorous techniques, adjusting them to the underwater conditions. But no worries, help is coming.

And some related news:
The Arizona Court of Appeals ruled Friday that Cindy Vong can sue over the Arizona Board of Cosmetology's threat to pull her license if she didn't stop offering the pedicure, which uses fish to eat dead skin off clients' feet. The board alleged the fish were unsafe because they couldn't be sterilized.
The emphasis is mine. I wasn't aware of the fact that the cleansing fishes so popular lately in the cosmetic shops are not sterilized. It looks like Bin Laden, willingly or not, will have to submit to some, seemingly unapproved, pedicure methods. I hope he likes it.

Or else...

Heh.

Gotta love Hamas being so stupid. That should give the PA something to think about.

I had a doctor fish treatment last year. I sat in a bath of tepid water while the fish nibbled off bits of my psoriasis plaque. It was actually quite an enjoyable experience.

PA wouldn't. Think, I mean.

To me it looks cool. I shall try the procedure at first opportunity. Wish they ate fat as well.

Unapproved pedicure methods? Now I understand what's bothering the UN.

You got it, Yitzchak.

Snoop, thanks for the crowd you've sent my way. As for sterilized fish, I suppose you could do it, but you'd have to eat the fish afterwards

Your guess is wrong.  No mermaids.  He will however, be receiving 72 sturgeons.

SnoopyTheGoon said...

Well, mermaids, sturgeons, whatever, I wouldn't argue. Long as he gets his dues...

I would say thanks for posting, Akaky, albeit so infrequently.

Hey, Snoop, I'm a sensitive artiste; I can't just turn them out the way those goddam Canadian geese can shit all over my driveway. ;)
