Annan: “I repeat: Hostilities in Lebanon must stop. But while they continue, it is imperative to establish safe corridors for humanitarian workers and relief supplies to reach the civilian population.”**
mallrat: “Whatever, bro. You forgot my straw. And that’s my 83 cents change you just slipped into your apron pocket, too.”

A Modern Parable:

Keep your left up, boys. Jab and move.
SB: along
came a spider
Now someone’s going to accuse you of insinuating that African-Americans* are only worthy of working in the food service industry.
*(yes, I’m aware he’s not American, but I’ve actually heard people on TV refer to black people from other countries as “African-Americans” more than once)
Excellent mojo, excellent…
Can I have an Orange Julius while fasting if Kofi Kuddles serves it to me?
I agree with Kofi. It’s time to stop the senseless, brazen, barbaric attacks against lesbians everywhere.
Mojo,
Thanks for that.
Really.
I can’t say I enjoyed that parable much. Sounded a little, uh, florid, to me.
Israel, in my opinion, can do whatever it wants. I have said here on several occasions that they have not done so, because they don’t want to do so. The buzz today, again, is that they do not want to make a full-scale ground invasion, and the buzz from the military experts (again) is that if they do not, they are wasting their time bombing. Now I note that Israelis have again gone in and taken heavy casualties (around 10), this time due to a helicopter crash. But, if you recall, it was a helicopter crash that was the straw that broke the camel’s back that led to Israel’s withdrawal from Lebanon in the first place. Again, Israel is in a tough position right now.
Whereas Katyusha rockets blindly fired into Israeli population centers? Those must be ”unforeseeable and acceptable targeting of civilians” since they’re not equally condemned nor even mentioned.
BLTinCO: “Dammit Kofi you blundering wuss, you nicked my cup again with the blender. I want a new cup and I don’t want to hear your excuses about US aggression on the part of the blender.”
Orange Julius Assistant Manager:
“Hey Kofi? Come here a sec, I need to talk to you. Listen I’m going to have to let you go, there’s been too many complaints about you.”
“What do you mean what about? How about your blatant discrimination of the Schwartzes from the jewelry store down the mall, while you keeps giving that Abdullah guy from the Oriental rug place the employee discount, after I told you not to? Or the fact that was the third time today I’ve seen you try to pocket someones change? Not to mention the teeniebopper you tried to ‘get with’ in the storeroom the other day. Forget it, man you’re out of here.”
“Whatever dude. And for the record? Giving your kid and his buddies 18 ‘free samples’ in a row? Not cool, man, not cool at all”
TW: form, Kofi needs to fill out his form before he gets to the head of the unemployment line.
Orange Julius: “What I don’t get is why there’s a whole chain of stores selling a drink named after me and my bad case of jaundice.”
– They tried the “fuzzy frog legs” McGehee…. didn’t sell….
Wow; I hadn’t thought about an Orange Julius in decades. Do they still exist? I figured they went away because they used raw eggs (right?) in the mix, which might have salmonella. Good stuff!
Orange Julius fell on hard financial times right after the Feds put salmonella on the endangered species list. They tried Orange Stellone using raw beef, but then they ran into the mad cow thing. Just one thing after another….
Must have been the “Nair” aftertaste.
