Woah, I broke 100 stars! This is a first for me.

Really informative, but lacking information on the Swiss Guard’s other duties to the Church. For instance, don’t they act as the world’s primary Vampire Slaying unit? I think I saw something about that at the History Channel, right?

Cute, too!

From the (nonexistent) BCO FAQ:

“Isaac Asimov’s Treasury of Humor” has a joke about a group of boys being instructed by an old rabbi. The old guy tells them that they should be sure to avoid any ‘unusual sexual practices’. One boy says: “Rabbi, I don’t know what you mean. I am unfamiliar with the idea of unusual sexual practices.”

They might be abstaining from pork for some kind health reasons (pigs are fat, pork is fatty, etc). Leaves more for me, so I’m OK with it.

I am waiting for a steak house to offer Three Mile Island dressing for their salads!

Oops. You’re right. I mis-wrote my intended contrast between diplomacy and war with Iran. Sorry about that.

It’s probably just as well. Being exposed to such right-wing radiation will cause terrible germline mutations, I’m sure.

Yeah. I kinda get you. I mean, I have really fond feelings for Richard Nixon. I look back with awe to the days of transparency and responsible government that Nixon represented.

OK, now you are seriously creeping me out. I mean, she kind of makes me cringe when I look at her, but now I am really trying to avoid looking directly at her eyes . . .

Yeah. And Dick Cheney should be cooling his heels at The Hague

I’d be barfing on the floor.

Preferably, you should marry the man who raped you, since you are now ‘one flesh’.

Without more children, what will we feed the cannons?
