Britain and Iran raise the stakes

Britain and Iran have raised the diplomatic and propaganda temperature in the battle over the 15 captured British sailors and marines.

Row, Row, Row Your Navel Vessel

“Rowing is a skillful, if tedious, practice that takes perfection but also directs the vessel.” —Wikipedia


Row, row, row your navel vessel
Gently into international waters,
Merrily, merrily, merrily,
Until Iran seizes it in the name of Al Fater,
And Blair demands “gimme back my man”
Or the shit will hit the proverbial fan—
Merrily, merrily, merrily,
We’re going to bomb Iran.

Senate backs Iraq withdrawal date

US troops in Iraq: Coming home soon?

The US Senate has passed a bill calling for all US combat troops to leave Iraq within a year, defying a veto threat.

Iraqus Interuptus

also known as withdrawal or the pull out method, is a method of de-occupation in which, during armed occupation, the Americans are removed from Iraq prior to stabilization, primarily to avoid introducing peace into the region. Coitus interruptus may also more generally refer to any extraction of the army prior to ejaculation during intercourse. This method has been widely used for at least 2,000 years and was used by an estimated 38 million nations worldwide in 1991. Iraqus interruptus often results in pregnancy and civil war.

From the Journals of Star Trek the Next Generation's Wesley Crusher

I had to wait outside the holodeck
for like 3 hours waiting for
the captain to finish pretending
he's sherlock holmes. I finally got
in there and was
banging the 6 tited alien chick
in my harem program
when Jordi La Forge barged in.
He was all like
what the f--- are you doing
and I said, what does it look
like I'm doing
and he said, you can' t do
that in here. And i said
what, are you going to tell my mom.
he didn't say anything
so I swiped his glasses from him
and loaded my nascar racetrack
program.
