I wish “Ahmad Oakly” would stop sending penis enlargement e-mails to my work account. Has he no shame?

Less funny though are the recent arrests in the Barcelona.
It’s early days still, and it’s not being reported in the UK, but initial leaked indications suggest they were going to attack public transport in the city last weekend.

“We dont. Stories are cute lessons”

I don’t care how good their intentions are, these PC retards are as guilty of fomenting racism as the BNP. I mean, why would they want to give fodder to JihadWatch?

Okay, on second thoughts Clairwil said “no politics or serious stuff”, but I thought the point above needed to be made.

No more from me on this issue.

Extract from that BBC article:

But judges at this year’s Bett Award said that they had “concerns about the Asian community and the use of pigs raises cultural issues”.

What the hell does the use of pigs have anything to do with “Asian culture” ?

We dont. Stories are cute lessons, we tell them all the time, animals in stories arent haram, they are creatures. animals feature in our stories from hatem tai to hoja nasruddin.

This is one of those “aaargh that PC brigate always giving into the ‘slims demands.. first they take our boring jobs, then they object to us shooting them now they want us to change our cute little bedtime stories” affairs.

Thankyou BBC for bringing one up yet again.

Regarding #12, why would muslims object to pigs in children stories?

PM Brown in India talked of ‘failed states’. Well, one is Israel – so how does Britian support it? Did the Indian PM (the one with the permanent deadpan expression) raise this matter? Did he demand back the Kohinoor diamond, or reparations for the Amritsar massacre or the loot by the East Indian Co?

Brown pompously says he backs India for a permanent seat at UNSC – but did the Indian PM (the one with the vacuous expression) point out why Britain (with 60m people) still has a permanent seat? And did he question Britain why it is still in Iraq?

More likely, the Indian PM will fawn and fumble about, still regarding Brown as Master.

I wonder, Is she actually using baby wipes?

She seems nice enough, but kind of creepy. My new roommate. I find her sitting in the dark watching TV, smelling like used baby diapers. Maybe she is trying to conserve energy by keeping the lights turned off (which is good)… last night when I was headed out for some drinks, she looked at me very very strange as I sing songed, “Goodbye!”

My AC adapter is dying on me. Piece of crap Toshiba.

Sunny, I am watching you…

This is a very nice new song by the famous Punjabi singer Gurdas Maan that's currently doing the rounds on some of the Asian music satellite channels: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5c04EOBmrik&feature=related Brilliant singer, very distinctive voice (quite powerful too), charismatic guy. ************* Slightly older (from last year, I think), this is a mellow and very poignant track by Kailash Kher from the Bollywood movie "Salaam-e-Ishq"; quite a long song, but nice stuff anyway. Also, spot the London landmarks in the background. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNTu50gQcEM

Tax return. No, I don’t want to talk about it.

Desi, try googling “Goodsphere”. They ionise, clean and perfume the air, and use very little in the way of energy.

My new roommate smells like diapers and baby wipes.

I can’t wait until I move out.
