The Little Army

Stephan came up with an interesting definition for terrorists: what the big army calls the little army. It’s too simplistic to be of any practical use; that’s why I like it.

Avoidance Strategies

Fetus Fettuccine Ban?

Oklahoma is not known for its cuisine beyond large slabs of cow. And now, the menu’s about to get even smaller. Senator Ralph Shortey has introduced Senate Bill 1418 to ban, “the sale or manufacture of food or products which contain aborted human fetuses.”

“You may think it’s ethical to kill a child in the womb,” the politician explained. “But the question now before us is: is it ethical to then use that aborted child for research and development to enhance flavors in food?”

I think fetus fettuccine speaks for itself, although no Oklahoman will be able to hear it if Shortey’s bill becomes law.

Whilst pedaling through the park today, I saw a large truck with a sign on the side that declared, “Trees are the answer.”

Maybe they are; maybe they aren’t. It’s impossible to know in the absence of a question.
