Explosively Stupid
Source: PIG News Wire [01/28/12]
Our hero - henceforth Einstein - is a 22 year old Kiwi dude who lives in Masterton (New Zealand, DUH). Among other things, Einstein is a stoner, a fun fact that plays a vital role in this fiery fun. For those who care, this story's essential ingredients are: our stoner, his cannabis pipe, a 9kg cylinder of LPG gas, and a cigarette lighter.
Hunkered down in the laundry room of his home, Einstein was "pre heating" his pipe, before he started smoking his weed. The sequence - not to mention the results - is exactly what you think.
Step 1: He opened the 'modified' valve on the gas cylinder.
Step 2: He gave the gas a few moments to reach the proper levels.
Step 3: He flicked his BIC.
Step 4: KA-BOOM!
Step 5: Thanks to Old Ka-Boom's fools and drunks (includes stoners) exemption, Einstein lived to be stupid on another day, but the price is a painful one: burns to his face, arm, thigh and knee.
The proper authorities say that Einstein lucked out. If the entire gas cylinder had gone off, it would have killed him, leveled the house and injured the other occupants of the house. Does this mean Einstein learned his lesson? I seriously doubt it.
Sticking It To Crime
Source: PIG News Wire [01/28/12]
Our crimestopper is an 88 year old Brit - Gordon King - who, back in the day, served as police officer. His crime busting instincts might be a little rusty and he's not as spry as he was, back then, but he still has what it takes, when the need arises.
While out and about, Gordon noticed a security van pull up at a Lloyd's money emporium. Something seemed wrong, when only one man emerged from the van, so Gordon took a second, longer look. His instincts kicked in, when he saw two robbers attacking the security van driver.
Heading across the road, Gordon started beating on one of the desperados with his walking stick. He pummeled the thief, repeatedly, breaking his stick over the desperado's head in the process. The good news is that his arrival persuaded the thieves to beat a hasty retreat. The bad news is that they got away with a 'substantial' amount of money.
We the PIGs salute Gordon for sticking it to crime. You're our kind of guy.

An Indonesian dude named Alexander is staring 5 years in a Graybar Hotel because he found that ultra elusive rascal 'get over it'. Born into Mecca Mania, Alexander stayed the course for the first 28 years of his life. Then, in 2008, when he least expected it, Alexander found his 'get over it' and put it to good use, by dropping Mecca Mania like a bad habit.
Painfully aware of all the crime being perpetrated, and horrified by the natural disasters which struck with depressing regularity, Alexander thought it over and decided that God doesn't exist:
"If God exists, why do bad things happen?" he asked. "There should only be good things if God is merciful." (London Telegraph)
Given the level of Islamikaze 'tolerance' in Indonesia, Alexander was skating on very thin ice. His atheism didn't need to invite trouble, if he could keep his mouth shut. For good or ill, he couldn't, a fun fact that yielded predictable results:
The Indonesian Council of Ulema, the Islamic religious authority, reported him over his remarks on a Facebook page he moderated which said: "God does not exist" Mr Alexander, 31, turned up at his government planning offices in Dharmasraya, western Sumatra, on Wednesday to be confronted by a group of men who beat him and then took him to the police. (Telegraph)
The Islamikazes insist that Alexander used passages from the Koran to diss the Mecca Maniac deity. That's 'blasphemy' which is no joke in this Islamikaze infested blight on the globe:
Under the Indonesian criminal code blasphemy is defined as publicly expressing feelings or taking some action that spreads hatred, abuse or taints a religion in a way it would cause someone to disbelieve any of the country's six official religions.
PIG News applauds Alexander for having the courage of his convictions. We wish him luck, lots of luck, because he's going to need it.
Panic At 35,000 Feet

The fun started at 3 a.m., while British Airways Flight 206 - Miami to London - was 35,000 feet above the Atlantic Ocean. If anyone was sleeping, they were jolted awake by 'it'. 'It', in this instance was a real thriller.
'It' was a taped message, a taped message which was greeted with screams from the passengers, especially when it was repeated:
An Edinburgh man said, "It was about 3:00am. An alarm sounded, and we were told we were about to land in the sea. I thought we were going to die. My wife was crying, and passengers were screaming. Then they played an announcement telling us to just ignore the warnings." (Fox News)
By the time the pland landed, the suits at British Airways were fully engrossed in damage control, sort of...I doubt that the letters of apology they handed out will save them from a deluge of lawsuits.
A BA spokesman said of the scare en route to Heathrow on Friday, "The cabin crew canceled the announcement immediately and sought to reassure customers that the flight was operating normally. We apologize to customers for causing them undue concern."
Nice try, spokeshole Sparky, but it's too little, too late.

It's not breaking news when those notorious funsters, Hamas, pull the plug on a singing competition, which they deem, "indecent". Such things are, they insist un-Islamic. Blah, Blah, Blah.
What makes this tidbit PIG-worthy is the jaw-dropping fact that the Palestinians perpetrated their own version of "American Idol", which the Palestinians named "New Star". If that doesn't get it done for you, there's one more relevant fact: this is the third season for "New Star".

I'm not the least bit surprised that the sinking of the Italian cruise ship, Costa Concordia, has everyone asking questions. I am, admittedly, surprised that nobody is asking the RIGHT questions.
* Given the speed that Captain Francesco Schettino covered the distance from his ship to Giglio island, how close did he come to the world record for the 100 yard dash?
* How did a fool like Francesco become Captain of any ship larger than kayak?
* Given the chaos which passes for government in Italy, why would anyone think that an Italian cruise ship would be operated with greater efficiency?
* Now that he's demonstrated his unique way of coping with a crisis, is Francesco Schettino destined to become Italy's next prime minister?
* Given this utter and complete breakdown in professionalism by the stricken ship's crew, why would anyone with a hint of synaptic activity roll fate's dice by taking a cruise aboard and Italian cruise ship?
* Captain Schettino abandoned his command faster than a General in the French Army. Is there a French surrender monkey hiding in the family tree?

Our heroine is a Kiwi woman named Rachel Beer. She's a woman who, ironically enough. makes her own brewskies. Eager to strut her stuff, Rachel attended what Kiwis call an A&P show (something like a county fair) so she could enter her "Beer's Beer" in the home brewed beer contest. No harm, no foul? Not exactly.
Beer was told by the chief steward of the event, held at Lake Hayes in the central South Island near Queenstown, that she could enter her tipple, but it wouldn't be judged.
"There's no point entering a beer if it's not going to be judged whether it's gold or mud," the 36-year-old said, adding that it was time the organizers of the event changed the rules to "meet modern times."
Show president Mike Smith said he was not aware there was a brewing contest at the annual event, and suggested Beer put forward a proposal for a women's or mixed section next year.
The President of the Brewers' Guild of New Zealand, Ralph Bungard, said the rule was ridiculous because traditionally it was a woman's job to brew the beer, just as it was to bake the bread. "It was a very female profession," he said. (Fox News)
I'm compelled to wonder what the 'boys' are afraid of. Aren't they over that 'girls are icky' crap, yet? Grow up, Kiwi dudes.
Diplomatic 'Chin Music'
Source: PIG News Wire [01/06/12]
During an interview with a Kraut publication, Märkische Oderzeitung, Poland's ambassador to Germany got thrillingly real about a crime problem which involves Poland and Germany. When asked about the large number of cars which are stolen in Germany then end up in Poland, Ambassador Marek Prawda didn't pull his punches.
"I want to say, it is initially a problem for the police in the country where the cars are stolen," he said. "They have to tackle it more effectively. Perhaps it is also too easy to steal cars in Germany?"
Asked whether the subject of Polish car thieves working in Germany was a concern in Poland – and whether their activities damage relations between the two countries – Prawda said Polish and German police were working together on the problem, and that he had heard positive reports of their work.
"The Polish police put great weight on prevention in their fight against car theft," he said. "And I think it helps less in this question to talk about the damage to political relations rather than doing more to prevent it." (The Local)
"Perhaps it is also too easy to steal cars in Germany?" That's PIGishly snarky. Nice footwork, Ambassador.

By day, Tony Williams worked as an orderly in an Aussie medical facility: Gold Coast Hospital. After work, Tony became the lead singer in a band named Sex 'N' Chocolate. If you're thinking that crowded schedule kept him too busy for romance, you're tragically deluded.
This week, Tony's schedule became much less crowded, after someone beat him to death, by applying the proverbial blunt instrument to Tony's head. So what? So this...
When the cops started working the case, they sent out a public appeal for any women who had been in a relationship with Tony. Did their appeal yield any results? You better believe it, Sparky:
Detective Superintendent David Hutchinson said the 38-year-old, New Zealand-born father-of-two was known to be a ladies' man.
Police sources told goldcoast hundreds of nurses had since come forward admitting they had relationships with Williams, whose day job was as an orderly at the Gold Coast Hospital.
Police were shocked at the endless line of women who admitted to flings with the entertainer, sources said. (Gold Coast Bulletin)
It's a minor miracle, that Tony didn't die of exhaustion, from all that boinking. |

Promised Land Assholes

Our heroine is an 8 year old second grader named Naama Margolese. She's afraid to walk to school, because THEY take a perverse delight in accosting her, intimidating her, spitting on her, and calling her a whore for dressing "immodestly". I know what you're thinking, but there are some additional facts you need to know.
* Naama lives in Beit Shemesh, in central Israel.
* She attends a religious school for Jewish girls.
* She wears long-sleeved dresses with demur - by any rational standard - skirts.
* The asshats who physically and verbally, assault her are NOT school age dudes. The asshats who are terrorizing this 8 year old wenchlet are, in fact, Ultra-orthordox Jewish men whose attitude about females is almost as reprehensible as that of their Islamikaze brothers in female phobia.
The new girls school that Naama attends in the city of Beit Shemesh, to the west of Jerusalem, is on the border between an ultra-Orthodox neighborhood and a community of modern Orthodox Jewish residents, many of them American immigrants.
The ultra-Orthodox consider the school an encroachment on their territory. Dozens of black-hatted men jeer and physically accost the girls almost daily, the students say.
Televised images of Naama sobbing en route to school have shocked many Israelis, elicited statements of outrage from the country's leadership, sparked a Facebook page with nearly 10,000 followers dedicated to "protecting little Naama" and plans for a demonstration later Tuesday in her honor. As the case has attracted attention, extremists have heckled and thrown eggs and rocks at journalists descending on town.
"Who's afraid of an 8-year-old student?" said Sunday's main headline in the leading Yediot Ahronot daily.
Beit Shemesh's growing ultra-Orthodox population has erected street signs calling for the separation of sexes on the sidewalks, dispatched "modesty patrols" to enforce a chaste female appearance and hurled stones at offenders and outsiders. Walls of the neighborhood are plastered with signs exhorting women to dress modestly in closed-necked, long-sleeved blouses and long skirts.
Naama's case has been especially shocking because of her young age and because she attends a religious school and dresses with long sleeves and a skirt. Extremists, however, consider even that outfit, standard in mainstream Jewish religious schools, to be immodest. (Fox News)
When it comes to extremely orthodox religiosity, all the flavors of religion are strikingly alike, in their mindless zeal to dictate every move an individual - even individuals outside their sect - is allowed to make.
North Korean Grinches?

When a Seoul Toll Booth spotted a 'tree shaped' tower on a military-controlled hill near the border between the two Koreas, it gave them an idea. If they festooned it with colored lights, they'd have a 98 foot tall Christmas tree that would be visible in a major North Korean city, Kaesong, just north of the border.
You won't need a Nostradamus quatrain to predict that those relentlessly fun North Koreans had a hissy fit over what they deemed "psychological warfare".
The North's official website, Uriminzokkiri, called the plan "a mean attempt for psychological warfare" against the communist state and threatened to retaliate immediately if the lights are switched on.
The 511-feet hill in the South, about two miles from the border, is within range of North Korean gunfire.
The tree-shaped, 98-feet high steel structure is illuminated by thousands of small light bulbs and can be seen from the North's major city of Kaesong just north of the border, according to media reports.
"The enemy warmongers ... should be aware that they should be held responsible entirely for any unexpected consequences that may be caused by their scheme," Uriminzokkiri said. "This issue ... is not something to be ignored quietly." (Fox News)
How thrilling must it be for South Korea to have a Nation filled with relentlessly hostile, heavily armed, raving lunatics sharing the Korean peninsula with them? Very, and that's an egregious understatement.
Sandbox Cuts Criminal Recidivism Down To Size

In the Sandbox (PIGlish for Saudi Arabia), justice isn't a blindfolded lady holding a set of scales. It's a grim-faced, humor-challenged, dude in a moo-moo, who traded in the blindfold for some dish rag headgear, and swapped the scales for a sword. That sword came in handy, this week, when the Sandbox's executioner chopped off Amina bint Abdul Halim bin Salem Nasser's head. Her crime, aside from being a female denizen of the Sandbox? She was practicing witchcraft and sorcery, in a 7th century realm where only one form of mystical mumbo jumbo - Islam - is allowed.
Parting shot: For good or ill, beheading 'criminals' for such petty infractions is, undoubtedly, a crude, but VERY effective way to exterminate a criminal recidivism problem. It's glass half full time in the PIGdom.
Compelling Myth of The Week
Source: PIG News Wire [12/09/11]
This reeks of cyberspace myth, but I don't give a damn. Why? Because it's so much fun. Yes, I admit it. I WANT to believe it.
The source cited by Fox News, is an Egyptian website, Bikya Masr. Bikya Masr says they got it from a religious publication, el-Senousa, but nobody has managed to prove that the el-Senousa article cited actually exists.
With that out of the way, here's the most insane thing ever attributed to an Islamikaze:
An Islamic cleric living in Europe reportedly has warned Muslim women not to get too close to bananas, cucumbers or other produce -- to avoid having "sexual thoughts."
The unnamed cleric, whose directive was featured in an article in el-Senousa, a religious publication, purportedly said that if women wanted to eat these foods, a third party -- preferably a male related to them, such as their father or husband -- should cut the items into small pieces before serving, the Egyptian website Bikya Masr reported.
Carrots and zucchini also were added to the alleged cleric's list of forbidden foods for women.
BikyaMasr.com said the cleric, identified only as a sheikh, was asked in the interview how to "control" women when they are shopping for groceries, and whether holding these items at the market would be bad, to which he replied that the matter was between them and God. (Fox News)
Given the well-documented fact that sexuality - their own, primarily - terrifies them, Mecca Maniac alleged men punish women for the Islamikaze male's inability to control their own sexual impulses. Although this food phobia yarn is probably a hoax, it's not that far removed from prevailing Islamikaze female phobia antics.
Did The Devil Make Them Do It?

I'm delighted to report that the demented devils who perpetrate Hell Pizza haven't lost their ability to 'thrill' the snot out of humor challenged Kiwis. This time out, the thrill-inducing idea from Hell is the "misfortune cookie". What is it? It's exactly what the name "misfortune cookie" implies. Instead of containing a dose of optimism for the recipient's future, the cookie warns of a misfortune that will befall the recipient. No harm, no foul? It is, to a rational adult, which excludes at least one Hell Pizza customer.
Tamsyn Clemeson was differently thrilled when her misfortune cookie warned "you will marry a transgender". Outraged, Tamsyn spread the word, and set off a wildfire of hostility toward PIG's favorite pizza wrangling capitalists. By Monday, the heat from incident which transpired on Friday forced Hell Pizza co-founder, Stu McMillin, to issue an apology dissing Gender Benders:
"We have caused offence, and contributed to the bigotry that hurts LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) people all over the world every day, and we regret this," he said in a statement to NZ Newswire. "We like to be irreverent and cheeky, and most of the time we think we get it right. On this occasion we experienced a sense of humour failure."
He said the misfortune would be removed from the company's next batch of cookies. (NZN)
Is Hell Pizza getting soft? Perhaps, but We the PIGs still hold them in high esteem.
A Mammoth Undertaking
Source: PIG News Wire [12/09/11]
With nothing better to do, some Japanese and Ruskie lab coated hooligans are poised to take a trip down memory lane. How? Armed with 'well preserved bone marrow in a mammoth thighbone which they found in Siberia, these hooligans are tinkering with the notion of cloning a mammoth.
The scientists from the Sakha Republic's mammoth museum and Kinki University's graduate school will begin research next year to regenerate the huge mammal, which became extinct about 10,000 years ago.
They will transplant nuclei from the bone marrow cells into elephant egg cells whose nuclei were removed through a type of cloning. The process can create an embryo that can be planted into an elephant womb for birth. (Fox News)
Why, you ask, are they going to do it? Because they can. What, you ask, are they going to do with a mammoth? I haven't got a clue, and I don't think they know, either. If they run out of ideas, We the PIGs might take it off their hands, at least temporarily. The brute will scare the crap out of that terminally hostile mutt next door, the one who makes everyone in the PIG bunker miserable.

Big Brother Speaks French
Source: PIG News Wire [11/30/11]
The fun fact about Quebec is that the government's obsession with being French is more than skin deep. In their mindless zeal to be French, Quebec's relevant officials have immersed themselves in being French so completely, Quebec officials are more obsessive about defending their French 'heritage' than their counterparts in La Belle France.
How obsessive? This obsessive:
Fact: Montreal's cess-schools have 110,000 in mates.
Fact: 53% of those eager scholars have a native tongue that is NOT French
Fact: Montreal's Commission scolaire de Montreal just issued a new tenet for the code of conduct that requires all of the school system's inmates must speak French, at all times during the school day.
Fact: Roving Language Nazi's will browbeat anyone who is caught speaking any other - not French - language into speaking the one, only, APPROVED language.
Quebec's Charter of the French Language, Bill 101, requires children of immigrants to attend French-language schools. This has led to generations of allophone Quebecers - those whose mother tongue is neither French nor English - who are perfectly at ease in French. Up until now, the rules have applied inside the classroom only.
But fears French will be swamped by English are not easily assuaged.
This year, the separatist Parti Québécois committed to extending Bill 101's provisions to the pre-university colleges known as CEGEPs if elected, which would prohibit adults from attending the school of their choice.
Pauline Marois, the PQ leader, has even toyed with the idea of applying Bill 101 to toddlers attending subsidized daycares. (Ottowa Citizen)
In Montreal's cess-schools, 'the right to remain silent takes on a new meaning: if it ain't FRENCH, STFU.
Sandbox Moonbattery
Source: PIG News Wire [11/30/11]
A Sandbox Egghead has set a new record for rectal-cranial inversion, thanks to his latest female-phobia induced brainfart. It's name is Kamal Subhi, a former professor at King Fahd University, who now toils on Saudi Arabia's highest religious council: the Majlis al–Ifta' al-A'ala. His latest task for the council concerns relaxing the rules which prevent women from driving.
This cringing cretin betrayed his nadless condition, when he fired off a report about letting women drive to the Sandbox's legislative assembly.
It warned that allowing women to drive would "provoke a surge in prostitution, pornography, homosexuality and divorce".
Within 10 years of the ban being lifted, it claimed, there would be "no more virgins" in the Islamic kingdom.
It pointed out that "moral decline" could already be seen in those other Muslim countries in which women are allowed to drive.
In the report Prof Subhi described sitting in a coffee shop in an unnamed Arab state where "all the women were looking at me".
"One made a gesture that made it clear that she was available," he said. "This is what happens when women are allowed to drive." (London Telegraph)
Professor Subhi is, based on my vaunted 'poles and holes' gender identity system, technically, male, but he is no longer entitled to the designation 'man'. He is, instead, that infamously gutless wonder, a Girlieman. Does that mean what you think it means? It does if you think it makes him the Politically Incorrect Gazette's Girlieman of the Week.
Your Cell Phone is Ratting You Out
Source: PIG News Wire [11/30/11]
Big Brother isn't the only entity that's spying on you. Malls and shopping areas in J.O.E. have been using it for several years, to snoop on shoppers who are packing a cell phone. How do they manage it, when the cell phone is in your pocket. They use a technological terror called 'FootPath'. What's that? What in deed:
'FootPath works by detecting a frequently changing signal from your mobile phone. This random signal is detected by a number of our units within the premises'
'Our FootPath technology allows us to monitor the path you take as you travel through premises belonging to any of our clients,' says Path Intelligence, the company behind the technology.
The technology is already in use in several 'major' retail chains in the UK - although the company's CEO refused to say which.
'We have been installed in various places since 2008,' CEO Sharon Biggar told MailOnline today.
When entering premises with Footpath technology, the customer receives no warning that their mobile phone signal is being monitored bar a small sign somewhere on the premises.
Crucially, though, they do not receive an option to 'opt-out' of being scanned.
Customers on all networks will be scanned by Footpath, and no current mobile phone has a 'defence' against such scanners. The only way to be safe is simply to switch off.
'FootPath works by detecting a frequently changing signal from your mobile phone,' says the company. 'This random signal is detected by a number of our units within the premises.
'We combine the information detected from the mobile phone signal with a proprietary mathematical algorithm developed by us. This allows us to determine your path through premises equipped with our receiver units.'
'We cannot store individual mobile phone numbers and do not read SMS texts or phone calls,' says Ms Biggar. 'We 'hash' the data immediately so that no computer or person within Path Intelligence ever knows the number.' (Daily Mail)
I know what you're thinking and I have thrilling news. FootPath has crossed the pond and established a foothold in the USA. Now, stores from sea to shining sea can use your cell blight's signals to trace your path through their outpost of capitalism.
In J.O.E., Big Brother Lives Right Next Door
Source: PIG News Wire [11/18/11]
I'd love to tell you that this shocks me, but I can't. Given the increasingly intrusive nature of the Brit Nanny State, it was just a matter of time before Big Brit Brother teamed up with the infamous Brit Busybody. Using 'feel good' terms like 'street champions' and 'community champions', local councils have enlisted thousands of Gladis Kravitz clones to spy on their neighbors, then rat them out to Big Brit Brother (the infamous local councils).
The Daily Mail dished out these fetid facts:
Councils across the country have recruited thousands of 'citizen snoopers' to report 'environmental crime'.
They target dog foulers, litter louts and neighbours who fail to sort their rubbish properly.
The volunteers act as the 'eyes and ears' of their neighbourhoods and are encouraged to take photos of 'environmental crime' and send them in with location details for a rapid response.
They are given hand-held GPS computers for the task or phone cards to cover the cost of using their own devices. Evidence gathered this way is sometimes used in criminal prosecutions.
There are already 9,831 snoopers signed up – a 17 per cent increase on the number two years ago – and a further 1,310 are set to be recruited and trained as part of schemes run by 18 councils.
Volunteers often apply to become 'street champions' through council websites, but many have also been lured by recruitment drives in local newspapers.
There are, believe it or not, a few rational adults living in J.O.E. and they have issues with this Gladis Kravitz crap:
Nick Pickles, director of the civil liberties campaign group Big Brother Watch, said: 'It should be deeply troubling for us all that councils seem not content with their own snooping and are now recruiting members of the public to assist them.
'If a crime is committed, it is the police who should be involved, not local residents given hi-tech gadgets by councils, many of whom rarely pass up an opportunity to invade our privacy or hand out spurious fines. These individuals operate with little or no training, and there is no evidence to suggest it helps combat environmental crime. Councils seem to be unable to tell the difference between asking the public for help and getting the public to do their snooping for them.'
Emma Boon of the TaxPayers' Alliance said: 'Councils shouldn't be asking people to spy on their neighbours…it could breed resentment within communities.'
If you live in J.O.E., you're free to 'love thy neighbor', but you don't dare trust the spying son-of-a-bitch, because he might be a charter member of the Gladis Kravitz contingent.
A WTF Response

After a being raped on two different occasions (February and March 2011), by a hormone gorilla who attended the same high school, a Swedish wenchlet reported the incidents to the high school's principal. Did he move swiftly to deal with the situation? Not exactly.
If the wenchlet expected support from anybody at the high school, she was in for a nasty shock. The principal's reaction, was a stunner.
According to the complaint filed with the Schools Inspectorate, the student was told by the principal:
"You file a police report if you want, although this is not a prioritized case as no serious crime has been committed."
The principal then told the student, who was accompanied by another member of staff at the time:
"Guys do this kind of thing, you have to get used to it." (The Local)
After the girl shared this jaw-dropping dose of Educrat sensitivity with her mom, the principal kicked it up a notch:
According to the report, when the girl's mother called the principal to discuss her comments, the principal told her that her daughter "should concentrate on her studies" and "to stop focusing on these trivialities". (The Local)
From that moment forward, school was hellish for the wenchlet, who insists that teachers and students alike acted like utter and complete assholes:
The girl alleges that from that time until the break for the summer holidays, she was subjected to periodical harassment from fellow students and some individual teachers at the school. (The Local)
Cutting her losses, the wenchlet switched schools.
Parting shot: I have doubts about this one. A principal who dismisses rape with "guys do that sort of thing, you have to get used to it"? Seriously? I'm finding that very hard to believe.

One of the underappreciated banes of 21st century technology is the fact that no matter where you are, some cellidiot is there to record your antics for posterity. An Ottawa (Cana-DUH) bus wrangler found that out the hard way, when a passenger with Asperger's syndrome - one of the traits of Asperger's is "marked verbosity" - wouldn't STFU.
Unable to shrug it off, the driver had a memorable meltdown, all of which a passenger captured with his cell phone's camera. No harm, no foul? Not exactly, because the cellidiot posted the video of the bus driver's meltdown on YouTube.
In the footage, captured on a cellphone by another passenger, the driver (who isn't shown on camera) can allegedly be heard yelling, "If you don't shut your f------face, I'm going to stick my fist in it."
<snip>
The video ends with the driver yelling, "Shut up! Not a f------word, not a sound. When I open that f------door, you get out and you don't say a f------word or I'm gonna f------ kick your f------ass."
The young man bolts for the back door, saying "sorry," as he gets off. (Owen Sound Sun Times)
So far, this is barely PIG-worthy, but that's going to change, when I tell you how the president of Amalgamated Transit Union local 279, Garry Queale responded when asked about the bus driver's memorable meltdown. Unmoved by the 'public outrage' over the driver's meltdown, this union boss had other things on his mind:
"There is a City of Ottawa bylaw that people aren't supposed to take pictures on buses," said Queale, when contacted Sunday.
<snip>
YouTube user DartPak, who uploaded the video Thursday, also described the man as mentally ill, something Queale dismissed.
"Is (the person who was video taping) a licensed physician to know what his state of mental health is?" Queale said, adding that there are two sides to every story and the circumstances leading up to the expletive-filled rant are unknown.
When in doubt 'blame the messenger' is alive and well in this Canadian union local.

Initially, the pirate raid on a ship off the East African coast followed a depressingly familiar script. Six heavily armed Somali pirates had it all going their way, when they boarded a Taiwanese fishing vessel - the Chin Yi Wen.
Greatly outnumbered by the 28 man crew of the Taiwanese ship, the Somali pirates attempted to equalize the unfavorable odds with their firepower. Did it work? Yes...and no.
Yes: initially the pirates gained control of the ship.
No: when they let down their guard, the six pirates were 'attacked and overwhelmed' by the Taiwanese crew.
The write-up in my BBC source material tread very lightly, on the fate of the pirates. After noting that 3 Taiwanese sailors were injured during the counterattack, BBC added this wonderfully vague prose: '...the pirates fell into the sea. Their fate is unknown.'
"FELL" into the sea? Bullshit! It appears that the Taiwanese crew of the ship beat the living shit out of the six pirates, then THREW the bastards into the ocean. I'd say the ship's crew 'resolved' that pesky issue, very nicely.

Maybe it was some unknown effect of 11/11/11. Maybe she had too much morning coffee. Maybe she ingested something much more potent than coffee. Whatever the case, our Aussie heroine was hell on wheels, when she headed out on the highways and by ways in, and near, Burleigh Heads (Australia) around 8 a.m., on that Friday morning.
Determined to make her road warrior antics memorable, she aired out her cans, by driving topless. On the off chance that nobody noticed - or noticed but didn't care about her cans - our road warrior kicked it up several notches by swerving at other cars.
Her antics yielded predictable results:
One of the related accidents is believed to be a three-car collision at Burleigh Heads which happened around 7.55am.
The cars collided at the corner of the Gold Coast Highway and Goodwin Terrace.
One person is believed to have suffered neck injuries and another person was treated for an injured arm.
Both were treated at the scene before being taken to hospital.
About 10 minutes later, it is alleged the wanted woman struck a car at Tweed Street at Burleigh Heads before driving off.
The owner of the struck vehicle escaped injury and told police he would make a formal complaint later today. (GoldCoast.com)
If you're driving in that region of Australia and spot a topless woman in a 1991 Mitsubishi Magna, don't let those naked cans distract you. Get out of her way, because she's hell on wheels.

Israel gave the Iranians something to think about, this week, when they successfully test fired a long range missile. Named the 'Jerico', the missile has ample range to deliver a nuclear warheadto Iran. Nuclear warheads? Yup, the Israelis have plenty of THOSE, too.
Normally, such developments would make a nation rethink its options, but that's not going to happen in Iran. Iran is a 7th century suicide pact which is ready, willing, and eager to self destruct. Unhappily, it seems determined to take, at minimum, the Israelies down with it.
Tolerance Tantrum in France
Source: Fox News [11/02/11]
When it comes to humor, Islamikazes never get the joke. Instead of laughing, the titans of tolerance get boiling - RAMPAGE ALERT - mad, bellowing that directly or indirectly, the humor is 'offensive to Islam'.
This week, the titans of tolerance were thrilled spitless, after a satircal French newspaper - Charlie Hebdo - 'invited' the Mecca Maniac prophet, Muhammad, to serve as the guest editor of an issue which focused its wit on events in North Africa:
The current issue was centered on last week's victory of a once-banned Islamist party in Tunisia's first free elections and last month decision by Libya's new leaders that Sharia, or Islamic legislation, will be the main source of law in post-Qaddafi Libya.
"It was a joke where the topic was to imagine a world where Sharia would be applied," Charb told APTN. "But since everyone tells us not to worry about Libya or Tunisia, we wanted to explain what would be a soft version of Sharia, a Sharia applied in a soft manner."
Leaving nothing to chance, the paper deployed Muhammad on their front page:
The front-page of the weekly, subtitled "Sharia Hebdo," a reference to Islamic law, showed a cartoon-like man with a turban, white robe and beard smiling broadly and saying, in an accompanying bubble, "100 lashes if you don't die laughing." (Fox)
Did the Islamikazes 'die laughing'? Perhaps, but that probably happened, AFTER, the titans of tolerance fire bombed the newspapers headquarters around 1 a.m., on Wednesday morning.
Anyone who thinks Mecca Mania and individual liberty can coexist, peacefully, is tragically, dangerously, deluded. |

Korrecting Halloween In Calgary
Source: PIG News Wire [10/28/11]
The Killjoy in this instance is a Canadian Educrat wench who is principal of Colonel Walker and Ramsay schools. Her name is Michelle Speight and she's a real piece of work. With Halloween looming large, she decreed that the inmates of her cess-schools will not be allowed to wear 'scary', 'violent' or 'blood-drenched Halloween costumes. Banned outfits include, but are not limited to: masks, weapons, and/or violent imagery.
Principal Speight insists that cess-school inmates must wear 'caring and community-friendly' outfits, whatever the hell that means in real life. Inmates will be required to attend 'caring assemblies' in the morning, after which they can wear their caring and community-friendly costumes, the rest of the school day. How Korrect is this Korrectnik bitch? You be the judge:
"You can still be creative, in fact we encourage that, think of all the things you can be in a non-violent way," said Speight. "Ones that exemplify caring for other people and be respectful of other people."
Predictably, some parents had a lot to say about it:
"I don't want to bash the school but I do think it's a little bit silly," said Julie Van Rosendaal, who's six-year-old son attends Ramsay school in Grade 1. "I think everyone's wondering what the parameters of a caring costume are."
"I don't really see, on the whole, the benefit of this," said Mike de Boer, chairman of the parent council at Colonel Walker. "It's just another layer of control and a restriction on what the kids want to be." (CNEWS)
We the PIGs feel compelled to tell this Korrectnik Killjoy where to stick her caring and community-friendly costume crap. Don't make us come over there, shit for brains.
Another Day, More Wadded Islamikaze Knickers
Source: PIG News Wire [10/28/11]
I have good news and bad news. It involves toy guns that were made in China, then were shipped to the funsters in the Middle East. Toy guns? No problem. But, the guns make sounds delight the Chinese a lot more than they please the Islamikazes.
The good news is that the Chinese commie scumbags are developing a properly PIGish sense of humor.
The bad news is that the Middle East dwelling Islamikazes don't get the joke:
An Emirati social expert and activist shopping in a local market stumbled across Chinese-made toy guns that issue sounds mocking Islam and called on authorities to take action against such products.
The discovery came a few days after Saudi authorities said they seized nearly 1,500 Chinese-made toy guns issuing sounds that mock and insult Aisha, the wife of the Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him).
Mariam Al Ahmadi, a well-known social activist in Abu Dhabi, said she found the toy guns at some shops in Bani Yas, just outside Abu Dhabi city.
Quoted by the Dubai-based 'Emarat Al Youm' Arabic language daily, Mariam said she had reported the guns to the police and called for immediate measures."I call upon the police and other competent authorities to investigate how these anti-Islam guns found their way into the UAE market and to take action against all those who had brought them in," she said.
In Saudi Arabia, police said on Sunday they had seized nearly 1,500 Chinese-made toy guns at a local market found to be issuing sounds that abuse Aisha, one of the most venerated women in Islam. Members of the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice, the most influential law enforcement authority in the country, seized the toys during a raid on a shopping centre in the western town of Jeddah.
"The guns were found to be issuing sounds which are considered mocking and offending against the Prophet's wife," newspapers said, quoting Commission spokesman in Jeddah, Turki Al Zahrani.He said sellers of those toys, mostly Asians, apparently do not know they offend Islam as the guns issue sounds in Arabic. (Emirates 24/7)
If you buy this 'the Chinese didn't know the sounds would thrill the snot out of Islamikazes', I have a bridge in San Francisco I'd like to sell you.
Mall Meatheads Roust Dad For Taking His Daughter's Picture
Source: PIG News Wire [10/15/11]
It's the kind of thing a doting dad might do on an outing with his daughter. In this case, dad is 45 year old Chris White and the place where he blundered into this particular circle of hell was the Braehead shopping center near Glasgow (Scotland).
The magic moment happened, while 4 year old Hazel was eating ice cream. Unable to resist, Chris snapped some photos of his baby girl, with his camera phone. No harm, no foul? It would be, in a RATIONAL environment, but that descriptor automatically excludes the asshats employed by the Braehead outpost of capitalism:
[A] security guard allegedly told White that taking photos in the shopping center is "illegal" and that security could confiscate White's camera phone under the Prevention of Terrorism Act.
"I explained I had taken two photos of my daughter eating ice cream and that she was the only person in the photo, so I didn't see any problem," White said.
"I also said that I wasn't that willing to delete the photos and there seemed little point as I had actually uploaded them to Facebook."
Police arrived on the scene shortly afterward.
White says one of the police officers was "quite intimidating," but allowed him to keep his camera phone in exchange for offering his full details, including name, place of birth, age, employment status and address.
"Had I not had my daughter with me, and the fact that we are trying to bring our daughter up to respect and trust police officers, I may have exercised my right not to provide those details," White said. (Fox)
A spokeshole for the shopping center tried to sell the 'no harm, no foul' notion, by lauding the ice cream staff for trying to look out for a young wenchlet. They were also 'alarmed' over non-existent images which Chris, allegedly, snapped of them. They acted in good faith, and so did the security asshat, according to the spokeshole. When 'for the good of our staff and customers, we have a no photography policy' didn't get the job done, the shopping center tried something slightly more rational.
Beating a hasty retreat, the spokeshole subsequently, announced that mall policy will be changed to allow family and friends to take pictures in the shopping center. Just getting started, they tried to avoid a bad publicity train wreck by smoothing things over with Chris White:
"We wish to apologize to Mr. White for the distress we may have caused to him and his family and we will be in direct contact with him to apologize properly."
Nice try, mall wrangler Sparky, but Chris isn't in a forgive and forget frame of mind. When last seen he had set up a Facebook page about the incident and was exhorting people to boycott the Braehead shopping center. The FSOP has your back on this one, Chris.
EU Killjoys Making Childhood Safe & Relentlessly Miserable
Source: PIG News Wire [10/15/11]
I'm differently-thrilled to report that the asshats running the EU, have shattered the existing record for distance in that favorite Elected Tormentor activity, rectal-cranial inversion. That's right, PIGsters, the EU twerps have their heads shoved up their asses to a degree nobody dreamed possible.
Once again, it's all being done, FOR THE CHILDREN. That's their story and they're sticking to it, when defending their newest toy safety directive. It's a mind-blowing pile to turds, and you can quote me.
* Balloon safety: Tykes under age 8 must be supervised when blowing up a balloon. We can't have them swallowing a balloon.
* Party games: Items like whistles and magnetic fishing games are banned, because 'their small parts or chemicals used in making them are decreed to be too risky'. Whistle blowers - the ones that unroll a long colored paper 'tongue' - are banned for tykes under age 14.
* Noise: The newly pooped out twaddle includes restrictions on how much noise toys like rattles and musical instruments can make.
* Stuffed animals: Teddy bears and other cuddly toys for tykes under 3 years must be washable. We can't have a dirty teddy bear spreading disease and infection.
* The new edict is a fun suffocating monstrosity which imposes regulations on everything a 'child' under age 14 might find amusing at playtime. When I say everything, I mean it, because there are even rules covering coloring books.
* Toy manufacturers and toy retailers were hit with this bureaucratic bull crap too. Among other things, they must attach suitably worded warning labels to this DANGEROUS toys.
After that lunacy - I barely scratched the surface - we need a voice of reason. Here you go:
Paul Nuttall, a member of the European Parliament's consumer safety committee, said the "kill joy" world of EU officialdom was being ill-equipped to understand the concept of children having fun. "I would say that this is crackers but I sure children are banned from using them too. EU party poopers should not be telling families how to blow up balloons," said the Ukip MEP.
Truer words, PIGsters. Truer words.
Ruskies, International Scientists Seek Yeti In Siberia
Source: PIG News Wire [10/07/11]
On things that go bump in the night, the Ruskies lead the pack, when it comes to tall, terminally weird, tales. Their latest foray into enduring myths is taking place in the Kemerova region of Siberia. It's the site selected for a confab on the ultra elusive Yeti. Why Kemerova? It's a hotbed of Yeti sightings, which have tripled over the past 20 years.
At the conference, 'scientists' from Russia, the USA, Canada, Sweden, Estonia, Mongolia and China will examine the 'evidence', yammer a while, then go looking for the elusive critter:
A group of scientists from the conference will be sent out to search the region's mountains to examine the evidence and try spot a Yeti.
It will be the first expedition of its kind since 1958, when scientists from the Soviet Academy of Sciences scoured Western Siberia trying to catch a Yeti. (Fox News)
With or without Al Gore's global warming, Siberia isn't anyone's idea of a bundle of laughs. If these Yeti hunters want to get up close and personal with a Sasquatch, the best place to look is Los Angeles, not Kemerova in Siberia. Why Los Angeles? Because that's where Lamar Odom - the only man in human history to marry a Sasquatch - lives. Why do these lab coated hooligans insist on making this stuff unnecessarily complicated.
Gender Redefined
Source: Golden Oinks [10/07/11]
What makes you a man or a woman? According to an Aussie judge, it's not what you think. Nads don't count. Ovaries don't count. Those tattletale XX or XY chromosomes don't count. So what, you ask, does count, when it comes to 'male' or 'female'? Perception.
The court ruled:
"The physical characteristics by which a person is identified as male or female are confined to external physical characteristics that are socially recognizable. Social recognition of a person's gender does not require knowledge of a person's remnant sexual organs."
The ruling arises from an appeal by two transgender people against a decision by Western Australia's Gender Reassignment Board, which refused to issue them certificates of recognition of gender because both retained a female reproductive system.
The pair, who have had their breasts removed and are having testosterone therapy, which renders them infertile, say they are men.
The effect of the judgment is that female-to-male transsexuals do not have to undergo penis construction surgery, which is dangerous and no doubt expensive, given its not performed in Australia, to legally swap genders.
Nor do they have to have their internal female reproductive organs removed for WA to issue them with gender certificates, the West Australian reports. (Global Post)
This ruling is going to make that 'one man and one woman' marriage criteria a no bull crap thrill ride.

Mexico Mulls A Road Test Marriage
Source: PIG News Wire [09/30/11]
After thrilling their right-wing counterparts with gay marriage, the lefties in Mexico City's legislative body decided to kick their antics up a notch with a 'road test version of marriage'. I'm guessing that these Sombrero Stompers don't have the functional equivalent of 'shacking up', so they invented one.
If one, or both, of the marriage minded participants feels queasy about their choice, road test marriage should do the trick. It will allow him, her, himher, or it, to do much more than 'kick the tires'. Road test marriage allows them to go for time-limited test drive:
Left-wing members of the city's assembly - who have already riled conservatives by legalizing gay marriage - proposed a reform to the civil code this week that would allow couples to decide on the length of their commitment, opting out of a lifetime.
The minimum marriage contract would be for two years and could be renewed if the couple stays happy.
The contracts would include provisions on how children and property would be handled if the couple splits.
'The proposal is, when the two-year period is up, if the relationship is not stable or harmonious, the contract simply ends,' said Leonel Luna, the Mexico City assemblyman who co-authored the bill. (Daily Mail)
It's not as demented as it sounds, if you take a couple items into consideration. First and foremost, there's the fact that nearly half of Mexico City marriages end in divorce, usually in the first two years. Second, the rules of engagement for a Mexican divorce make it a prolonged, agonizing process. Given these fun facts, an easily dissolved, time limited marriage is an idea whose time has come. BNC.
An idea whose time has come? You bet, but the usual suspects, south of the border aren't thrilled spitless over road test marriage:
"This reform is absurd. It contradicts the nature of marriage,' said Hugo Valdemar, spokesman for the Mexican archdiocese. It's another one of these electoral theatrics the assembly tends to do that are irresponsible and immoral."
There's just no pleasing some people.
Golden D'Oh Of the Week
Source: PIG News Wire [09/30/11]
In Taiwan, as part of a pre-Halloween promotion, the suits at 7-Eleven deployed a set of products - key chains, magnets, and USB drives which are festooned with a cartoon vampire. In addition to the requisite fangs and suitably Asian features, the vampire has a black square in the middle of its face, right above its mouth. No harm, no foul? You should know better by now.
Products featuring the cartoon figure, which was designed by blogger Mark Lee, are sold in other Taiwanese stores as well, according to 7-Eleven. Lee says that while the figure's appearance was inspired by Hitler, the cartoon was not meant to endorse any of Hitler's views. In addition to depicting the dictator's famous mustache, the caricature also wears a red armband and, in one version, has its arm raised in the fashion of the iconic Nazi salute.
"I had hoped to use it to satirize some bosses," Lee told Agence France-Presse. "In the eyes of disgruntled employees, many bosses are greedy and dictatorial and like vampires trying to suck money from them."
That's right, they gave the vampire a Hitler mustache. Did anyone notice the resemblance? You better believe it and many of them - the Israel Economic and Cultural Office (ISECO) in Taipei is a prime example - were not the least bit amused.
"We were appalled to see the Hitler lookalike image being used, again, as a marketing aid and sold in Taiwan's 7-Eleven stores," ISECO representative Simona Halperin said in a statement Tuesday. "I find it tragic that once again people down the chain of marketing and promotion fail to recognize the meaning of the Dark Age in human history that the Nazi dictator represents." (CNN)
After trying to talk their way out of it - they said the black square was a nose, then a tooth, but nobody bought it - the suits at 7- Eleven stopped selling the Hitler gear.
Parting shot: This isn't the first time Nazi imagery popped up in Taiwan and it probably won't be the last.
Looking For Someone To Blame
Source: PIG News Wire [09/23/11]
On April 6, 2009, a magnitude 5.8 (Richter Scale) earthquake hit Central Italy, killing 309 people in L'Aquila, the epicenter of the quake. Two years later, L'Aquila residents are still looking for someone to blame for the hole left in their lives by the deaths of loved ones and the destruction of their property. Unable to put the screws to Old Ka-Boom, and unwilling to piss off the notoriously temperamental Mother Nature, the local prosecutors looked for easier prey and they found just what they needed.
This week, L'Aquila prosecutors pinned a 'quake death culprit' bull's-eye on six scientists and a bureaucrat, by charging them with manslaughter. Given the impossibility of predicting an earthquake with any meaningful precision, what, exactly, did the L'Aquila folks expect these scapegoats to do?
What can anyone do? In prime earthquake regions - Japan, Mexifornia, etc., the best the scientists can do is analyze the history of a given fault - if it's one of the known ones, and state the facts: it moves every X years and it's late, or still in the inactive window. The only meaningful earthquake countermeasure involves preparation. Are the local building codes capable of withstanding the largest quake a given fault can generate? Are the residents reminded, often, to stock up on emergency food and supplies? Is earthquake safety information readily available? Finally, do the locals know about the active faults in their area? That's it and most of it is up to Elected Tormentors and bureaucrats, not scientists.
As far as I can tell, the individuals on trial, belong to an Italian cabal, Italy's Commission of Grand Risks. Their sin, it seems is not being alarmist enough.
The prosecution team said they never intended to put science on trial, that they know it is not possible to predict an earthquake. What they are questioning is whether the six scientists and the official on trial, who together constitute Italy's Commission of Grand Risks, did their jobs properly.
That is, did they weigh up all the risks, and communicate these clearly to the authorities seeking their advice? The local investigator, Inspector Lorenzo Cavallo, said: "The Commission calmed the local population down following a number of earth tremors. After the quake, we heard people's accounts and they told us they changed their behaviour following the advice of the commission.
"It is our duty to investigate what has been said in each case and pass it on to the legal authority." (BBC)
If Italy's proper authorities didn't adequately prepare L'Aquila's citizens for an earthquake that nobody could stop and no one could predict with any meaningful degree of precision, then FIRE THEM. If scientists weren't alarmist enough to terrify the crap out of the locals, then take them off the taxpayer funded payroll. What you shouldn't do, is put them on trial for manslaughter because an earthquake they couldn't stop, and couldn't predict with any useful precision, snuffed out 309 individuals.
If L'Aquila's zealous prosecutors succeed in convicting these scientists, it will send Italian scientists a very clear message. No matter how sure you are...no matter how iron clad the proof...no matter how great the danger to life and property a looming natural disaster is, KEEP IT TO YOURSELF. Why? Because no matter what happens, if you share your expertise, someone will find a way to pin any disaster-caused deaths on YOU.
L'Aquila seems determined to road test the venerable axiom: when you punish something - science, in this instance - you'll get less of it, thereafter. If you jail a scientist because his best guess didn't get 'er done, you'll never get any scientist's best guess on anything. Good luck with that, self-inflicted wound Sparky.
Hell No, I Won't Go

"Hell no! I won't go"? Translate that into Italian and you know what some long-suffering, Venice-dwelling, parents have been hearing for 21 years, from their 41 year old Basement Bambio. Unlike too many basement boys, this Bambino has a job that pays him handsomely, giving him enough money to pay for his own abode. Instead, he stays home, mooching off mom and dad, while demanding that his clothes get washed and ironed and his meals prepared for him.
Finally, tired of Bambino's stubborn refusal to 'hit the road, Guido', Bambino's parents sought relief via the Italian legal system. They're seeking a court order that will use the long arm of the law to pluck Bambino out of his basement abode and evict his sorry ass from the family home, where he wore out his welcome, decades ago.
The parents have now approached the legal department of a consumer association, ADICO, for help in getting their son to fly the nest.
Lawyers from the company have sent a letter to the son, warning him to vacate the house within six days or face legal action.
An ADICO spokesperson said hundreds of families in Italy faced similar difficulties with getting their adult children to leave home. (Stylist.co.uk)
Will this Bambino strike out in court and finally act like the MAN he's supposed to be? Perhaps, but I doubt that he'll make it easy, because it's SO not his style.

After 10 years on the force, a retired, former RCMP officer, Rob Laird still has his police officer skills, when their needed. He needed them, recently, when he was driving near Okotoks (about 11 miles south of Calgary, in Alberta, Canada). He smelled trouble brewing from the drunk driver who was more than a danger to himself. His erratic driving would get somebody killed, unless someone stopped him:
"In all my years (of policing) I never saw anyone drive like this," said Laird, who was an RCMP officer for 10 years in Okotoks, High River and Calgary.
"Completely over into the left-hand lane forcing vehicles to take the ditch and shoulder, then back again and down into the other ditch where I thought 'he'll end it here and roll it' but this went on for a long ways.
"Finally we pulled up to a traffic light by Okotoks and stopped so I wrote the licence plate down and phoned 911. I told the girl I was going to witness a fatal accident." (CNEWS)
Game, set, match? Not exactly, because the 911 dispatcher seemed more upset about Rob Laird's failure to use a 'hands free' cell phone', while in his car than she was by the dangerously drunk driver who was forcing cars off the road. In fact she ordered him to hang up and stop following the drunk in the SUV. Did he follow orders? Not exactly. He trailed the drunk driver to a home in Black Diamond, where he staggered - falling repeatedly - into the house, thus getting away with it. Maybe the 911 dispatcher will be more interested in this drunk, driver, when he finally succeeds in killing somebody. Maybe, but don't bet on it.
And what, if anything, to the relevant police officials have to say? You're going to be thrilled:
"My understanding of the law is if you are calling about an emergency, you can use your phone." [Rob Laird].
But that's not entirely true, explained RCMP spokesman Tim Taniguchi.
"It basically says the use of a cellular phone or other communication device (is allowed) for contacting an emergency response unit by an individual driving or operation a vehicle," he said.
"What we do is if a person calls from a vehicle using a wireless device, that's a contact, we get sufficient information to effect a police response."
Taniguchi said police got enough information from Laird -- the licence plate, vehicle make and colour -- to begin investigation, which is now ongoing.
"We cannot allow the driver to follow a vehicle while on a phone because that's going against the legislation," he said. (CNET)
Like their dispatcher, the RCMP brass is more interested in the guy using a cell phone to report a dangerous situation, than they are in the dude who is driving so erratically he's going to kill somebody. Is Rob Laird the last rational man in Alberta?
Going Postal In J.O.E.
Source: PIG News Wire [09/16/11]
It happened on the Brit Channel Island of Jersey, when the island's postal workers flatly refused to deliver some CDs which they deemed 'offensive material'. I know what you're thinking but the item in question isn't anything like THAT. It's not a porn flick. It's not even a promotional copy of Kim the Kaboose's highly over-rated sex tape. So what is it? You're going to be thrilled.
Church groups on the island wanted to commemorate the 400th anniversary of - TA DA - the King James Bible. After discussing it, they ponied up enough money to produce 45,000 CDs which contain recordings of St. Mark's Gospel. Why 45,000 copies? That's how many households there are on the Channel Island of Jersey.
Long after they'd paid for the 45,000 CDs, the organizers of this effort got the thrilling news from the postal punks: not 'no', but 'hell no'.
As expected, the people behind the effort are differently-thrilled:
"Initially Jersey Post seemed quite positive about helping us deliver the CDs. But then a couple of weeks ago somebody from their marketing department phoned to say they would be unable to deliver them on the grounds that they could be deemed offensive. They said there were guidelines about mass material that is sent out across the island and that religious recordings could offend people. This is not openly aggressive evangelism it was just a nice idea to give everyone a CD which they can chose to listen to if they wish." ( Rev Liz Hunter of St Helier Methodist Centre, as quoted in the Daily Mail)
For those who care, here's the self-serving drivel spouted by a postal pinhead:
"I understand that one of my colleagues did say the material was offensive. This decision was made on the basis of our terms and conditions which states that we have the right to refuse to distribute something that falls under the category of 'promotional material which could cause offence'. Clearly this was interpreted in the wrong way. I have spoken to the person involved and have written to all of my colleagues asking that they come to me if there is any doubt in their mind in the future." (Jersey Post Chief Executive Kevin Keen, as quoted in the Daily Mail)
The churches sucked it up and enlisted a cadre of volunteers to deliver the CDs.
Parting shot: It's a damn shame that the Channel Island of Jersey can't vote that rancid asshole, Kevin Keen, off their island. Life is so imperfect, that way.
J.O.E.'s Politically Correct Olympics
Source: PIG News Wire [09/16/11]
With all the venues for the 2012 Olympic Games in the final stages of completion, the organizers of the forthcoming London Games are turning their attention to devilish details. If you're a keen observer of J.O.E. (PIGlish for Jolly Old England), you're probably way ahead of me. For the rest of our readers, I'll cut to the chase.
Have the usual Brit suspects pooped out another of their infamous 'guidebooks'? Yup.
Is it overflowing with political correctness? Yup.
Am I going to share some tidbits? You better believe it, Sparky.
In one scenario in the LOCOG guide, volunteers are advised on what to do 'if you meet a man wearing a dress'.
They are told: 'Do not make an assumption about their gender unless directed by their name. (If you are asked, provide instructions to the male/female and accessible toilets).'
When addressing a very young member of the workforce, volunteers are told, 'avoid patronising words', such as 'young man' and 'dear'.
Elsewhere in the same guidebook, under the heading 'look after yourself', workers are told to wear sunglasses when it is bright, to make sure their shoes are comfortable and socks fit, and to get a good night's sleep. (Daily Mail)
As fun as that sounds, it gets better, as shown by the following word games:
Out: Mentally Handicapped
In: Learning Difficulty/Disability
Out: Deaf and Dumb
In: Deaf without Speech or simply Deaf
Out: Wheelchair Bound
In: Wheelchair User
Out: Carer, Helper
In: Personal Assistant, Support Worker
Out: Person/People with Disability
In: Disabled Person/People
Finally, there's my personal favorite:
Out: Able-bodied, Fit
In: Non Disabled Person
How Korrect are the London 2012 Olympics? How Korrect indeed:
The London 2012 mascots Wenlock and Mandeville are gender-neutral characters supposedly so they can act as 'universal symbols of the games'.
In the booklet, Paul Deighton, LOCOG chief executive, writes: 'We are committed to making sure the London 2012 Games are as diverse and inclusive as possible.'
And the guide tells volunteers: 'It is not about being "politically correct", it is about basic courtesy and common sense.'
The voice of reason comes from John Midgley, he's from the Campaign Against Political Correctness, who deemed the LOCOG Guide "drivel". Like John, PIG thinks the LOCOG should dump Korrectness like a bad habit. We agree wholeheartedly, when John says, "...perhaps it is time for a bit of old fashioned common-sense to be injected into the Olympics."

And if they discover their bottles are from the affected batches they must dial an emergency hotline immediately to arrange for them to be collected.
InBev UK, which brews and markets Stella Artois Cidre, said two customers had already been injured by a bottle which had 'burst unexpectedly'.
A spokeswoman said: 'The safety of our consumers is our top priority and that is why InBev UK Ltd is taking the measure of recalling all potentially affected bottles.
'The potentially affected bottles come from three batches. No other Stella Artois products are affected.
'We are working closely with the Food Standards Agency to take all necessary action, and have moved quickly to understand and identify the issue and take action. (Daily Mail)
If these Brit cider wranglers want to deploy a new advertising tag line to rehabilitate this memorable beverage, I have one for them: "Explodes in your mouth, not in your hand".
Bank Heist
Source: PIG News Wire [09/09/11]
This isn't THAT kind of bank heist, so get over it. It is, however, the kind of alleged 'theft' which is inexplicably common in Nigeria.
The fun started, when a Nigerian journalist, Saminu Ibrahim, strolled into the Skye Bank Gusau in Nigeria's Zamfara State and tried to withdraw his August salary. That's when he did his header into the bank's Twilight Zone staff, who accused the journalist of stealing something very precious from a bank employee named Idowu Olatunji.
If you're thinking 'cell phone', wallet, watch or any other possession, you're ice cold. According to the bank staff, the journalist stole Idowu's WANG. Enraged by this dastardly deed, the bank employees were thisclose to lynching the journalist, but that plan was thwarted, when a cop assigned to the bank arrested the journalist and carted him off to the relative safety of the local graybar hotel.
Did everyone laugh it off and test the bank's water supply for mind altering substances? Not exactly:
Against the backdrop of the allegation the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) Zamfara state council, has called on the police in the state to investigate the matter .
The NUJ Chairman in the state, Comrade Mainasara Ruwan Dorawa, appealed for calm to enable the police investigate the matter, recalling that this was the second time a journalist would be accused of manhood theft . He stated that the first allegation after investigation turned out not to be true.
He said "Recently another journalist representing Kano-based Triumph newspaper had a similar false accusation of snatching manhood". (Daily Champion)
As expected, I have a few questions:
* How did the other bank staffers know Idowu's wang was MIA?
* Is this he first time Idowu misplaced his wang, or does he lose track of it at least once a day?
* Idowu, dude, when was the last time you saw your wang?
* Is everyone in Nigeria INSANE?
I don't know about you, but I think we know who to blame? This is OBVIOUSLY the work of Chaz Bono who is in the market for a wang, to complete her transformation. Where, exactly, was Chaz, when Idowu's wang turned up missing? It's Enquiring minds time, in the PIG bunker.
Humor Challenged In J.O.E.
Source: PIG News Wire [09/09/11]
A Brit capitalist, Peter Tooley, decided to have some fun at the expense of Libya's former fearless leader, Colonel Gaddafi, so he deployed a mock Gaddafi outside his Party Time shop in Sheffield. His mock Gaddafi is dressed in pink tights, a white moo-moo, plus he's holding a sign that reads "you ain't seen me, right". Okay, it's not a side-splitter, but it's not a groaner, either.
As harmless as this attempted 'joke' is, it proved too much for those roving Brit Killjoys, Sheffield's PCSOs. And what, you ask, is a PCSO. It's a Police Community Support Officer, which is a professional busybody who serves as an auxiliary adjunct to the REAL cops:
Police Community Support Officers are members of support staff employed, directed and managed by their Police Force. They will work to complement and support regular police officers, providing a visible and accessible uniformed presence to improve the quality of life in the community and offer greater public reassurance.
PCSOs are not replacement police officers but are there to address some of the tasks that do not require the experience or powers held by police officers, which often take officers away from more appropriate duties.
Just as PCSOs are not the same as police officers, they are not the same as special constables, traffic wardens or local authority wardens. They are a unique role designed purely to tackle local anti-social behaviour and issues affecting the quality of life. (PoliceCommunitySupportOfficer.com)
Two of these roving busybodies with delusions of grandeur took a look at Peter Tooley's Gaddafi mannequin and didn't find it the least bit amusing. Deeming it "offensive" the full of themselves and IT PCSOs ordered Party Time minions to take it down.
Mrs Cath Jewitt, who has worked at the store for the last nine years, said: 'The police came to the counter and said they had reservations about displaying the mannequin and advised us to take it down. We did remove it straight away.
'It's about having a joke - maybe there's someone who didn't have a sense of humour. It was in the shop doorway with glasses on and wasn't offensive.
'For St Patrick's Day we put outrageous costumes outside and the same for St Andrew's Day. We had a man dressed in a tartan with frilly knickers on underneath and no one complained.
'It's all a joke really - if we make people laugh they come into the shop so we're trying to be fun.'
Peter Tooley, who runs Party Time in Eccleshall Road, Sheffield, added: 'I think it's very funny, I can't imagine why anyone would complain about it.' (Daily Mail)
South Yorkshire Police circled the wagons around their humor-challenged PCSOs, insisting that they made the correct call. The same badge-packing spokeshole admitted that nobody had complained about the Gaddafi 'joke'. BUT, somebody might and that's more than enough to justify ordering its removal. 'Somebody might'? Seriously? Is that what passes for critical thinking for the South Yorkshire Police?
Taxi Driver From Hell...
Source: PIG News Wire [09/09/11]
For a 32 year old German woman, the taxi which was supposed to take her to her home in Hamburg (Germany, DUH), made a 5 hour pit stop in hell, along the way. If you think Big Apple cabbies corned the market on abusive antics, prepare to be thrilled.
The detour to hell began, when our heroine chided the 57 year old driver for taking a 'scenic' route, to unnecessarily increase the fare. Did the driver shrug off this criticism? Not exactly. Attacking the woman, he punched her in the face, then stuffed her into the trunk of his cab.
Determined to teach her a lesson, the cabbie parked his ride outside his home and left the woman trapped in the trunk. She stayed there for five hours, until somebody responded to her cries for help and liberated her.
The driver did his best to elude capture, but a police manhunt tracked him down. While he got bagged, tagged and dragged to a German Graybar Hotel, our heroine was recovering in a local hospital where she is being treated for shock, plus severe bruising on her arms and legs.
Too Sexy For Miss Italy?
Source: PIG News Wire [09/06/11]
For a variety of reasons, I have a soft spot for Italy and Italians. It's a Hambo thing, so get over it. It's due to that soft story that his particular story is so painful for me.
I thought I was hallucinating, when I read the Daily Mail headline about three Miss Italy contestants who were - I am not making this up - evicted from the contest for being TOO SEXY. That's right, they were too hot to handle, so the Miss Italy meatheads evicted them.
Alice Bellotto sexy sin involves posing for pictures which show her looking stunningly seductive in a pink nightgown. Other 'sinful' images showed her striking a provocative pose in denim hot pants and high heels.
Raffaella Modugno's accomplishments include winning the title 'Miss Curvy Italy'. She showcased her winning curves in images which showed her reclining on a leather sofa in her silk underwear. Another image showed her reclining with her winning curves wrapped in lacy black corset top.
Last, but far from least, we have Tiziana Pergianni whose unpardonable sin involves pictures and videos in which Tiziana is airing out her sweater puppies.
And what, you ask, is the purpose of a beauty pageant, if it banishes contestants who are too sexy? I haven't got a clue. I do have these choice words from the Miss Italy meatheads:
A spokesman for Miss Italy said:''Regulation number eight clearly states that any contestant who has posed or is seen in a nude or provocative pose is excluded.'
A backstage source added: 'We get this every now and then but never three in one contest - I think it may be a record.
'The organisers like to keep Miss Italy squeaky clean so anything slightly naughty is stamped on quick.'' (Daily Mail)
Blah, blah, blah. If you want the smoking 'this is how far the Miss Italy meathead have their heads shoved up their assess' gun, this fatty fact should get 'er done:
This year's contest features 60 women and has also been opened up to women who are a curvy size 14 in an attempt to show that not all women need to be stick thin size zero models to be attractive.
Korrectness is running rampant at the Miss Italy pageant.
Irony On Steroids

The school routine hit a speed bump, for one group of young scholars, when they arrived at Csiky Gergely high school (Arad, Romania) to take a test. The classroom was infested with critters, who decided to use it as a rest stop. Not breaking news? You're right, but there's more to this story.
Would it change your mind, if I told you that the invaders - some were flying around inside the classroom, while others slept on the floor - were bats? Still not sold on 'PIG-worthy'? You're a hard sell, but I'm up to the challenge.

More Islamikaze Fun

It's called a "faith-rescue unit" and it's the brainchild of a religious councillor in Selangor (a Malaysian state), Datuk Hasan Ali. Who, you ask, is in need of a supernaturalism rescue unit? According to Hasan, those pesky Malaysian Cross Cultists are handing out more than certain essential aid, when needy Mecca Maniacs come looking for assistance. Paranoid to a fault, Hasan fears that Mecca Maniacs will be lured to the dark side, as a - GASP - Christian.
If you read between the lines, the truth emerges. Unable to get aid from their fellow Islamikazes, differently-prosperous Mecca Maniacs move on down the road to the charitable Cross Cultists. Mecca Maniacs like Hasan, ignored the requests for help from their fellow Islamists, until this 'the Christians are stealing our true believers' paranoia reared its head.
Now, Hasan is playing catch-up, by forming Islamikaze aid organizations to give his Mecca Maniac home boys a safe, approved, place to go for help. Will it work? The jury is still out.
Parting shot: Hasan is worried about Islamikazes converting to Cross Cultism? Why? I thought 'they' had that covered with their 'if you turn your back on Allah, we'll murder you' rules of engagement.
Tea Company Has Its Own 'New Coke' Brainfart
Source: PIG News Wire [09/02/11]
For more than 300 years, Twinings has been selling tea to thirsty Brits. Started by Thomas Twining in 1706, it grew from its humble beginnings as a tea room on the Strand in London, into a major player in the Brit tea marketplace.
In 1831, Twinings launched a new blend, which infused black tea with the oil of the bergamot orange from South-east Asia. Suitably patriotic, Twinings named it after the Prime Minister, Charles Grey. It didn't take long for the new tea, 'Earl Grey' to become J.O.E.'s favorite tea.
For reasons nobody understands, Twinings decided to tamper with 'perfection', and changed the winning formula, the Spring. The NEW Earl Grey from Twinings is, many tea afficionados insist, vile. Some describe it as 'dishwater' served in a cup, while others insist that it tastes like a 'lemon cleaning product'. The only thing the outraged Earl Grey purists are NOT willing to call the new blend is 'drinkable'.
Dozens of angry tea drinkers have posted complaints about the new flavour on the company's website since the new brand was launched in April.
One wrote: 'I cannot describe how awful this new tea tastes. The old award-winning tea was in a completely different league to this foul-tasting dishwater.'
Others have simply described the new product as 'horrid', 'vile' and 'an affront to tea'.
One wrote: 'I agree with the other posts here that the new Earl Grey is an awful disappointment!
'Bring back the old recipe that was refreshing and flavoursome.'
'I cannot describe how awful this new tea tastes. The old award-winning tea was in a completely different league to this foul-tasting dishwater.' (Daily Mail)
So far, the tea wranglers at Twininigs are hanging tough, insisting that the poor bastards who taste tested this swill were thrilled spitless with the dishwater masquerading as tea.
Will Twinings have a 'New Coke' class epiphany? Perhaps, but it's going to take a while to get there.

Payback's A Bitch

Undoubtedly feeling invulnerable, the Taliban asshats showed up in a village in southern Afghanistan to spread their special brand of joy, by murdering a 60-year-old man whom they accused of aiding the government. Game, set, match? Not exactly.
Whipping them selves up into a 'let's go get 'em' rage, the villagers singled out the local Taliban commander and his bodyguard, for very special attention. How special? VERY, because they stoned the two Jihadikazes to death.
Is this a sign that our troops and their allies are making some progress on the hearts and minds front? Perhaps, but it's much more likely that the villagers had reached that 'enough of this bullshit' point and simply snapped. Either way, the results - dead Taliban - are awesome.
Birds of a Feather

Hugo "Skipper" Chavez's circle of friends includes a who's who of the world's tyrannical assholes. Birds of a feather stick together? You better believe it, Tyrant for Life, Sparky.
This week, Skipper is reaching out to lend moral support to another of his little Middle Eastern buddies. Which little Middle Eastern buddy? It's Libya's elusive tyrant, the man whose name has more spelling permutations than the 57 states The One thinks he visited, Moamer Kadhfi (AFP's spelling choice). Hugo unleashed these pleasantries about the Libyan Moonbat:
In Libya, Chavez said, there is "only one government, the one led by Moamer Kadhafi," the Venezuelan leader said, restating earlier criticism of the NATO bombardment that contributed to the collapse of the Libyan strongman's regime.
"We affirm our solidarity with the attacked and bombarded Libyan people," he said, in a statement made during a cabinet meeting broadcast by television and radio.
The remarks echoed a statement by Chavez Monday, when he slammed the West's military action against Kadhafi as "a massacre."
Chavez has accused the western powers of being motivated by "cynicism" and greed to seize the oil reserves of the north African country, a fellow member of the 12-member Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries.
"It's an excuse to invade and take over a country and its riches." (AFP)
Will Hugo roll out a red carpet for the Libyan Moonbat, if he shows up on his doorstep? Perhaps, but Hugo seems to enjoy talking the talk a lot more than he likes to walk the walk.

As inspired, inspirational, ideas go, this one is a pleasure to behold. The prime movers are J.O.E.'s top ranked beach volleyball babes, Zara Dampney and Shauna Mullin. When they cut a sponsorship deal with a bookmaker named Betfair, the suits at Betfair only had one requirement: "There is huge interest in beach volleyball and we want to ensure that our advertising campaign is seen and remembered by as many sports fans as possible."
Zara and Shauna got 'er done, in grand style, by affixing some barcodes on the backs of their bikini bottoms. Why barcodes? Why indeed: When the matrix barcodes are photographed with a smartphone, the user is taken to the company's website. (BBC)
No harm, no foul? It is to a rational adult. 'Rational adult' excludes the NO NADs at the Bristol Feminist Network who have their knickers in a knot over it:
"I think what is really shows is that there's still a lack of seriousness taken when it comes to women's sports. There's the assumption that men are the spectators rather than women for a start. But also do we want these women to be seen as athletes or are they walking advertising billboards? These are big, big questions." (NO NAD whiner, Sian Norris as quoted by BBC)

Multi-tasking Motorist Gets Black Flagged
Source: PIG News Wire [08/19/11]
Boldly taking multi-tasking where it doesn't belong, a Brit cell idiot, David Secker, proved, conclusively, that he's a two-fisted moron, while driving on a Brit highway in eastern England. When the proper authorities spotted Davie boy, he was holding a cell blight in each hand. Bold new concept.
In his right hand, he held a cell phone to his right ear. In his left hand, he held another cell phone, while he texted a message. Although he later denied it, he was attempting - failing miserably - to steer with his knee. Luckily, for other motorists on the same highway, Davie boy's antics did not go unnoticed:
An officer said that once he had stopped the jobless driver, he was kept waiting while the suspect finished his conversation before he would talk to the police patrol, The (London) Times reported.
Denis King, for the prosecution, told Norwich Magistrates' Court, "He was seen holding a mobile phone to his right ear and as he moved closer the officer saw he was holding another phone in his other hand as though he was texting."
Secker denied that he had been steering his Vauxhall Tigra with his knees, causing it to swerve across the road. In mitigation, Simon Nicholls said his client had been reading a phone number from one phone to an acquaintance with whom he was speaking on the other device, holding the first handset and the top of the steering wheel with one hand. (News.com.au)
In addition to his multi-tasking, Davie boy was also driving without insurance, a fun fact which didn't elude the relevant Brit black robe.
He received eight penalty points for driving without insurance, three points for not being in proper control and a further three points for mobile phone use. In addition to a year's ban, he was fined £150 ($245). Magistrates said they would have fined him £500 but reduced the fine after learning that he was on benefits.
Did the punishment fit the infraction? Some Brit road safety groups are far from impressed, calling it a 'wrist-slap'. Personally, I think this begs for my lovely bride's all-purpose solution: just shoot the bastard.
Killjoys Spoil Water Fight

In a rational world, a water fight perpetrated by a group of teenagers at a seaside park is no harm, no foul. It's the kind of Summer fun teenagers enjoy, even teenagers who live in Iran. Unhappily, the proper authorities in this 7th century blight have a pathological aversion to fun in any of its diverse forms.
AFP served up these killjoy particulars:
"Seventeen young boys and girls who were squirting water at each other were arrested on Friday in one of the beach parks" in the city of Bandar Abbas, Homozgan province's justice chief Ali Alia said, quoted by ISNA news agency.
"Five were immediately let go," he said, adding the rest were released on bail on Sunday but could face sentences for publicly committing an "act forbidden" (haram) by Islam as well as "insulting police officers".
Water fights in Mahmoud al-Gilligan's outpost of insanity? It's 'go figure' time in the PIGdom.
Brit Officials Go Gutless & Girlie
Source: PIG News Wire [08/05/11]
So far, the Islamikazes' bloodless, uncontested, conquest of J.O.E. (Jolly Old England) is going swimmingly. The latest Islamikaze power grab involves an 'in your face' campaign to declare certain Islamikaze infested regions of J.O.E. Sharia-controlled zones where Islamic rules are 'enforced'. And what, you ask, is J.O.E. doing about it? Nothing.
There was, I admit, a tepid effort by the Ministry of Justice to investigate this Sharia-controlled zone phenomenon, where 'secretive Sharia councils' replace whatever liberty remains in J.O.E. with 7th century rules of engagement. In a rational world, the Brit government would make sure that the Sharia courts and its antics don't violate Brit law. In practice, the Ministry of Justice lacked the nads to press the issue.
Instead of DEMANDING, that the Sharia councils cooperate, or else, Brit officials, groveled, and pleaded for 'cooperation', but their pleas fell on deaf 'bite me, infidel scum' ears:
The Ministry of Justice said: 'The report was essentially an exploratory study which identified a number of challenges to undertaking more robust research.
'The challenges to undertaking more robust research were that the councils are generally run on a volunteer basis, were short staffed and very busy, so there were practical difficulties in speaking with respondents.
'There was also reluctance to discuss the private work of the councils and respondents were wary of the stereotypical ways in which their organisations were represented in the media.' (Daily Mail)
J.O.E.'s free ranging rational adults are understandably worried about the Sharia controlled zones, doubly so, since, so far, the government isn't doing a damn thing to put a stop to this blatant seizure of entire regions of the country.
Parting shot: What's the point of having coercive Nanny State power, if you're unwilling to use it when some 7th century asshats seize parts of your country, then refuse to cooperate?
Sand Box Supernaturalism

First, we'll set the scene. You're on a vacation with 7 of your chums, when you decide to explore a certain valley which has a sinister reputation. After you enter the valley, you start feeling puny: your color changes, your balance goes to crap, you get uncharacteristically aggressive and combative; your unfocused stare scares the crap out of your chums.. Something is obviously wrong, so your friends subdue you and carry you to a nearby town.
If the town is populated by rational adults, they'll summon a medical professional to examine you. Since this is the Sand Box (Saudi Arabia), rational adults are in short supply - most of them being either in jail or dead. Instead of a medical malady, the locals spout demented drivel about the valley that our hero explored being haunted by jinn (ghosts).
Instead of a doctor, our hero was packed off to those Sand Box funsters - the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice - where he was treated by Exorcists whose cure included lots of burning incense plus Koran recitation.
Despite these irrational antics, the stricken man recovered. Happily ever after? Sorry, that's probably anti-Islamic, thus not one of the options in the Sand Box.

After spreading its special brand of joy, by giving aid and comfort to assorted Islamikaze-infested nations - they call it 'investing', no doubt - the Chinese probably believed they were exempted from 'enemy of Islam' status. They know better now, after some indigenous Islamikazes - Xinjiang's Islamikaze Uighur minority - did what comes much to naturally, for adherents of the egregiously misnamed 'religion of peace'.
A deadly weekend attack in China's restive Xinjiang region was masterminded by "terrorists" trained in Pakistan, the local government said Monday.
Fourteen people were killed in two attacks at the weekend in the ancient Silk Road city of Kashgar, and five alleged attackers were in turn shot dead by police in the wave of violence.
The Kashgar authorities said in a statement on their website that initial investigations found that the perpetrators of one attack learned explosive-making skills in terrorist-run camps in Pakistan.
"The heads of the group had learned skills of making explosives and firearms in overseas camps of the terrorist group East Turkistan Islamic Movement in Pakistan before entering Xinjiang," the online statement said.
Remote Xinjiang has seen several outbreaks of ethnic violence in recent years as the mainly Muslim Uighur minority bridles under what it sees as government oppression and the unwanted immigration of ethnic Han Chinese. (AFP)
PIG News is thrilled to welcome the Chinese commies to the wonderful world of 'peaceful' Islamikaze coexistence.
Neighbor From Hell

For the residents of a Melbourne (Australia) suburb - Residents of Frogmore Cres, Park Orchards - their quiet neighborhood became another circle of Hell, when HE moved in, 18 months ago. Since that magic moment, he has gone out of his way to spread his special brand of joy.
His opening move involved cutting down the trees on his property, an action that didn't thrill his neighbors spitless.
When his neighbors bitching got on his last raw nerve, he sent them a pointed message, by sculpting 4 feet tall a one-finger salute out of wood. When he finished it, he put it on his front yard, where they couldn't miss it.
Eventually, this pissing contest landed in an Aussie courtroom:
At Ringwood Magistrates' Court, last week, the court heard a neighbour, John Washbourne, was assaulted after he asked the man to turn off a leaf blower that was sending dust and debris into the caravan Mr Washbourne was cleaning.
The court was told the man headbutted Mr Washbourne, shoulder-barged Mr Washbourne's wife, Judy Lewis, and put the leaf blower in their faces.
After being visited by police following the assault, the man ignored an order to turn down his music.
At the hearing, Mister Congeniality owned up to his asshattery:
The offender pleaded guilty to charges relating to the assault, sculpture and failure to turn off his stereo and was convicted and fined $700.
In a separate hearing, he was fined $10,000 by Manningham Council after pleading guilty to removing vegetation and doing earthworks without a permit. (Herald Sun)
Happily ever after? I doubt it, but if it amuses you to think that, knock yourself out.
Parting shot: I have no doubt that this clown is the neighbor from hell. Despite that, I'll give this Devil his due and state, for the record, that his finger sculpture is very PIG-worthy.

When that murdering bastard started his shooting rampage on Norway's Utoya island, two women - Hege Dalen and Toril Hansen - were in the right place, at the right time, with the right stuff. Thanks to their heroism, 40 teenagers were plucked from the island and taken to safety.
The two women were enjoying a meal, when they heard gunfire and screaming on Utoya island. From their vantage point they saw the terror induced panic on the island which made the teenagers seek safety in the waters of Lake Tyrifijoren.
Jumping into a boat, the two women headed for the island. It was the first of four such trips in the small craft. When they finished 40 teenagers, many in shock, and some with gunshot wounds, were out of harm's way on the mainland. After the women finished their heroics, they noticed the bullet holes in the right side of the boat.
Courage under fire? You better believe it, Sparky. The Free State of PIG salutes Hege and Toril for going in harm's way, to rescue 40 strangers from a cold blooded killer.
Parting shot: For some damn reason, Gawker scribblers found the utterly irrelevant fact that the two women are lesbians to be stop the presses stuff. Their sexuality played no role whatsoever in their heroism.

It was a wedding like any other, except for one devilish detail. When it came to certain non-negotiable essentials, the groom, Rio, was not the man he should have been. For the family of the bride, Rio's dirty little secret started to unravel during the Islamic ceremony in western Java (Indonesia).
Sign 1: The groom didn't bring any relatives to the ceremony.
Sign 2: The groom didn't bring the relevant documentation.
Sign 3: During the festivities, the groom's distinctively male voice switched gears and became a unmistakably female voice.
When you follow the breadcrumbs you discover that the bride's suitor of 7 months was, despite a masculine physique, a woman. If you think that derailed the festivities you're right, up to a point. Rio was evicted, but there was still a wedding. Instead of marrying Rio, the bride salvaged her honor - and probably saved herself from an honor killing - when her ex-boyfriend was dusted off and brought in as a last minute substitution. Happily ever after? I'd like to think so, but that's not one of the options for an Islamikaze bride.

Our title character is an Aussie peace puke named Bryan Law. He blundered into the PIG spotlight, while he was spreading his special brand of peace puke joy with other members of a group named Peace Convergence.
The element of objective reality that wadded this peace puke's panties was a joint Aussie-American military exercise named Talisman Sabre. Focusing his hissy fit on a military helicopter parked at an airport in Rockhampton (central Queensland), Bryan started pummeling the chopper with an axe. What an axe-hole!

Kiwi Name Games
Source: PIG News Wire [07/23/11]
When it comes to pinning weird names on their offspring, Tinsel Town breeders are the first ones who come to mind. I get that, but I'm here to tell you that New Zealand breeders are giving celebrity parents a run for their money, in the naming game.
In fact, Kiwi breeders are so relentlessly fun, the country's Elected Tormentors pooped out a law to impose some sanity when it comes to baby names:
The Births, Deaths, Marriages, and Relationships Registration Act says names can be declined for causing offence, being over-long or "without adequate justification" resembling an official title or rank. (Stuff.co)
Names rejected for giving supernaturalists a boo-boo, include: Lucifer (3 different tykes) and Messiah.
Names rejected for resembling titles include: Baron, Bishop, Duke, General, Judge, Justice, King, Knight, and (not a joke) Mr.
Names rejected for not being a word include: '89', '*', '.' (full stop), '/', 'C', 'D', 'I', 'T'. Ironically 'j', and 'q' passed muster.
These names were also rejected: Fanny, Jnr, Shady, and Nevaeh (heaven spelled backwards). Fun fact: in 2007, Nevaeh was number 31 in girls name popularity in the good old USA.
Are these Kiwi parents several lug nuts short of a proper tire attachment? You bet, but I still don't think a parent should need the Nanny State's permission, when it comes to giving their newborn tyke a name.
"Courageous Constraint"
Source: Steaming Load [07/23/11]
If you want to know why we're losing the war in Afghanistan, I can explain it in two words: "courageous constraint". What is that? It's a rule of engagement that is getting brave men and women in uniform killed, in Afghanistan. That last contention isn't Hambo hyperbole, because 'courageous constraint' played a critical role in the death of a Brit warrior, Sergeant Peter Rayner, whose life was cut short by one of the Taliban's roadside bombs.
Among other things, "courageous constraint" tells our troops in Afghanistan that they can be charged with MURDER if they shoot any Taliban, without permission from higher up the military chain of command. Courageous constraint also forces troops to sit and watch while the Taliban plant roadside bombs, because - I am NOT making this up - stopping them 'might wake up and upset the locals'. For similar reasons, troops were ordered not to use their mortars for illumination, when they encountered 'positively identified Taliban twerps.
For a firsthand report, I defer to a former Royal Marine, Craig Smith, who made this entry in his personal journal, during his six-month tour of duty in Afghanistan:
'After a few days it becomes apparent that when we positively identify people we cannot open fire!'
Branding the policy 'an absolute outrage' he added: 'This course of action will end up with one of us being a casualty - and I will lay the blame with command.'
He told the newspaper: 'In Kajaki I saw Taliban digging in IEDs and was denied the chance to do anything about it for fear of upsetting the locals. Permission to open fire was denied as it would alarm the population.'
(Daily Mail)
And what, you ask, does the military brass have to say for itself? The Daily Mail shared these noxious news nuggets:
A Ministry of Defence spokesman said: 'The whole point of a counter insurgency operation is to protect the civilian population.'
He said soldiers had to go through a series of stages before opening fire and were sometimes asked to exercise 'courageous restraint' even when shots had been fired. 'It is all about winning hearts and minds and using the least force possible,' the spokesman said. (Daily Mail)
If anyone should be charged with murder it's the titanic turd who is getting brave men and women killed, with a steaming pile of crap called "courageous constraint".

For a Ruskie desperado, Viktor Jasinski, the hair salon in Meshchovsk, Russia, looked like easy pickings. He knows better, now, after his caper took an unlikely turn.
Viktor's ill-fated caper hit its first speed bump, when he accosted the shop owner, 28-year-old Olga Zajac. Unimpressed by Viktor or his desperado posturing, Olga used her black belt karate expertise to knock the 32 year old robber on his ass. Bagged, tagged, and dragged? Eventually, but not quite yet.
Instead of summoning the cops, Olga stripped Viktor, hogtied him with hair dryer cable, then went to work on him. Keeping him at 'attention' with a steady diet of Viagra, Olga used Viktor as her sex slave, for the next 3 days.
Eventually, Olga decided that her captive had learned his lesson, she turned him loose. Case closed? Hardly. An egregiously unappreciative Viktor ran to the cops to complain about his captivity. When they dropped in to chat with Olga, she was far from amused with Viktor's attitude:
"What a bastard. Yes, we had sex a couple of times. But I bought him new jeans, gave him food and even gave him 1,000 roubles when he left." (Daily Mail)
I'm pleased to report that the proper authorities bagged, tagged, and dragged Viktor to a graybar hotel for his attempted robbery. I'm far from pleased to report that our heroine, Olga, has also been bagged, tagged, and dragged.
Whining For Dollars

Based on a news item from the Globe and Mail, I know several things about Michel Thibodeau. He's Canadian. He's FRENCH Canadian. He's a lawsuit bonkers asshole. How do I know he's lawsuit bonkers asshole? How indeed.
Starting in Spring of 2009, Dickhead, and his wife Lynda, took two trips on Air Canada. During at least one of those flights, Dickhead tried to order a 7-Up in FRENCH. It was one of a dozen - yes they kept track - incidents where they were unable to get the desired service, when they spoke French.
Armed with the desired result, Dickhead ran caterwauling to the Canadian court system. Once there, Dickhead hit Air Canada with a lawsuit claiming to be deeply wounded by Air Canada's deficiency in French, not to mention the air carrier's 'arrogant' minions.
Full of himself and it, Dickhead demanded $25,000 for himself, plus an additional $25,000 for his wife. He also demanded $500,000 in punitive damages. This week, a black robe with her head up her butt, Justice Marie-Josée Bédard, ruled in Dickhead's favor, agreeing with his demand that he be served in French.
'[A Federal Court judge gave] the couple $12,000 in compensation for four occasions when Air Canada failed to serve them in French. The judge also ordered the airline to apologize to the couple and introduce a system to track potential violations of its language duties.
"Awarding damages in this case will serve the purpose of emphasizing the importance of the rights at issue, and will have a deterrent effect," Justice Marie-Josée Bédard wrote.
Was Dickhead pleased with the result? Hardly. He's pissing and moaning, in FRENCH of course, about the chump change the judge gave him. Like I said, he's and asshole.
Parting shot: Why, you ask, am I so down on this piece of shit? The main reason I despise this son-of-a-bitch is this: his insistence on FRENCH is a PREFERENCE, not a necessity, because he's fluent in English. That's right, he got on the plane, looking for an excuse to sue. Somebody needs to pick up a copy of the Oxford English Dictionary in each hand, then box Dickhead's ear's with them. I'm just sayin'.

What one cyberspace wit deemed "the running of the idiots" (the view from the bovine's perspective) is still administering reality checks to the relentlessly stupid. Once again, when adventure seeking thrill seekers played chicken with half a ton of cranky bovine, it produced PIG-pleasingly predictable results.
Revellers packed overhanging balconies as the beasts bolted 846.6 metres from a holding pen to the city's bull-fighting ring in a very quick two minutes 29 seconds.
One runner wearing traditional white, with red handkerchief, sprinted ahead of a pack of three bulls but could not outrun them.
Knocked over, trapped between two of the beasts, and then kicked by other passing bulls, he was dragged about the length of four bulls and left sprawling in the street.
A middle-aged man could be seen cowering on the pavement and squeezed against a wall to avoid the tips of a passing bull's horns. Another fell before the pack and curled up to shield himself from the hooves.
In all, the Red Cross reported at least 10 injuries including bruises, dislocated joints and head injuries but no gorings in the fourth of eight bull runs that mark this alcohol-fuelled festival that runs to July 14. (AFP)
When you play chicken with a big, pissed off, bovine, you're likely to be punctured by the business end of a horn, to which I say "bully for the bovines".

If Allstate Insurance wants a poster wench for its 'good hands' advertising scheme, they need to track down a 31-year-old Chinese woman named Wu Juping. Why? She made one of the great catches of all time, this week.
The drama unfolded after a grandmother left her 2-year-old granddaughter alone in the family's 10th story apartment. Drawn to an open window, the wenchlet, Niu Niu, was hanging on to the window ledge when our heroine spotted her.
Blessed by perfect timing, Wu Juping raced over, arriving just in time to catch the little girl when she fell. The impact of the tyke must have been significant, because it broke Wu's arm and inflicted injuries (internal bleeding, among other things) on Niu Niu, who is lucky to be alive.

Bagged in Mexico

It started, after our heroine paid a conjugal visit to her common-law hubby, Juan Ramirez Tijerina, at thet Chetumal (Mexico) Graybar Hotel. When 19 year old Maria del Mar Arjona exited the prison, she had something near and dear to her heart in her black, wheeled, suitcase.
Alerted by Maria's nervous demeanor, prison guards noted how bulky the suitcase looked. Something wasn't right, they concluded, prompting them to open the bag and check its contents. I don't know what they expected to find in Maria's bag, but I doubt that they anticipated their discovery: Maria's man, Juan Ramirez Tijerina, who was curled up in the fetal position, inside the bag.
'Bagged' works overtime in this story, since it denotes Juan's hiding place, plus the fate which befell Juan and Maria who were perpetrating a very daring escape plan.

When it comes to 'conflict resolution, a 61-year-old Brit, Andrew Castle, is in a class by himself. He demonstrated that fun fact, after his wife, Margaret, asked for a divorce. Obviously, they had a serious conflict which needed to be resolved. What to do?
After giving the matter some thought, Andrew invited Margaret to sit down and talk it over. No harm, no foul? You can make that call after you get the rest of the story:
Investigators said Castle wired the chair in the garage of the couple's bungalow in Poulton-le-Fylde on the Lancashire coast. He then brought his wife to the garage and asked her to sit down while they talked about the divorce.
When Margaret Castle got up, he hit her, but she escaped, running into the street screaming. Police found her husband with slashed wrists. (Daily Mail)
I know what you're thinking and I wondered the same thing. Was Andrew's chair lethal enough to render his wife room temperature? The Daily Mail shared this professional assessment:
A source close to the investigation described the chair to the Daily Mirror: "It was not a sophisticated contraption, but it could have been very effective."
Crude but effective? Yup. It sounds like Margaret Castle caught a lucky break.
Dutch Officials Dump Multiculturalism
Source: PIG News Wire [07/02/11]
Billed, quite rightly, as one of the most socially libertard enclaves on Earth, Holland is reaping what it sowed, and they're not the least bit amused by it. Multiculturalism, a cornerstone of political correctness, has worn out its welcome, prompting the Dutch to drop it like a bad habit:
A new integration bill (covering letter and 15-page action plan), which Dutch Interior Minister Piet Hein Donner presented to parliament on June 16, reads: "The government shares the social dissatisfaction over the multicultural society model and plans to shift priority to the values of the Dutch people. In the new integration system, the values of the Dutch society play a central role. With this change, the government steps away from the model of a multicultural society."
The letter continues: "A more obligatory integration is justified because the government also demands that from its own citizens. It is necessary because otherwise the society gradually grows apart and eventually no one feels at home anymore in the Netherlands. The integration will not be tailored to different groups."
The new integration policy will place more demands on immigrants. For example, immigrants will be required to learn the Dutch language, and the government will take a tougher approach to immigrants to ignore Dutch values or disobey Dutch law.
The government will also stop offering special subsidies for Muslim immigrants because, according to Donner, "it is not the government's job to integrate immigrants." The government will introduce new legislation that outlaws forced marriages and will also impose tougher measures against Muslim immigrants who lower their chances of employment by the way they dress. More specifically, the government will impose a ban on face-covering Islamic burqas as of January 1, 2013. (American Thinker)

Hugo's Adventure With Socialized Medicine

The fun started when Hugo 'Skipper' Chavez needed medical attention for the inexplicable swelling of his pelvis. Unlike the inhabitants of his socialist Eden, Hugo knew how totally f**ked up Venezuela's medical system became, after he nationalized it. As a result of Hugo's handiwork, there aren't any highly skilled doctors left in Venezuela, forcing Hugo to look elsewhere for help with what turned out to be cancer.
On June 10th, Hugo got his operation, in Cuba, where the medical system is marginally less f**ked up than in Venezuela. Will Hugo live to oppress his people for years to come? Probably. Unless somebody shoots him, bin Laden style, he'll probably be oppressing his people for DECADES.
How ironic is it, when the man who destroyed his nation's medical system need the kind of medical expertise that he banished from Venezuela? It's VERY ironic, and you can quote me.

George Ramplin is a Brit postman who got fired after 22 years on the job. His postal career was derailed, in the busy period prior to last Christmas, when he got caught 'hoarding packages containing DVDs and CDs'. Will he be getting his mail delivered to a Brit graybar hotel suite? Nope.
Unambiguously guilty, George needed a spiffy excuse to keep his package hoarding butt out of the slammer. Did he have one handy? You bet, and it's a thriller:
[George] avoided prison after telling the court of the 'trauma' he suffered after riding the Big Thunder Mountain attraction at Disneyland, Paris.
Ramplin's barrister Katrina Jamieson claimed the rollercoaster brought back memories of a tragic accident he was involved in as a child.
Seven children and a teacher died in a minibus crash in Harwich, Essex, in 1978, which Ramplin survived despite suffering head injuries.
Ms Jamieson told Chelmsford Crown Court: 'Thunder Mountain is a very fast, frightening rollercoaster ride.'
She explained that the ride had caused flashbacks which had taken away Ramplin's confidence and caused him to lose two-and-a-half stone.
A sucker for sob stories, the Brit black robe, Judge Laura Harris, went for the excuse, hook, line, and sinker. Pinning a 'post traumatic stress' label on George's malfunction, she gave George a wrist slap: 'a six-month community order with a six-month curfew between 7pm and 7am and ordered Ramplin to pay £350 costs.'

I'm delighted to spread the good news from Amsterdam, where a Dutch district court acquitted PIG hero Geert Wilders of the trumped up 'defaming Islam' charge, that has dogged Geert for 3 years. The presiding judge ruled in Geert's favor, but, as you'll soon see, he didn't like it:
Wilders, 47, was charged with inciting hatred and discrimination and insulting Muslims for calling the Koran "fascist" and comparing it to Adolf Hitler's book "Mein Kampf" in a 2007 Dutch newspaper editorial. A year later, he released his movie "Fitna," in which he urged Muslims to rip out "hate-preaching" verses from the book.
"You have spoken in a hurtful and also shocking way," Presiding Judge Marcel van Oosten said in the Amsterdam district court today. Even so, "the court finds, in the broadest context, that you have to be able to propagate the message of such a film." (Bloomberg)
Geert nailed it, with this posting on his website:
"Today is a victory for freedom of speech. The Dutch are still allowed to speak critically about Islam, and resistance against Islamization is not a crime."
I hope this ends the matter, but knowing how badly they want to nail Geert, I won't be shocked if a higher court trumps up some new charges and starts this bullshit all over again.
When 'D'Oh' Isn't Enough

In February, our hero - a Brit Einstein named Stephen Kirkbride - decided that he needed a spiffier jacket. He found what he wanted - a Craghopper waterproof coat - at a Sports Direct store in Kendal (J.O.E.), but it didn't come cheap: $200 (125 Brit Pounds). Undeterred by the price, Steve tried it on for size, found it suitable, then walked out of the store with it. That's right, Steve stole the jacket. Game, set, match? Nope.
Armed with the store's CCTV footage of Steve stealing the jacket, the Brit cops paid a visit to Steve's abode. They didn't find Steve, but they did find the liner to the stolen jacket. Eventually, he was bagged, tagged, and dragged, into a courtroom to answer the charges. That's when this shoplifting tale strayed into the Twilight Zone.
When Steve showed up in court he was - I am NOT making this up - wearing the stolen jacket. If he thought nobody would notice, he was delusional. A Sports Direct minion, who was in court to testify, recognized the coat and told court officials. The coat was seized as evidence, putting Steve on the losing end of a guilty verdict.
Unhappily, J.O.E. (Jolly Old England) refuses to make stupidity on this jaw-dropping level a death penalty offense, so Steve will probably escape summary execution and do some time in a Brit graybar hotel. Life is so damn sucky, that way.

From our 'go figure' news desk, I bring you an interesting tidbit, about that plane crash in Northern Russia, on Monday, which crash landed, caught fire, and killed 44 of the passengers. Among the known victims on the ill-fated Tupolev 134 were 5 Ruskie nuclear experts. So what?
Aside from being Ruskie and working in the same occupation, the five nuclear experts have one other thing in common: they all played an essential role in designing Mahmoud al-Gilliagan's Iranian nuke facility:
The experts - who included lead designers Sergei Rizhov, Gennadi Benyok, Nicolai Tronov and Russia's top nuclear technological experts, Andrei Tropinov - worked at Bushehr after the contract for the plant's construction passed from the German Siemens company to Russian hands.
The five were employed at the Hydropress factory, a member of Russia's state nuclear corporation, and one of the main companies to contract for the Bushehr construction. (Haaretz)
Although foul play is not suspected, in this case, it does seem 'curious' that so many key players in Iran's headlong dash to nuke Israel until it glows have met an untimely (accidental) end.
Are nuke experts dropping like flies after assisting with Iranian nukes? Yup.
It's just a coincidence? Uh, okay, if you insist.

The critical elements in this story are: an Aussie school, the trees marking the school's outer boundary, and some local fauna that worries about recent changes to its habitat. Confused, don't worry about it. We'll get there, together.
The school is an outpost of Aussie Educrap named Manly Vale Public School, which stirred up some local fauna whose habitat borders on the school grounds, when it started cutting down the trees on lining its boundary. Outraged by the disruption to her habitat, Anya Petrovic (AKA fauna) whose property abuts the school's, gave the relevant individuals an earful - and an eyeful - when she passed out some pamphlets.
When I say 'pamphlets', I mean fliers which include a image of Anya - a nudist - in the buff. She used them to 'show', whomever, what the school's inmates - some as young as five - would see, if the aforementioned trees are removed:
Manly Vale Public School parents were shocked when Ms Petrovic - whose property borders the school - recently turned up and started handing out the pamphlets.
The full-frontal nudity flyer, which had a small black square covering her lower private parts, was also left on the windscreens of cars parked in the area.
One parent who received the flyer told The Sunday Telegraph it was bizarre.
"It's just ridiculous and outrageous to be handing that out," the mother said. "There was a little blacked-out section on the lower part but everything up top was visible. (Sunday Telegraph)
Did Anya get her point across? You bet. Does she have a valid beef? More or less, for all the good it did her. After her revealing protest, Anya has given school officials the info they need to anticipate an inevitable 'we can see that woman's naughty bits' furor. If they cut down the trees, anyway, the forthcoming parental outrage is on their heads.

CAIR doesn't have a monopoly on 'some are more equal than others'. We know this because, this week, Iran's Moonbat Menace, Mahmoud al-Gilligan, tried his hand at 'some are more equal than others', by declaring war on FIFA (the international body which presides over soccer).
What's his damage? Mahmoud isn't thrilled spitless over FIFA's prevailing dress code. FIFA rules authorize uniforms which violate Mahmoud's insane notions of proper female attire:
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has vowed to "seriously confront" world soccer body FIFA's to ban the Islamic republic's women's soccer team from wearing religious garb during professional matches.
Mr. Ahmadinejad told a Tehran news conference that he had instructed vice president and sports czar Ali Saeidlu to head Iran's effort to overturn FIFA's decision.
"I ordered to follow up the issue and we will seriously confront the decision by dictators who just wear the gown of democracy. Despite what happened, I am proud of our girls," Mr. Ahmadinejad said.
Iran's Football Federation (FFI) chief Afi Kafashian appealed to FIFA president Sepp Blatter to reverse a decision and allow for a 2012 Olympics qualifying match that was cancelled by a Bahrain FIFA referee because of the Iranian team's dress. (Al Arabiya)
It would be endlessly amusing to watch a team of Islamikaze women try to play soccer while wearing one of those back baggies. Yes, I know that's probably NOT what Mahmoud al-Gilligan has in mind, but it's my idea of big time fun.

The magic moment transpired, when Roseanne used her lighter and BOOM!
BOOM? You bet, honey I blew up the new car, Sparky. The ensuing explosion, and its fireball, blasted Roseanne out of her car and hurled her across the parking lot. The blast was so powerful that it blew out the doors and windows of the Tesco outlet and deposited chunks of the Fiat on the store's roof.
Roseanne survived the blast, but she's far from unscathed with first degree burns over 17% of her body. Her car didn't fare so well, and what's left of it is on the way to a police lab for analysis.

Last year (late August, to early September), a Libyan student - Almahde Ahmad Atagore - went on a 4-day rapist bastard rampage. By the time the proper authorities bagged, this piece of Islamikaze shit, he'd raped 7 women and girls, including a 13-year-old wenchlet.
Fast forward to the present and this Islamikaze rapist bastard finally had his day in court. As expected, he tried to excuse his behavior by playing the Islamikaze card:
Almahde Ahmad Atagore, 28, had been in Australia only a month and was having trouble adapting to the Australian culture when he committed the attacks, a court heard.
Atagore, who is a Muslim, was upset and sexually aroused at the way women in Australia dressed and behaved, the Victorian County Court heard today. (Herald Sun)

Proving that it's possible to teach an old, 7th century, dog some new tricks, the al-Qaeda asshats on the Arabian Peninsula deployed a high tech recruiting tool in cyberspace. They got 'er done, by publishing an English-language magazine. If all went according to plan, it would provide incentive, along with 'how to' info, for aspiring "lone wolf" Jihadikazes. Game, set, match? Not exactly.
Two cabals in J.O.E. - MI6 and GCHQ - enlightened the al-Qaeda asshats about the terrors of technology, by waging cyber-warfare on al-Qaeda's internet magazine. That brings us to an unlikely stunt called, 'Operation Cupcake':
When followers tried to download the 67-page colour magazine, instead of instructions about how to "Make a bomb in the Kitchen of your Mom" by "The AQ Chef" they were greeted with garbled computer code.
The code, which had been inserted into the original magazine by the British intelligence hackers, was actually a web page of recipes for "The Best Cupcakes in America" published by the Ellen DeGeneres chat show.
Written by Dulcy Israel and produced by Main Street Cupcakes in Hudson, Ohio, it said "the little cupcake is big again" adding: "Self-contained and satisfying, it summons memories of childhood even as it's updated for today's sweet-toothed hipsters."
It included a recipe for the Mojito Cupcake – "made of white rum cake and draped in vanilla buttercream"- and the Rocky Road Cupcake – "warning: sugar rush ahead!"
By contrast, the original magazine featured a recipe showing how to make a lethal pipe bomb using sugar, match heads and a miniature lightbulb, attached to a timer.
The cyber attack also removed articles by Osama bin Laden, his deputy Ayman al-Zawahiri and a piece called "What to expect in Jihad."
British and US intelligence planned separate attacks after learning that the magazine was about to be issued in June last year. (London Telegraph)

If you couldn't pick a country named Tajikistan out of a lineup, don't feel like the Lone Ranger. All 'we' need to know is that it's one of the pissant countries which were spawned during the breakup of the old Soviet Union.
The bad news is that this nation of seven million is one of the poorest in ex-Soviet Central Asia.
The good news is that, Tajikistan's president, Emomali Rahmon, does his best to distract his nation's inhabitants from their poverty with outbursts about things like the proper names for children. For example, he's horrified by 'scary' names whose origin involves wolves, or war.
President Emomali Rahmon urged parents to read through the traditional Persian epic Shahnameh (The Book of Kings) by Ferdowsi written a millennium ago to pick names for their children.
"Parents, leaf through historical works like Shahnameh or works by Tajik classics where you will find many adequate, good, beautiful names," he said. "I pay close attention to surnames and names when I appoint anyone to a leading post in the government," Rahmon told a group of children in speech televised Thursday on the national TV. "Sometimes, reading surnames can make one shudder," he said. "For example, Gurgakov comes from the word 'wolf'. Janjoliyev derives from the word 'conflict'," said Rahmon, the father of seven daughters and two sons.
Names must be beautiful because they play an important role in determining a person's destiny from birth, he said.
"How can you name a person after a wolf?" asked Rahmon, who himself had changed his surname from Rahmonov as the ex-Soviet Tajikistan has been tries to distance itself from Moscow. (AFP)

Unfriendly Neighbors 'Steal' Mahmoud's Thunder
I think it's time to increase the voltage on Mahmoud's shock treatments. Why? The pressure from Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is getting to Hugo "Skipper" Chavez's little buddy. Mahmoud proved that, to my satisfaction, when he traveled to the city of Arak in Markazi province to inaugurate a new dam.
I suspect that Mahmoud chooses to ignore the wishful thinking involved in building a dam after Iran has endured several droughts in recent years. Painfully aware of the prevailing weather pattern, Mahmoud used his speech to finger the dastardly Infidel devils who stole Iran's thunder (and the rain which usually accompanies it).
"Western countries have designed plans to cause drought in certain areas of the world, including Iran," Mr Ahmadinejad said in the city of Arak in Markazi province.
"According to reports on climate, whose accuracy has been verified, European countries are using special equipment to force clouds to dump" their water on their continent, he said.
By doing so, "they prevent rain clouds from reaching regional countries, including Iran," Mr Ahmadinejad charged. (London Telegraph)
Proving that Mother Nature has a twisted sense of humor, she made a fool out of Mahmoud, by making it rain, moments after he spewed his paranoid drivel. File this one under 'Mahmoud is all wet' in your PIG News archives.
What Are The Odds?
It's been a banner week for Mahmoud al-Gilligan. He began the week complaining about stolen rain. He ended it defending himself against accusations from the top of the Iranian food chain - Ayatollah Ali Khamenei - that he's a fan of THEM.

According to religious scholar Mahmoud Nubian, Ahmadinejad's top adviser Esfandiar Rahim Mashaei stated three years ago that Iran should have "friendly ties" with the Jewish State, but Ahmadinejad has refrained from reiterating this position in public because of supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's fierce objection.
Nubian further claimed that the Iranian president personally told him that he supported Mashaei's statement, but couldn't say anything out of respect to the leader. (YNET)
Mahmoud wants "friendly ties" with Israel? Seriously? Is that before, or after, he nukes the beanies off the JOOOOS who live there?
You're Not In The Sandbox Darlin'
Source: PIG News Wire [05/21/11]
I don't know what they're teaching this Saudi bitch - Nuha Mohammed Al-Doaifi - at Florida Institute of Technology, but I can tell you what she needs to learn: GOOD MANNERS. Why? Like too f**king many Mecca Maniacs, Sand Slut has a Dome of the Rock size chip on her shoulder when it comes to "white people".
Sand Slut made herself memorable during a shopping trip to Walmart with her 15-month old son. It started, when a customer informed Sand Slut that she was trying to enter through the wrong door. Was Sand Slut suitably thankful for this friendly reminder? Not exactly. Sand Slut spat in the customer's face. CHARMING...
Later, during the same Walmart shopping adventure, Sand Slut loaded up and let fly with another spit-o-gram, when a male customer 'got too close to her'. This time, her target eluded her spit-o-gram. If you're thinking spitting is Sand Slut's default response, give yourself a cookie. A couple weeks ago, Sand Slut spit at one of her Ivory Tower's professors. Like I said CHARMING...
Unlike the Ivory Tower incident, which earned her a lecture from the Sandbox embassy, this incident did not qualify for 'forgive and forget'. First, the Palm Bay police charged Sand Slut with 'battery', which is small potatoes, but the proper authorities weren't done. They kicked it into the big time, by adding a 'hate crime' charge, elevating the small potatoes battery charge to a felony.
Parting shot: Since Sand Slut can't/won't act civilized, she should be thrown onto a plane for a one-way trip back to the Sandbox.
Explosive Agriculture

With watermelon prices on the rise, many Chinese farmers decided to join that lucrative marketplace niche, but, the volatile nature of the market made them eager to speed things up. No harm, no foul? We'll see.
Unfortunately, Mother Nature got cranky and hit the eager watermelon farmers with a bout of very wet weather. That worried the farmers, who decided to 'speed things up' with a generous dose of a growth accelerator named forchlorfenuron. The fun hit critical mass, after many of the first time users of the growth accelerator used too much of it, setting the stage for an unintended consequence: exploding watermelons.
Watermelons have been bursting by the score in eastern China after farmers gave them overdoses of growth chemicals during wet weather, creating what state media called fields of "land mines."
About 20 farmers around Danyang city in Jiangsu province were affected, losing up to 115 acres (45 hectares) of melon, China Central Television said in an investigative report. (AP)
Unintentionally, the Chinese farmers took the 'easy opening package' concept to the limit, and beyond, with self-opening watermelons. Nice idea, no cigar. I guess it's back to the drawing board on this one.
An Amazing Kiwi Adventure
Source: Golden Oinks [05/21/11]
It started on a rainy Friday night, when a bovine strayed onto the dark New Zealand roadway. That commonplace, farm country, event set the stage for our award winning chain reaction.
Link 1: A motorist traveling down the road didn't see the bovine - a black friesian - until it was too late, so he slammed into the bovine, which was tossed over the top of the car, peeling back the hood and shattering the windshield.
Link 2: The car careened off the road and hit a power pole.
Link 3: The collision with the power pole sent an electrical surge through the wire, which cooked a meter board in a cowshed, setting it ablaze.
Link 4: The heat from the fire melted a water line directly above the blaze, unleashing a gush of water that doused the cow shed blaze.
Hidden from the road by a hedge, the cowshed would have burned a long time, before anyone noticed, so that melted water pipe saved the day.
Assessing the damage, we have: 1 dead bovine, a car in need of serious repair, a power pole that will probably need to be replaced, and a cowshed that escaped destruction due to our award winning sequence of events.
Moral: Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.
J.O.E. Cuts Off Some U.N. Cabals, Puts Others On Notice
Source: PIG News Wire [05/14/11]
Prime Minister David Cameron did what any rational adult would do, when he reviewed J.O.E.'s $10.6 billion foreign aid budget. Putting the various items under a microscope, he paid particular attention to the money earmarked for the Black Helicopter Club. When P.M. Cameron finished the process, he cut off spending on four U.N. cabals which he gave failing grades, and put several others on notice to shape up, or suffer the same fate.
The following cabals fell under the Brit budget axe:
UNIDO (U.N. Industrial Development Organization) - uses its $517.8 million annual budge to 'promote industrial development in poor countries.
UN-HABITAT, uses its annual $396 million budge "to promote socially and environmentally sustainable towns and cities with the goal of providing adequate shelter for all."
ILO (International Labor Organization) - uses its annual $1.1 billion budget to 'oversee international labor standards'.
UNISDR (U.N. International Strategy for Disaster Reduction) - uses its annual $28 million dollar budget to 'coordinate disaster prevention efforts' and "build resilient nations and communities as an essential condition for sustainable development."
Here's a sample of the tough love dispensed by P.M. Cameron:
In all four cases, the British verdict was harsh. Of UNIDO, the government said, a review, "could not find any evidence of UNIDO having a significant impact on global poverty." Likewise, the review "did not find evidence that UN-HABITAT is leading the United Nations system to work more coherently to tackle urban challenges faced in developing countries." The U.N.'s disaster reduction system "has not performed its international co-ordination role well."
In the case of the ILO, the British government conceded that the organization "has a strong role to play in setting labor standards," but "does not have a significant impact" on global poverty reduction goals. So partial funding in the future would be funneled through a different British ministry. (Fox News)
The following agencies were told to shape up or we'll dump you:
UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization): UNESCO has two years to put an end to its "long-lasting historic underperformance".
IOM (International Organization of Migration): IOM egregiously misspends its $1 billion annual budget when it sets up refugee camps, etc. They have two years to do more than "fill a marginal gap in the international humanitarian structure", or the Brits will stop funding it..
The Food and Agriculture Organization: costing $2.2 billion annually, it's an epic fail when it comes to playing a key role in dealing with world food scarcity. It, too, is operating under a 2 year 'shape up, or ship out' funding deadline.
Admittedly, the Brits are merely nibbling around the edges of the Black Helicopter behemoth, but their spending cuts are still eliciting a chorus of whining from the One World Government bureaucrats and assorted other freeloaders.
Spanish Court Gets It Right

PIGish kudos are bestowed on the Spanish black robes which just banged the gavel down on a pair of Somali pirates - Cabdiweli Cabdullahi and Raageggesey Hassan Aji. How did they piss off Spain? They were involved in a 2009 hijacking of a Spanish fishing boat in the Indian Ocean.
The bad news - then - involved a 47 day captivity for the 36 crew members of the tuna boat. The episode ended when the relevant deep pockets shelled out $3.3 million.
The good news - then - involved the capture of the two pirates by Spanish commandos, when the pair got separated from the rest of their pirate gang.
The Kudos-winning news came this week, when each of these Somali scumbags were sentenced to 439 YEARS in a Spanish graybar hotel.
German Judge Says Nein To Freedom Of Speech
Source: Der Spiegel [05/06/11]
The essential elements in this liberty-nuking saga, are German Chancellor Angel Merkel, Hamburg Judge Heinz Uthmann, a Kraut Law which forbids "rewarding and approving" of crimes, plus a room temperature terrorist name Osama bin Laden. Confused? No sweat, I'll bring you up to speed.
The fun started, on the Monday after U.S. Navy Seals put bin Laden out of our misery. That's when Chancellor Merkel state that she was "glad" our Navy Seals had killed bin Laden. Here in the USA, such a comment would be well received, by a critical mass of Americans. In the Fatherland, however, Angel Merkel's 'good riddance' response elicited a tidal wave of blowback from a wide spectrum of Germans, including members of her own center-right political coalition.
The public and political response, as memorable as it might be, is nothing, compared to the Moonbattery of Hamburg Judge Heinz Uthmann, who filed a criminal complaint against Chancellor Merkel, accusing her of violating section140 of the German Criminal Code which paints a judicial system bull's-eye on "rewarding and approving" of crimes. Crime? To this Kraut black robe, putting a couple well-aimed bullets in bin Laden is "homicide", a crime which Merkel is accused of 'approving'. Blah, blah, blah.
Judge Uthmann needs to get his head of our his ass. Gunning down bin Laden isn't a crime, it's a public service which makes the world a better, safer, place.
Danish High Court Bangs The Gavel Down Against Freedom of Speech
Source: Spectator [05/04/11]
Lars Hedegaard, President of the Danish Free Press Society and the International Free Press Society found out, the hard way, that liberty is - at best - on life support in his native land. His header into Islamikaze-inspired tyranny was not spawned by something he printed/published. His troubles stem from something he said during an interview.
During his interview, Lars painted a rhetorical bull's-eye on that bastion of many Islamikaze 'cultures', the honor killing. Apparently, in Denmark, a rational adult isn't allowed to get real about the murder of Islamikaze females - adults and children alike - who, some damn how, tarnish the family name. Lars got that thrilling news, this week, when a Danish court, overturned a lower court acquittal and nailed Lars for - TA DA - racism. That's right, PIGsters, in Denmark, it's racist to point out what a vile, loathsome, and no bullshit EVIL thing it is when Mecca Maniac alleged 'men' kill women in the name of the family honor.
This just in! The Islamikaze conquest of Denmark is thisclose to being a fait accompli. How do they say 'Mission Accomplished' in Islamikaze?
Family Feud On Steroids
Source: Guardian [05/05/11]
Based on recent events in Iran, PIG News suspects that Hugo 'Skipper' Chavez might need to start looking for a new 'little buddy'. Why? Mahmoud al-Gilligan (Mahmoud Ahmadinejad) has big trouble on the home front, with Iran's Moonbat Mullah in chief, 'supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
For instance, this week, Moonbat Mullah Khamenei hacked away at Mahmoud al-Gilligan's support base, by accusing some of al-Gilligan's home boys of using 'supernatural powers:
Several people said to be close to the president and his chief of staff, Esfandiar Rahim Mashaei, have been arrested in recent days and charged with being "magicians" and invoking djinns (spirits).
Ayandeh, an Iranian news website, described one of the arrested men, Abbas Ghaffari, as "a man with special skills in metaphysics and connections with the unknown worlds". The arrests come amid a growing rift between Ahmadinejad and Khamenei which has prompted several MPs to call for the president to be impeached.
On Sunday, Ahmadinejad returned to his office after an 11-day walkout in an apparent protest over Khamenei's reinstatement of the intelligence minister, who the president had initially asked to resign. Ahmadinejad's unprecedented disobedience prompted harsh criticism from conservatives who warned that he might face the fate of Abdulhassan Banisadr, Iran's first post-revolution president who was impeached and exiled for allegedly attempting to undermine clerical power.
Mahmoud's chief of staff, Esfandiar Rahim Mashaei, seems to be the real pain in the Moonbat Mullah's ass. Why? Groomed to be al-Gilligan's successor, Mashaei, is a dude who thinks Mullahs should mind their own business and keep out of politics. You don't need quatrain from Nostradamus to predict how much that tidbit thrilled the Moonbat Mullah.
Is this the end for Hugo's Little Buddy? It's too soon to tell, but his chances don't look good.
Parting shot: If Mahmoud al-Gilligan is what passes for a 'rational adult' in Iran, I don't even want to think about the kind of insane bastard the Moonbat Mullah has in mind as a replacement.

Because they can, Barcelona's (Spain, DUH) Elected Tormentors are painting a bull's-eye on the tourists who visit the city. How? They just perpetrated a law that takes certain fashion options off the table. What fashion options? What indeed.
The city hall voted on Friday to ban "nudity or virtual nudity in public places" and limit swimming costumes to swimming pools, beaches, adjacent roads and beach walks.
Nudists who stray off their designated areas of the beach will be subject to fines of 300 to 500 euros ($450 to 750).
Those who wander into the streets in bikinis, swimming trunks or swimsuits face fines of 120 to 300 euros.
Authorities in the city, where the port and the beach areas are adjacent to the historic old town, earlier this year put up posters discouraging such behaviour. (AFP)
Eager to be all things to all people, the city's Elected Tormentors sell the new dress code to the locals as a way to ensure coexistence between locals and tourists in public areas. At the same time, the same Elected Tormentors assure tourists that they're not "telling people how they should dress". Doublespeak is alive and well in Barcelona.
Begging For It

An Aussie hormone gorilla did a painful header into an 'it seemed like a good idea' at the time brainfart and, hopefully, took the lessons learned to heart. FYI: the key elements in this tiny tale are: a dead fish, a live fish, an utter and complete moron.
While lurking on an Aussie beach around 9pm - okay, lurking is a cheap shot, since he was night fishing, presumably - our hero acquired a dead fish. 'Acquired'? You bet, because my source is lean on details, and all I know for certain is that he came into possession of the dead fish, after which he cleaned it.
The good news - greeniacs will be thrilled - is that our young hero decided to recycle the carcass of the fish he just cleaned. How? That brings us to the bad news. He decided to recycle it, by feeding it to a one meter long (3.28 feet) reef shark.
The whole 'feed it to the shark' idea wasn't a fatally flawed idea, in theory. In practice, it all went to crap, after a wave knocked down our young hero. That's when the reef shark decided that he lad's foot looked much more appetizing than a dead fish. When the shark finished chomping, our hero's heel was "savaged", a condition that will require the medical expertise of a staff specialist at QEII Medical Centre in Perth (Australia). Smooth moves, Ace.
Health & Safety Moonbattery

They're a venerable mainstay at county fairs from sea to shining sea, and, since 1923, they've been a popular attraction at fairground and holiday camps in J.O.E. Made in the USA, Dodgem Cars - also known as bumper cars - are a source of harmless bump and run fun for 'children of all ages'.
Let me rephrase that last remark, because there's been an insane development in J.O.E., where Health and Safety asshats have spread their special brand of joy. At 3 Butlin resorts - plus assorted other bumper car operations around J.O.E. - the rules of bumper car engagement strictly forbid - TA DA - bumping into other cars.
That's right, those turtle paced 'cars' with the oversized bumpers are no longer allowed to bump, because - somehow - somebody might get hurt and go shyster hunting.
The London Telegraph highlights the sheer lunacy of this no bumping crap with this prose:
Anecdotal evidence suggest people have tried to get compensation for whiplash or other injuries sustained on the Dodgems, but there has not been a single successful case.
In fact, more than one firm of solicitors uses the level of impact one would receive from a dodgem crash as an example of where a neck injury compensation claim would not succeed. It would also be difficult to prove some fault on the part of another dodgem driver. (Telegraph)
Despite the fact that they're made for bumping, bumper cars in J.O.E. are banned from bumping? Seriously? That's rectal-cranial inversion at an unprecedented level.
Another Sand Box Panty-Wading Epic

The fun fact about supernaturalism is this: if you believe in one form - Mecca Mania - you're predisposed to believe in other forms - witchcraft, in this instance. That pagan scribbler assertion is the force which is driving this fun filled yarn from the Sand Box.
This week, the relentless funsters who call themselves the 'Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice' paid an unannounced visit to a village in the Sand Box's southern province Asir. Why? They were alarmed by the antics of a 50-year-old Saudi woman who is a - GASP - sorceress by profession. Sorcery? Yup, and the religious police are deadly serious about it.
After bagging, tagging, and dragging the woman to a Sand Box graybar hotel, the religious police Moonbats searched the home. In addition to the usual tools of the sorcery trade - talismans, etc. - the religious police found the names of 98 families who had dealings with the sorceress. I would call them 'clients', but these Sand Box Moonbats insist on affixing a 'victim' label on them.
The smoking gun - when it comes to the religious police and their belief in witchcraft - is what they did next. They called in their own team of 'experts' to 'neutralize the effects and spells of her talismans and other tools'. Do the religious police believe in witchcraft? You better believe it, Sparky.

When you fly Hong Kong Airlines, you get a lot more than a 'lift' from point 'A' to point 'B'. Recently - as often as 3 times a week - the 'in flight' entertainment included an unruly, drunk as a skunk, passenger who must be subdued by the cabin crew. It's heavy lifting, since, in many instances, the unruly asshat is a wide load.
Unwilling to tolerate this on-going threat to flight safety, the suits at Hong Kong Airlines are taking steps to give their cabin crew personnel a fighting chance, when faced with a drunk, combative passenger. How? They're training them in a form of kung-fu which is used in 'close-range' throw downs.
Now that we know what they're doing, that brings us to the key question: does it work?
Two weeks ago a crew member had to put her martial arts training into practice on a flight from Beijing to Hong Kong.
"One of the passengers was sick but he was probably drunk and felt unwell. The crew member attended to him and she realised her fitness was helping her, especially because the guy was quite heavy," Chan told the newspaper.
"Normally, a female cabin crew can't handle a fat guy, especially if he's drunk, but because of the training, she can handle it quite easily." (AFP)
If you're flying Hong Kong Airlines, try to keep your hormones, and everything else, under control. That air hostess cutie is a martial arts mama, so don't throw your moves on that airline hostess hottie, because, she's got the right, martial arts, stuff to kick your ass.
Fifteen Years & Counting

If the Black Helicopter Club (United Nations) isn't the icon for diplomatic dithering, it should be. Take, for example, the on-going word-wrangling over a first draft for a comprehensive convention on international terrorism. Those discussions are 15 years old and still snagged on square one - devising a definition of 'terrorism'. Islamikaze countries - for obvious reasons - want to carve out an exception for 'resistance' against foreign occupation, a loophole that applies - in their minds - to Israel and Kasmir.
The Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC), which was established in 1969 with "liberating" Jerusalem as its primary focus, is unwilling to give ground on the issue as many of its governments believe that doing so would be tantamount to betraying the Palestinian cause.
The "occupation" exemption is usually cited in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, but it would also provide cover for the anti-Indian jihad in Kashmir, a Muslim-majority territory divided between India and Pakistan and claimed by both.
India has been a major target of terrorism, both in what some Islamic states call "Indian-occupied Kashmir" and elsewhere. Not coincidentally, New Delhi has spearheaded the push for a international terrorism convention since 1996.
A U.N. General Assembly resolution passed that year established an "Ad-Hoc Committee" to elaborate on the draft convention proposed by India. It has met every year since then, for a one- or two-week period usually in the spring, but consensus on a terrorism definition remain elusive. (CNS News)
After 15 years, they still can't define terrorism? I guess you can't rush these things, especially when the Islamikazes insist on exempting their home boys - all of whom are allegedly oppressed by 'foreign occupation, colonial, or alien domination'. File this one under 'when the truth hurts dither', in your FSOP archives.
Koran Torched In J.O.E.

To put this fiery fun in its proper focus, I need to bring you up to speed on a Brit political cabal. These tidbits from Wikipedia should get that job done:
The British National Party (BNP) is a far-right political party formed as a splinter group from the National Front by John Tyndall in 1982. It restricted membership to 'indigenous British' people until 2010, after a legal challenge to its constitution.
The BNP advocates "firm but voluntary incentives for immigrants and their descendants to return home", as well as the repeal of anti-discrimination legislation. (Wikipedia)
Suffice it to say, the other political parties aren't thrilled spitless with the BNP. I suspect that this antipathy played a key role in the official response, when Sion Owens - he's the BNP candidate for a slot in the Welsh Assembly elections, next month - torched a copy of the Islamikaze tome, the Koran.
Sion was bagged, tagged, and dragged to the bar of justice, after the proper authorities received a video of the fiery fun. Among other things, the video shows Sion dousing the Koran in flammable fluid, then lighting it off.
It remains to be seen, if this torch job helps, or hinders, Sion's performance in the forthcoming elections.

The Swiss killjoys are ready, willing, and eager to take some of the joy out of a brewskie lover's life. How? The Elected Tormentors want to make it illegal for restaurants and bars to lure new patrons, by deploying free beer promotions.
This stinker started with the director of the Swiss Alcohol Board, who opined that the existing ban on promotions involving other adult beverage freebies should be extended to include - GASP - beer. Damn busybodies...
Alexandre Schmidt says publicans would still be allowed to offer "spontaneous" rounds to regulars.
The proposal has drawn strong opposition from the hospitality industry as free beer promotions are common in bars, restaurants and at public events in Switzerland. Gastrosuisse chief Bernhard Kuster likened the new law to prohibition and said it would do nothing to stop alcohol abuse. (Fox News)
I need to verify it with our Professor of Piety, but I'm pretty sure that banning free beer was the 8th Deadly Sin, before it was accidentally left out of later editions of the Tome.

Egged on by the Moonbats who run Bolivia, the Black Helicopter Club is seriously considering giving Mother Earth - the entire planet - a human like status. If this bid to give Mother Earth the same rights as humans is successful, the next step is obvious. Armed with this stinker, the one worlders would mount an worldwide attack on capitalism, in the name of Mother Earth, of course. If you think the Global Warming Jihad is bad, now, prepare to be thrilled.
Bolivia will this month table a draft United Nations treaty giving "Mother Earth" the same rights as humans — having just passed a domestic law that does the same for bugs, trees and all other natural things in the South American country.
The bid aims to have the UN recognize the Earth as a living entity that humans have sought to "dominate and exploit" — to the point that the "well-being and existence of many beings" is now threatened.
The wording may yet evolve, but the general structure is meant to mirror Bolivia's Law of the Rights of Mother Earth, which Bolivian President Evo Morales enacted in January. That document speaks of the country's natural resources as "blessings," and grants the Earth a series of specific rights that include rights to life, water and clean air; the right to repair livelihoods affected by human activities; and the right to be free from pollution. It also establishes a Ministry of Mother Earth, and provides the planet with an ombudsman whose job is to hear nature's complaints as voiced by activist and other groups, including the state.

The leader of the Freedom Party in the Netherlands is already a marked man, after his film 'Fitna' thrilled he snot out of Islamikazes. I'll let you decide how thrilled they'll get after Geert releases his follow-up film, which will paint a bull's eye on the Mecca Maniac prophet in 2012:
The controversial MP announced on Friday that his film on "the barbaric life and the sick mind of Mohammed" will come out in 2012.
Earlier this week, Mr Wilders said in weekly HP/De Tijd that he wanted a public debate on the prophet. He thinks such a debate would provide support for Muslims across the whole world who want to leave the religion. He says reading the Qur'an and looking at the life of Mohammed has made him aware that Islam is "dangerous".
Mr Wilders believes a debate is needed, because people who want to leave Islam risk their lives. He thinks ex-Muslims are heroes who deserve support.
In HP/De Tijd he says, "It's time we help these people by exposing Mohammed." In the article, he suggests that Mohammed suffered from a brain tumour which made him hallucinate and that he wrote down his hallucinations down as visions. (RWN)
I can't decide what will piss off the Islamikazes more. Will it be "the barbaric life and the sick mind" rant about Mohammed? Or - and this is my personal pick to click - will they set their hair on fire over this "an untreated brain tumor made him hallucinate the demented gibberish that the rage-a-holics call the 'Qur'an'."
Afghanistan's Assault on Liberty

Is Afghanistan restoring the Taliban rules of engagement? It certainly looks like they're heading in that direction, based on a new law which is currently under consideration. A news story in ANI cites these proposed restrictions:
* The Afghan Government would close shops which sell Islamikaze uncool outfits to women. The banned clothing includes: outfits that are semi-naked, naked, transparent, or tight in a way that reveals part of the woman's body.
* Weddings will be limited to 300 guests.
* Local government officials will regulate the wedding meal's menu, limiting, among other things, the cost per person, to $5.
* The Religious Affairs Ministry will deploy Islamikaze wedding police to make life miserable for everyone attending a private wedding ceremony in one of Kabul's wedding halls. One of the prime wedding police duties will involve making sure that male and female guests don't - GASP - mix in the same room.
Is Afghanistan poised to restore suffocating Taliban-era restrictions? It's too soon to tell. They do, however, seem ready, willing, and eager to emulate the Sandbox rules of 'men are men, and you're not' engagement.

A Malaysian Mecca Maniac meathead set aside his work as an Elected Tormentor to focus his attention on a more pressing problem. He lectured the Malaysian Parliament on the real reason Islamikaze husbands get horizontal and squishy with 'other women'. I know this will shock you, but it's all the wife's fault.
"Husbands driving home after work see things that are sexually arousing and go to their wives to ease their urges," said independent lawmaker Ibrahim Ali, according to online portal Malaysiakini.
"But when they come home to their wives, they will say, 'wait, I'm cooking,' or 'wait, I'm getting ready to visit relatives'," Ibrahim said. "In Islam, wives are supposed to stop everything to fulfill their husband's demands."
Mecca Maniac alleged males have demonstrated, time and time again, that they can't and/or won't exert any control over their sexual impulses. That's a given. What's new here is this bull crap about the man's lack of sexual self control being his wife's fault. |

In a move that came straight from the Twilight Zone, Argentina's University of La Plata gave the prestigious press freedom award, the Rodolfo Walsh Award, to a visiting tyrant, Hugo"Skipper" Chavez. Is it another bit of April Tomfoolery? Perhaps, but I doubt it.
Apparently press 'freedom' has a different meaning in the Twilight Zone.Itappears that it's measured by a tyrant's success in shutting down privately owned media companies in Venezuela, and saturating the country with Hugo approved spin from state-owned media.
In the region of the Twilight Zone where this Ivory Tower is located, Skipper bears no resemblance to the tyrant for life who is systematically eradicating inalienable individual liberty. Instead, when viewed through that objective reality obliterating prism, Hugo is perceived as a man with an "unquestionable and authentic commitment to defending the liberty of the people, consolidating Latin American unity and defending human rights, truth and democratic values."

Incident 2: AT 1 am, our hero slammed his car into the Arch of Victory in Ballarat. During a stint in the hospital, where he was treated for a minor boo-boo, our hero had another chat with the Ballarat police. Based on the chat, they deduced our hero was doing 100 mph when he hit the immovable object. Kicked loose again? You bet.
Incident 3: After his release from the hospital, our hero hit the road in an unregistered vehicle then got into a high speed chase around 4:30 am. Slammer cit y? Nope, our teflon coated hero slipped through the justice system's fingers, again.
Incident 4: After a day's rest, our hero was out on the road again, the next night, when he got into another high speed chase with the proper authorities from Brown Hill and Warrenheip. Once again, he was bagged and tagged, but I doubt that this road warrior will let anything as petty as that keep him from perpetrating his road warrior game.
When The Truth Hurts, Attack the Messenger

When she heard about the massacre of a Jewish family living on the West Bank by those relentlessly peaceful Palestinian Islamikazes, a scribbler named Melanie Phillips posted a fiery rant on the Spectator website. Believe it or not, her incendiary online commentary didn’t thrill J.O.E.’s entrenched Korrectniks spitless. For some reason, Melanie’s PIG-worthy prose - she cited the "moral depravity" of Arab "savages" - has the cringing cowards in the Brit Press Complaints Commission in a hair torching lather.
The Guardian served up these tidbits:
The online comment piece, headlined “Armchair barbarism”, focused on media coverage of the murder of five members of a Jewish family in the West Bank settlement of Itamar by Palestinian militants earlier this month.
“The moral depravity of the Arabs is finding a grotesque echo in the moral bankruptcy and worse of the British and American ‘liberal’ media,” wrote Phillips.
“Overwhelmingly, the media have either ignored or downplayed the atrocity – or worse, effectively blamed the victims for bringing it on themselves, describing them as ‘hard-line settlers’ or extremists. To the New York Times, it’s not the Arab massacre of a Jewish family which has jeopardised ‘peace prospects’ – because the Israelis will quite rightly never trust any agreement with such savages – but instead Israeli policy on building more homes, on land to which it is legally and morally entitled, which is responsible instead for making peace elusive. Twisted, and sick.”
The column, which also referred to coverage of the murders by CNN, the BBC and the Guardian – part of the group that publishes MediaGuardian.co.uk – prompted two complaints to the press watchdog,one of them from Engage, a group promoting Muslim engagement in British society.
Predictably, it’s J.O.E.’s invading Islamikazes who are perpetrating a deafening din of caterwauling. Among other things, these Jihadikazes played the race card vilifying Melanie’s freedom of speech exercise as a "generalized racist outburst against Arabs as a whole". Cry me a river, Jihadikaze Sparky, while I look for the world’s smallest violin. In Jihadikaze-infested J.O.E., objective reality is inherently racist, if it involves inconvenient truths about Islam and its adherents.
Things That Go ‘Boom’

We the PIGs are delighted to share this explosively enjoyable epic from that bastion of religious tolerance, Nasarawa Gwom in Jos, a city in Nigeria’s Plateau state. Never heard of it? Neither have I, but, according to Bloomberg, it’s a region of Nigeria, where Cross Cultists and Islamikazes ‘resolve’ their differences, by killing each other.
More than 200 people have died in reprisal attacks by Christian and Muslim groups in the Plateau region, according to New York-based Human Rights Watch, since multiple bomb blasts in Jos city on Christmas Eve killed 80 people. A radical Islamic sect known as Boko Haram, or “Western education is a sin,” claimed responsibility for the explosions. (Bloomberg)
As a matter of fact, the featured players in this action-packed yarn were planting a bomb outside a Christian Toll Booth, when the were instantly ejected from the human gene pool, after the bomb exploded prematurely. The bad news is that premature ejectification isn’t going to get them in the queue for those celestial virgins. Life is so sucky that way. The good news is that, by forcibly exploding themselves out of the human gene pool, they aced PIG's coveted human gene pool improvement volunteer award. I’m sure that will warm the cockles of their heart, not that staying warm is a problem where those murdering bastards are spending eternity.
Freedom of Speech Sighted In Sweden?
Source: PIG News Wire [03/18/11]
The Skane Party is described - in a UPI news story - as ‘a small right-wing, anti-immigration party originally formed to protest the Swedish state radio and television monopoly and to advocate self-government for the province of Skane’. In other words, they’re your basic barrel of Swedish laughs.
Founded by Carl P. Herslow in 1979, the Skane Party decided to test the tolerance of the Islamikazes who infest Sweden. How? Carl Herslow produced a poster which shows the Mecca Maniac prophet, Mohammed, standing next to his 9-year-old wife. So what? Oh, did I forget to mention that both of them are stark naked? Holy full frontal nudity, Batman. Leaving nothing to chance, Carl Herslow kicked the poster up a notch, with this prose: “He is 53 and she is 9. Is this the kind of wedding we want to see in Skane?”
The cow squeeze hit the rotating cooling device, in 2010, when the proper authorities seized copies of the poster and subjected Carl Herslow to the tender mercy of the Swedish justice system. When it was all said and done, Carl was ruled not guilty of ‘agitation against an ethnic group’, and not guilty of violating Sweden’s press freedom laws.
The good news for Carl is that he didn’t get hammered by the Swedish justice system. The bad news is that those Titans of Tolerance, the perpetually pissed off Islamikazes, will probably try to invoke their own brand of 7th century ‘justice’ on him. Watch your back, Carl.
Making Complete Boobs of Themselves
Source: Golden Oinks [03/18/11]
Sweater puppies ran away with the FSOP’s body part of the week award, but not for the obvious reasons. I know what you’re thinking and I strongly resemble that, but it’s not the reason for this award. Boobs made the cut because, two groups of pinheads, in different parts of the world, had a boobs-related brain fart.
First out of the gate were the female phobic Islamikazes on Pakistan’s Council of Islamic Ideology who whined about ‘the use of padded and colorful [boulder holders]’ by Islamikaze women. Just getting started, they complained that despite the tent-like fit of female Islamikaze attire, it’s still possible to detect their babely bumps. What to do? If you’re an Islamikaze alleged male who can’t control his sexual impulses, you ask Pakistani Islamikaze researchers (I’m guessing that’s a very short list) to invent a boulder holder that renders those inconvenient babely bumps invisible.
If you think that’s a fun as it gets, I tend to agree, up to a point. Believe it or not, this Pakistani Islamikaze cabal hasn’t cornered the market, when it comes to waging war on babely bumps. Venezuela’s moon-faced circle of hell, Hugo Skipper Chavez, is complaining about our body part of the week, too.
Hugo hasn’t, as far as I can tell, ventured as deep into the ‘ban the boob’ Twilight Zone as the alleged men in Pakistan. He may or may not be okey dokey with a woman’s ‘god given’ sweater puppies. The jury is still out on that issue. Hugo has, however, declared war on the asset enhancing ‘boob job’, which is all the rage in his outpost of tyranny. He thinks it’s a ‘monstrous thing’ that, every year, 30,000 to 40,000 Venezuelan women expand their babely horizons, putting his country in the running for ‘boob job capitol of the world. If this is the number 1 issue in his country, life is inexplicably good and Hugo should stop whining and get on with it.

Prison Break Out...In?
While the relevant innkeepers were busy making certain that all their graybar hotel guests are present and accounted for, some daring thieves paid a visit to the New Plymouth Prison (New Zealand) administration building. That’s right, PIGsters, some daring desperados broke into the prison.
After sneaking into the prison, the thieves forced open a window in the administration building, then helped themselves to a 50-inch plasma boob tube. On the way out, the bold as brass thieves set the window curtains on fire, to distract prison officials during their getaway.
While the firefighters put out the flames, they noticed signs that a window had been forced open, so they notified the cops. When the police arrived, they discovered that the only thing missing was that oversized plasma boob tube.
If you were near this graybar around midnight on Friday (03/04/11) and spotted some dudes carrying an plasma television set on, or near, Huatoki walkway, the graybar’s innkeepers would really like to hear from you.
More Sandbox Hilarity
Channeling their inner Mister Blackwell, those wild and crazy guys in the Saudi religious police - the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice - raided dress shops in the town of Taif. Why? Because there aren’t any rational adults in the Kingdom, so there’s nobody to tell them ‘knock it off’ and make it stick. Also, and this will thrill you, the religious police have so much spare time on their hands they have written standards on the kind of dresses that Saudi shop owners are allowed to sell.
When the raids started, the smart shop keepers closed up their outpost of capitalism and got the hell out of Dodge. Those who stayed to endure the antics of the Saudi Supernaturalism Gestapo where compelled to sign a ‘I’ll never sell this stuff again’ pledge. It’s just another day in the Sandbox.
I need somebody, anybody, to tell me, with a straight face, how Sharia is the least bit compatible with inalienable individual liberty. I need somebody, anybody, to tell me with a straight face, how this crap venerates women.
Teacher’s Pet, With a Twist
The featured players in this drama are: a 15-year-old Brit lad, a 30-year-old teaching assistant named Leah Davies. Leah Davies befriended the lad’s mother, at least 3 years ago, a fact which put her in harm’s way, since she spent a lot of time with the lad's family. Since Leah's 10 year old son is a friend of the lad's the two families went on holidays together. Leah She also looked after the lad and his sister, when the lad’s mother was out of town.
Eventually, Leah and the lad started canoodling, then the relationship became serious, when she gave him at least one hummer, then got horizontal and squishy with the lad. That 2009 interlude was short lived, and landed Leah in a lot of hot water with the Brit justice system, where Leah caught a break. Yes, she was convicted of four counts of sexual activity with a child, but, the judge took the road less traveled with this ruling from the bench:
"There have been cases in which the power in a relationship has been imbalanced, with the younger person having less. But that’s not the case here. The complainant, if he can be described as such, was a gregarious young man who played in a band and was sexually experienced. The experience was short-lived and required no coercion. He touched you first. He was not seduced or corrupted by the experience. None of the matters to which I have referred, nor the nature of the relations as I’ve described them is meant to make light of this type of case. It is not common but nor is it unknown." (Daily Mail)
After calling Leah an "ordinary, decent, hard-working woman who made a tragic and foolish mistake", Judge Martin Rudland imposed a 12-month suspended sentence, plus ‘a two-year supervision order’ (probation, more or less). It seems fair, to this pagan scribbler, but that’s just me, so you’ll have to make your own call on this one.

Nostalgia Stinks
If you’re a city dweller who misses those familiar aromas from your formative years on the family farm, I have some sensory stimulating news for you. For the low, low, price of about $8 - not including shipping charges from the source of this sensory feast in Germany - you can breathe in the heady aroma of - I am not making this up - COW FARTS. That’s right, cow farts.
Metro.UK served up these bovine butt gas facts:
Tins filled with the air sucked out of an ageing wooden stable, straw lined and filled with gas producing cattle has become an instant hit after it went on sale in Germany. Managers of the 'Countryside air to go' project say their clients are mainly country people who have moved to the city and want to be reminded of home. The cans cost £5 a pop and can be ordered from the web site www.stallduft.de.
One advert boasts: 'Simply put your nose to the tin and peel back the lid for the authentic smell of the country'.
Designer Daniela Dorrer from the village of Adlkofen in Bavaria in Germany said: 'We hope to make people who miss the countryside happy and remind them of home. 'We are planning other smells such as horse, straw, pigs and manure. But most people miss the smell of the cows in the country, not really surprising as much of the smell is from cows.'
Cow farts? At those prices? I don’t think so, Tim. BUT...If someone could box up the ‘farmer’s daughter’ of popular myth, I might consider it.

Fact: Ciudad Juarez is a city with a population of 1,328,017 which is just across the border from El Paso, Mexas.
Fact: Afghanistan has a population of 29,121,286.
Fact: During 2010, 2,421 Afghani civilians were killed.
Fact: During 2010, 3,111 civilians were killed in Juarez.
If you do the math, you come up with some chilling numbers. A civilian in Juarez is 30 times more likely to be killed, than a civilian in Afghanistan, which is a very active war zone.
Nurse Yum Yumski sits out Libya’s Civil War
Libya’s embattled leader, Muammar Muhammad al-Gaddafi, lost more than the lion’s share of his country. He has also been cut off from Galyna Kolotnytska, the voluptuous blond Ukranian nurse who has been a fixture in the embattled tyrant’s life.
After the shooting started, Nurse Yum Yumski contacted her daughter back home, and told her she was on the way home, until the civil war is settled. She has not ruled out returning, if Muammar defies the odds and wins his battle for control of Libya.
Why, you ask, does Muammar rely entirely on Galyna and several other Ukrakian women to attend to his medical needs? If you need that answer, you’ll find it when you do a Goggle search for Galyna’s picture. Muammar is a vile piece of tyrannical crap, but he sure knows how to pick them.
Another Day, Another H & S Brainfart In J.O.E.
The insanity started, last year, when the Leicestershire County Council banished certain ‘dangerous’ eye protection, worrying that it could snap back in tyke faces and cause injuries. Furthermore, the same ‘dangerous’ eye protection reduced a tyke’s peripheral vision, which might cause injury, when they did a header into some immovable object. Following the Leicestershire Council’s lead, the Hertfordshire County Council jumped on the same Health & Safety bandwagon.
What are these ‘dangerous’ eye protectors that have been banned by Health & Safety asshats in Leicestershire, Hertfordshire and, quite recently, by the Oxfordshire County Council? They’re the goggles that many young ‘uns wear during school swimming lessons.
Where, you ask, are these H & S asshats getting these ideas? I think they pull them out of their butts, but they swear they’re ‘inspired’ by this cow squeeze:
A spokesman for Oxfordshire County Council refused to divulge the specific reason why goggles had been banned from its swimming pools. "This local authority, like others throughout the UK, reflects to schools the national guidance provided by various governing sport bodies on this issue," he said. "These organisations include The Amateur Swimming Association (ASA), the Swimming Teachers Association (STA), the Association for Physical Education and the Institute of Sport and Recreation Management."
The ASA said it did not have a strict policy on goggle use, but offered guidance to pool operators and parents.
The STA said children should be encouraged to not wear goggles in swimming lessons, but recognised they may be necessary for medical or other reasons. It added that goggles should meet British standards and fit correctly. (London Telegraph)
For the umpteenth time, I am compelled to ask, "Don’t these clowns have something better to do?". For the umpteenth time, I’m compelled to answer: "Apparently not."
Black Helicopter Club Is SO Over Libya’s Lunatic Leader

According to CNS News, the Black Helicopter Club is doing what it usually does during a crisis: nothing. Well, next to nothing:
The U.N. Security Council Tuesday issued a press statement condemning the Libyan regime’s violence against civilians — the weakest option available to it, short of saying nothing.
The U.S. and Security Council members’ envoys characterized the statement as a robust response to the crisis.
Brazilian ambassador Maria Luiza Viotti, who chairs the 15-member council this month, read the statement followiong hours of closed-door consultations, calling it “a strong message.”
British ambassador Mark Lyall Grant described it as “extremely strong,” and U.S. deputy ambassador Rosemary DiCarlo said the international community had condemned the violence “in one clear and unified voice.”
For those of you who are newbies in the PIGdom, I’ll review my legendary Hierarchy of U.N. Disapproval, which was obtained through our top secret sources.
1) Frown
2) Frown and finger shaking
3) Stern memo

6) Secretary General threatens to hold his breath until he turns blue.
7) After he passes out, the U.N. regroups by letting everyone vent at a General Assembly whine-a-thon.
8) Ignore the facts and/or change the subject, by serving up a Security Council resolution condemning Israel.
9) Thunder ominously about American imperialism when Uncle Sam vetoes the resolution.
10) Hold a press conference announcing "We did everything we could."

This week, we salute an Aussie Elected Tormentor, Senator Cory Bernardi, who is the parliamentary secretary for the Liberal party. I know what you’re thinking, and normally you’d be right that ‘Liberal Party’ tends to negate any PIGish kudos. Normally, but not this time.
We the PIGs salute Senator Bernardi for daring to get real about Mecca Mania. How real did he get? Jihadikaze death threat real. How did he manage that? The Herald Sun served up these PIG-worthy Cory Bernardi pronouncements:
“Islam itself is the problem — it’s not Muslims. Muslims are individuals that practise their faith in their own way, but Islam is a totalitarian, political and religious ideology. It tells people everything about how they need to conduct themselves, who they’re allowed to marry and how they’re allowed to treat other people.”
Senator Bernardi said Islam had “not moved on” since it was founded and that extremists wanted fundamentalist Islamic rule implemented in Australia.
Is Mecca Mania "a totalitarian, political and religious ideology"? You better believe it, given ‘em hell Cory, Sparky.
Egypt By The Numbers
Source: PIG News Wire [02/18/11]
Before, during, and after the Egyptian meltdown, commentators, bloggers, and other wishful thinkers tried to spin what happened in Egypt as an exercise in liberty and rational self government. It’s a nice fantasy, but it’s only a fantasy.
For the bitter reality, I’ll serve up these results from a Pew Research Center survey of Egyptian adults that was conducted last year:
Among highlights from the Pew poll:
• 49% of Egyptians say Islam plays only a "small role" in public affairs under President Hosni Mubarak, while 95% prefer the religion play a "large role in politics."
• 84% favor the death penalty for people who leave the Muslim faith.
• 82% support stoning adulterers.
• 77% think thieves should have their hands cut off.
• 54% support a law segregating women from men in the workplace.
• 54% believe suicide bombings that kill civilians can be justified.
• Nearly half support the terrorist group Hamas.
• 30% have a favorable opinion of Hezbollah.
• 20% maintain positive views of al-Qaida and Osama bin Laden.
• 82% of Egyptians dislike the U.S. — the highest unfavorable rating among the 18 Muslim nations Pew surveyed.
The numbers seldom lie. Before Mubarak’s ouster was even on anyone’s radar, rank and file Egyptians were already dreaming of an Islamikaze theocracy. All they need is their Khomeini, and it’s a done deal. The Muslim Brotherhood has someone who’s made to order, but that’s a topic we’ll address, later.

This week, St. Petersburg dwelling Ruskies, who braved the Russian winter, were treated to an arresting sight, in front of St. Petersburg’s Kazan Cathedral. A group of seven mini skirted Ruskie hotties were clearing away the snow and ice. Why? Why indeed.
If you’re thinking publicity stunt, you’re on the right track. They want the relevant city officials to keep the sidewalks clear of snow. Why? Because all the ice and snow keeps the men they seek from visiting the city.
An AP story shares these Ruskie hottie facts:
They're affiliated with XZ, a local group that uses beautiful women to draw attention to social problems.
Spokeswoman Eva Tornado claimed that tourism experts say foreign visitors avoid St. Petersburg in the winter because of the city's problems in dealing with its snow. She also proclaimed "we'd like more foreign men to come to the city!"
Maybe these eager wenches need to emulate the birds and ‘fly south for the winter’. If they need a refuge, the top secret PIG Bunker promises to give Ruskie hotties a warm, properly-PIGish, welcome.
The Sandbox
Our heroine - I’ll call her Moonbeam - is a 23-year-old Yemeni wench who lives in an especially rustic region of Saudi Arabia. A month ago, she walked out of her mountain village home and never returned. At first glance, it’s not remotely PIG-worthy, but we’re just getting to the fun part, the part where the wench’s family claims she has been abducted by jinn (genies).
“Her brothers and some residents in the village said she sometimes appears at night and then suddenly disappears…they told police that they believe she has been haunted and taken by jinn.”
Why, you ask, would they think that? The following prose from our Emirates 24/7 source material, provides those tasty tidbits, where’s my tinfoil headgear Sparky:
“Before she vanished, we used to take her to some Koran reciters and scholars…she used to walk into their places but we had to carry her on our way out as she appeared to be in a trance…a red fluid sometimes oozed out of her ears and noses…it was not blood and it had a strange smell…some scholars told us that she is haunted and others said she is under jinn guardianship.”
Abducted by genies? Perhaps, but, before you invest in tinfoil headgear, consider this fun fact: A year ago, our heroine ran away from home, and took refuge in another house. Recently, our Moonbeam acted nervous and moody. Is that a sign of supernatural forces at work, or, is it a signal that Moonbeam is going to hit the road again? I’ll let you make that call, PIGster Sparky.

VDDS - Malaysia
Several Islamikaze infested Malaysian states that have retreated behind a Sharia curtain are gearing up for Valentine’s Day. Unable to repeal certain troublesome aspects of human biology, the Islamikazes running the states of Kedah, Penang and Kelantan as well as central Selangor state are doing their best to make it inconvenient for boy and girl to hook up.
They’re calling this outburst of 7th Century supernaturalism "immorality checks". For those thrilling details, I’ll let Nasrudin Hasan Tantawi, head of the Islamic party PAS’s youth wing, do the heavy lifting:
“We have identified spots in these states which are used by lovers and we are deploying local religious department officials as well as party members to stop such sinful acts like casual sex which violates Islam,” Nasrudin told AFP.
He said authorities will take action against those caught in the dragnet, under Islamic laws that run in parallel with the civil justice system in Muslim-majority Malaysia.
“There have been campaigns promoting ‘no panties’ on Valentines Day and even free hotel room offers for unmarried couples. We must stop such practices here as these are sinful activities,” he added. (AFP)
Obviously Nasrudin’s brain isn’t wired for a straightforward concept like ‘none of your damn business’.
Parting shot: It’s more than a tad ironic, that the pot of gold at the end of a relentlessly prudish Islamikaze dude’s rainbow is an orgy with 72 virgins.
VDDS - Indonesia
The Indonesian Islamikazes are spreading their special brand of joy, again, this Valentine’s Day. Why? Because they’re misogynists who are incapable of controlling their sexual impulses. Determined to eradicate the utterly human, biological, drives, the Islamikazes relentlessly track down and eradicate anything that foster’s romance, including, especially, Valentine’s Day.
‘From its origins, it is recognised that the Valentine’s Day is a holiday of non-Muslims in Rome, Italy. Therefore, Valentine’s Day celebrations are forbidden for Muslims,’ MUI Dumai chairman Rozai Akbar told Antara in Dumai on Thursday.
He added that Valentine’s Day celebrations went against Islamic teachings because the celebration was akin to encouraging young people to build relationships outside marriage. (Straits Times)
If human sexuality is such a problem for this Islamikaze clown, Rozai Akbar, he might as well nip off his nads and all his problems will be solved.
Iran Cooks Up Another Asinine Edict
As far as I can tell, Mahmoud, and his regime, spend every waking minute spreading their special brand of ‘you can’t do that, it’s not properly Islamic’ joy. Over time, the definition for ‘not properly Islamic’ keeps evolving, to provide the Islamikazes with new targets.
This week, in a move that I won’t try to explain, Iranian officials painted their bull’s-eye on - I am NOT making this up - cooking shows that feature non-Iranian dishes. An AFP news story serves up these unappetizing morsels:
Iran's state-run television has been banned from screening cooking shows that promote foreign cuisine as conservatives seek to fight Western influence in the Iranian culture, media reported on Sunday.
"From now on teaching how to cook non-Iranian dishes is banned," deputy head of Iran's state broadcaster Ali Darabi was quoted as saying by Aftabnews, a moderate website, and several other media outlets.
Iran boasts a rich cuisine and cooking shows are very popular, with chefs teaching a variety of Iranian and foreign recipes on daytime television. Italian, Chinese and Indian dishes are also favoured by many Iranians, while officials warn against the increasing consumption of unhealthy fast food.
That last line, the one about ‘unhealthy fast food’, raises the obvious question. Has Mahmoud cloned the Red Shed Food Nazi, stuffed her in a burka, then turned her loose on Iran’s televised cooking shows? It’s Enquiring minds time, again, in the FSOP.

With all the serious problems resolved, South Africans are staging a major food fight over a Japanese delicacy, sushi. If this political whiz-a-thon pitted ‘sushi sucks’ individuals against ‘sushi rocks’ individuals, I might ‘get it’. Curiously, sushi is only a side issue. The real pisser is how it is served: in this case it’s deployed on the bikini clad body of a model. So what? So some alleged humans have ‘issues’ with that:
South Africa's governing party has pronounced: eating sushi off the body of a model in a bikini is politically incorrect. A statement from African National Congress secretary general Gwede Mantashe on Monday is unequivocal: "This act is anti-ANC and anti-revolutionary. This act is defamatory, insensitive and undermining of woman's integrity."
The fish-on-flesh question has raged in South African media in recent months following reports of the practice at parties of wealthy businessmen and socialites. (Stuff.co.nz)
I don’t care how tasty the model might be...I don’t care how edible she might look in a bikini...sushi is, under any, and all, circumstances VILE.

For example, like so many of our own Elected Tormentors, the Nanny State nitwits in Malawi are worried about air quality. Are Malawi’s Elected Tormentors going Smog Nazi bonkers? Nope, but they are painting a Nanny State bull’s-eye on certain ‘emissions’.
Channeling their inner Don Quixote, Malawi’s government wants to make farting in public a crime:
The government of Malawi plan to punish persistent offenders 'who foul the air' in a bid to 'mould responsible and disciplined citizens.
The crime will be enforceable in a new 'Local Court' system which will also have powers to punish a range of other crimes in the bill set to be debated in the country's parliament. These include insulting the modesty of a woman, challenging to fight a duel, and trespassing on a burial place. It also outlaws pretending to be a fortune teller, according to local press in the country.
Opposition leaders complain the new courts will be 'kangaroo courts'. (Daily Mail)
Outlawing farts? Wow...If the Libertard Moonbats hear about this...I’d rather not think about it.
Indonesia
In the infidel-infested Western World, it’s a form of self-promotion which, under the right circumstances, can be very profitable. It’s one way that a wanna be who needs a break, can get some notoriety. It’s also used by celebrities, whose star power is fading, to put their name back in play. That’s why the ‘celebrity’ sex tape is a familiar fixture in popular culture.
In Islamikaze-infested nations, like Indonesia, a sex tape can, and will, get you thrown in jail. It could also get you killed, if some Imam decides that your antics give Islam a boo-boo. That brings us to the star of this epic, an Indonesian pop star, Nazril "Ariel" Irham, who did a header into the dark underbelly of sex tape infamy, after somebody posted several of his sex tapes on the Internet.
Unlike the West, where a sex tape scandal is, at most, a public relations nightmare, Indonesia considers such things a violation of Indonesia’s Draconian anti-pornography laws. Utterly unamused, an Indonesian black robe, Judge Singgih Budi Prakoso, worried that "As a public figure, the defendant should be aware that fans might imitate his behavior." Worried or not, the judge cut this sex taping horndog some slack, when he imposed his sentence: three and a half years in an Indonesian Graybar Hotel, plus a $25,000 (dead presidents) fine.
And what, you ask, do Indonesia’s notoriously tolerant Islamikazes think about the judge’s sentence? Hard core islamikazes are outraged that this sex taping horndog didn’t get the maximum sentence: 12 years in the slammer. Is "Ariel" a marked man? Not yet, but the Imams could change that, any minute now.
Canadian Injustice
Source: PIG News Wire [01/28/11]
Mark Curtis’ header into Canada’s Korrectnik hell started 3 years ago, when he had a life-changing encounter with one of Windsor’s (Canada) urban campers. This week, Cana-DUH’s injustice system is poised to hammer this 22-year-old college student into submission.
The events of that fateful night in April 2008 aren’t in dispute. After an evening on the town, Mark and his female companion were walking toward their ride, when they spotted 47-year-old Robert Hiel trying to grab some money or other valuable from the parked cars. Mark arrived at his car, mere moments after Robert opened the car’s door. Following a heated exchange of pleasantries with the urban camper, Mark kicked it up to the next level. Unwilling to have this asshat rifle through his car, Mark Curtis punched Robert’s lights out.
Without further drama, Mark and his companion drove away, leaving Robert sprawled on the ground. It should have ended there, but Robert had a glass jaw, which made the punch he took lethal. Another urban camper - a friend of Robert’s who accompanied him on his car rifling adventure - summoned the trained medical practitioners, but it was already too late for Robert. Within 24 hours, Robert died, after doctors took him off life support.
Manslaughter? It certainly looks that way, and I don’t think Mark or his legal eagle dispute it. What pisses me off is the way the Korrectnik prosecutor, Assistant Crown Attorney Jennifer Holmes, is nominating urban camper Robert for ‘victim of society’ sainthood.
* He "battled substance abuse".
* He needed a cash infusion to procure more drugs.
* His car breaking was okey dokey, because he only stole from cars that were unlocked.
* His car rifling endeavor is cool for school, because he didn’t intend to damage the cars he was robbing.
The only thing this bleeding heart bitch didn’t trot out is ‘a bad childhood’ and 'victim of society', but she’ll probably get around to it, before the trial is over. Bite me, bitch.
Mark Curtis saw a dude rifling through his car, and it pissed him off. After heated words, he punched the bastard’s lights out. The dude died as a result so manslaughter is appropriate. None of that is a valid reason for this Korrectnik bitch to nominate Robert for sainthood. Robert’s road to self-destruction started long before his fateful encounter with Mark Curtis on that April night. Enough already with this Korrectnik blubbering.

Our central character is an immigrant who has lived in J.O.E. for 26 years. After toiling as an immigration officer, he moved on to a position as a warden for a local council in Dymchurch, Kent, where he’s part of a team that combats anti-social behavior. Despite his long tenure in J.O.E., our hero is not a happy camper. He likes his new home. He just wishes that his co-workers would stop being so blatantly RACIST.
Our hero knows his co-workers are racist, because they keep saying such vile, hateful, things to him. He’s so deeply wounded by their hate speech that he has been on sick leave since last August, due to a life shattering depression. Finally, unable to take the hate speech any longer, our hero sued his bosses, for engendering a hostile working environment where an individual must tolerate vile verbiage like the following items, on a daily basis:
"G’day, sport."
"Is your girlfriend called Sheila?"
"Throw another shrimp on the barbie."
I apologize for using language like that in a ‘family friendly’ publication like this one. I’ll spare you any more of this heart-wrenching racism, by simply stating that those hateful greetings where accompanied by a neverending stream of Aussie jokes. No wonder Geoff Stephens isn’t able to sleep at night, and is compelled to ingest enough medication to stock a small pharmacy.
That’s right, PIGsters. Geoff is an Aussie, a very thin-skinned Aussie, who would save himself a lot of heartburn, if he would take voice lessons so he can lose the Aussie accent that invites all this dubious humor about his native Australia.
I’m trying to feel your pain, dude, but it isn’t working. You’re a grown man - 48 years old - so you should be able to handle this kind of thing. I mean...RACISM? Seriously? No wonder you got a job working for the Nanny State.
Diversity Bonkers In J.O.E.
Source: PIG News Wire [01/21/11]
How Korrectnik are the Brits? Despite the ouster of the Labour government, the answer is VERY. When the Tory government was formed, it needed to make a Faustian bargain with some lefty political clans. The Liberal Democrat Party is a prime example.
One outcome of this coalition was the coronation of Lib Dem Lynne Featherstone as the Brit Equalities Minister (I’m guessing it’s something like Uncle Sam’s EEOC). Full of herself and IT, Lynne is determined to spread her special brand of joy, with a ‘how diverse are you’ questionnaire.
The Daily Mail shared these fun facts about this hyphen hunting expedition:
Millions of teachers, nurses and policemen could be asked to disclose their sexuality, religion and race as part of a new Coalition equality drive.
Lib Dem equalities minister Lynne Featherstone says all public sector organisations should consider sending ‘diversity monitoring forms’ to staff to prove they are treating all sections of society fairly.
From April, public bodies will be subject to the Equality Act – passed by Labour but taken up enthusiastically by the Coalition – which will force them to consider the impact of everything they do on the diversity of the people they serve or employ.
Miss Featherstone supports sending staff a questionnaire about their sexuality and even whether they have had a sex change. (Daily Mail)
Unhappily, a questionnaire is only the beginning. Lib Dem Lynne plans to do much more than stick her nose where it doesn’t belong. For example, police might be banned from imposing minimum height restrictions for its officers. Why? Because Lynne thinks it might discriminate against women.
The most chilling element of Lynne’s questionnaire is a warning that meeting her forthcoming equality edicts ‘‘may involve treating some people better than others, as far as this is allowed by discrimination law’. Holy Orwell, Batman!
Some are more equal than others is now the law of the land in J.O.E.
Criminalizing Childhood In J.O.E.
Source: Daily Mail [01/17/11]
Thanks to a series of asinine laws imposed by Brit Elected Tormentors, it takes a parting of the Red Sea class miracle for a Brit tyke to reach adulthood without at least one ‘hate crime’ accusation staining his permanent record. How bad is it? You be the judge:
Figures for the year 2008-9 were obtained under the Freedom of Information Act by the civil liberties group, the Manifesto Club.
They show 29,659 racist incidents reported by schools to local education authorities in England and Wales. Of these, 10,436 were at primary schools and 41 at nursery schools.
In the majority of cases, the ‘racist’ spats involved mere name-calling.
Elevating kid stuff like garden variety name calling to ‘hate crime’ status is asinine. It’s vile, when these knee-jerk Korrectniks overreact and saddle some tyke with that accusation, for the rest of his life. At most, this name calling is what the Educrats like to call ‘a teachable moment, but even that ‘we don’t use that kind of language’ chat should be kept in reserve for ‘extreme’ cases. The way things work now, a Brit tyke could be nailed with a ‘hate crime’ for frowning at someone in a ‘protected minority’.
J.O.E. is, as I’ve stated countless times, hopelessly screwed.

Boozed Up Birds
Some lab coated hooligans pinned down the reason why a flock of birds in Romania bit the dust. It’s not the Earth’s magnetic field. It’s not some top secret military device. It’s not some virulent avian flu. It’s nothing that exotic.
The birds were hungry, but the harsh winter made finding a suitable food source harder than usual. Eventually, the birds found what seemed like an ample food source at a Romanian winery. The food source is grape marc, a byproduct of the winemaking process. They glutted themselves on it, got gassed out of their minds, then died from the side effects of their high octane nosh.
File this ‘mystery’, under "nothing to see here, move along".
Dear Diary
One way the European Union indoctrinates its government school inmates is the ‘diary’. What’s that? It’s a notebook which is crammed with info that the inmate might want to know such as mobile phone costs. It also contains things that the EU bureaucrats want the tykes to ‘know’, such as the dangers of the Internet and the dire threat of ‘climate change’.
In addition to the foregoing information, the 2011 diary lists dates of Mecca Maniac festivals, Hindu festivals, Sikh festivals, Chinese festivals and even Jewish festivals. It does not, curiously enough, include a single word about Cross Cult festivals. If you’re thinking ‘major’ Cross Cult meltdown, give yourself a cookie.
When the blowback hit them, the EU twerps who perpetrated the 2011 diaries were suitably apologetic, and full to bursting with mea culpa hot air. On the other hand, when asked to explain how this Cross Cult exclusion happened, they had nothing to offer. They might not have anything to offer, but at least one Elected Tormentor has plenty to say about it:
German conservative MEP delegate Martin Kastler blamed’ aggressive atheism in the apparatus of the European Union-Commission‘ and called it ‘unbearable.’ He added; ‘It is impudent to say that it was merely a mistake, however big. I demand that the responsible officials be called to account immediately. ‘I expect a personal apology from the Commission president because I believe this was intentionally published in this way.’ (Daily Mail)
Is the EU that bold? Would they deliberately bitch slap Cross Cultism? Unless someone comes up with a better reason, I’m compelled to believe they did it on purpose and thought they could get away with it.
Bagged & Tagged In Alberta
Source: PIG News Wire [01/14/11]
Tim Lynch and his son Kris were understandably pissed, after a some sticky fingered asshat ripped off their Alberta (Canada) farm, several times. The next time the thief showed up, they would be ready for him, her, himher, or it. They got their chance on a Wednesday morning, when they detected a strange truck on their property. Was it ‘him’? The similarity of the tire tracks said ‘yup’.
Were Tim and his son up to the challenge? You bet, but their crime busting had some thrilling moments.
The confrontation started when Kris spotted their quarry sitting in a truck. When Kris tried to waylay the intruder, the uninvited guest shoved the truck in gear then floored the accelerator. His escape strategy almost worked, but Kris foiled his departure, by jumping onto the truck’s running board.
Reaching into the truck, Kris held onto the steering wheel, then grabbed gear shift stick and rammed it into park.
When Kris yelled for him, papa Tim jumped into the truck, hanging on for dear life, when the thief got rolling again, then careened across the yard. Eventually, father and son overpowered the thief, whom they wrestled into the backseat. Kris tussled with the intruder, while papa Tim fetched some rope.
In control, finally, father and son, bagged and tagged their nemesis, then waited for the proper authorities to arrive:
The duo then dropped the man, who was wearing pyjama pants but no underwear, onto the snow and "his bare ass was hanging out," Kris said. "We tied it around his ankles and then grabbed another rope and tied his hands up and the police arrived about 40 minutes later," he said. (CNEWS)
Did the proper authorities congratulate Tim and Kris for a job well done. Not exactly:
Sgt. Patrick Webb advised caution when nabbing a suspect. "The Criminal Code provides for a certain level of use of force to protect property, but anyone using force ... has to be cognizant of the fact they could be charged," he said.
Since the RCMP are acting like ‘tools’, We the PIGS will say what needs to be said to the Lynches: nice takedown gentlemen.
A Dizzying Gender Bending Epic
Source: PIG News Wire [01/07/11]
In the beginning, our featured Czech characters were as follows:
Ilona Tomeckova, a married female.
Radim, Ilona’s male offspring.
Tomas Kajzar, a male body builder.
In the fullness of time, the names - along with assorted other things - changed:
Ilona moved out, had a sex change, then emerged as a dude named Dominik Sejda.
By the time Ilona/Dominik met Tomas, he was living as a woman named Andrea Kajzarova, but he hadn’t nipped off his nads, yet.
Are we all on the same page, PIGsters, or do you need a moment to review all that? Take your time...
Eventually, after Dominik (Ilona) and Andrea (Tomas) paired off, Dominik decided to walk down memory lane, so heshe contacted hisher former husband who had thrilling news for himher. Radim (whom heshe left behind 15 years earlier) was following in ‘mommy’s’ footsteps and was in the process of evolving (aided and abetted by medical practitioners) into a girl named Viktoria.
A woman who became a man meets man who became a woman? I think I have that part down, but don’t bet the farm on it. It’s that last bit that threw me: the woman who became a man has a son who is becoming her/his daughter. ‘Gender bending’ is woefully inadequate for this one.
Parting shot: I need a cold one, after wrapping my synapses around this gender bending epic.

When Romania’s Elected Tormentors had the nation’s bean counters run the numbers, the results didn’t thrill them spitless. Facing a lot more red ink than they wanted or needed, Romania’s government did what government’s always do in such situations, they punished their nation’s denizens by piling on new taxes.
It’s hardly breaking news, when citizens curse Nanny State nitwits for piling on taxes. We’ve all been there, done that, too many times to count. It still isn’t PIG-worthy, when a segment of the Romanian economy protests being hit with taxes for the first time ‘curses’ the Tax Nazis. So did I bring it up? Why indeed.
Outraged that Romanian officials want to take their money, Romania’s witches plan to bring out the heavy artillery: cat poop, room temperature mutts, and mandrake to teach Romanian officials the errors of their ways.
Romanian witches from the east and west will head to the southern plains and the Danube River on Thursday to threaten the government with spells and spirits because of the tax law, which came into effect Jan. 1.
A dozen witches will hurl the poisonous mandrake plant into the Danube to put a hex on government officials "so evil will befall them," said a witch named Alisia. She identified herself with one name -- customary among Romania's witches.
"This law is foolish. What is there to tax, when we hardly earn anything?" she said by telephone Wednesday. "The lawmakers don't look at themselves, at how much they make, their tricks; they steal and they come to us asking us to put spells on their enemies." (AOL News)
Witches, astrologers and fortune tellers aren’t the only self-employed individuals who got hit with a 16% tax on their income, plus additional ‘assessments’ for health and pension programs. Valets, driving instructors and embalmers were also added to the Romanian labor code. Pissing off witches, valets and driving instructors strikes me as ‘no harm, no foul’, but I’d think twice about antagonizing embalmers. I’d steer clear of THEM. You heard it here, first.
Iranian Killjoys Ban Cupid
Source: PIG News Wire [01/07/11]
Determined to banish human biology from their 7th century Islamikaze paradise, Iran’s self-appointed killjoys are in an all out war against romance. When Sharia’s Draconian rules of boy meets girl engagement don’t get the job done, then Iranian officials are ready to deal with any utterly unIslamic canoodling.
This week, with THAT day fast approaching, the killjoys are out in force, eradicating all infestations of that infidel pestilence: Valentine’s Day:
Shops in Iran have been banned from selling Valentine cards and gifts, the ILNA news agency reported on Sunday, as the traditional lovers' day gains increasing popularity in the Islamic republic.
"In the run-up to Valentine's Day on February 14 the printing works owners' union issued a directive banning the printing and distribution of any goods promoting this day," ILNA news agency reported.
"Printing and producing any goods related to this day including posters, boxes and cards emblazoned with hearts or half-hearts, red roses and any activities promoting this day are banned," the union said in the directive.
"Outlets that violate this will be legally dealt with," it warned. (AFP)
The Iranian killjoys can probably win their war on Valentine’s Day, but, no matter how hard they try, they’ll never eradicate those primal, biological, urges that makes boy and girls seek each other out. In other words, if you fool around and try to thwart Mother Nature, she’ll kick your killjoy ass.

While the Iranian killjoys are doing their utmost to make boy meets girl virtually impossible, certain enterprising Iranian capitalists are seizing the moment. After assessing the artificial void created by boy meets girl thwarting killjoys, these capitalists smuggled in just what a horny boy without a girl needs: that infamous infidel product, the sex doll.
You won’t need a fatwa from an Islamikaze cleric to deduce that the killjoys are not the least bit amused:
Deputy Health Minister Ebrahim Motavelian told Fars news agency that after his ministry was informed about the smuggling of sex dolls, it had launched investigations about the main source of the import and distribution of the dolls.
The Health Ministry is entitled to import mannequins and even dolls but only as medical devices and solely for scientific purposes and with explicit permission of the customs authorities.
Motavelian denied rumours that the sex dolls were imported via companies affiliated to the Health Ministry. He said that the dolls were imported illegally into the country. (AFP)
Determined to make my day, this Iranian clown said: "The dignity of Iran will not allow import and distribution of such articles." That - the dignity of Iran" - apparently, is how "where’s my cut of the action" translates into Farsi. Learn something new, every day.

By now, you’ve heard the usual suspects from around the world, pinning the blame for the harsh winter which is raging in America, J.O.E., and elsewhere, on Global Warming. This "Globally Warmed Snow" mantra is also coming from the lab coated hooligans at the Climate Research Unit at University of East Anglia (ground zero for climate gate).
Against that background, PIG News serves up this 2000 vintage, Global Warming alarmism, news item from a Brit fishwrap, The Independent:
Britain’s winter ends tomorrow with further indications of a striking environmental change: snow is starting to disappear from our lives.
Sledges, snowmen, snowballs and the excitement of waking to find that the stuff has settled outside are all a rapidly diminishing part of Britain’s culture, as warmer winters — which scientists are attributing to global climate change — produce not only fewer white Christmases, but fewer white Januaries and Februaries. . . .
Global warming, the heating of the atmosphere by increased amounts of industrial gases, is now accepted as a reality by the international community. Average temperatures in Britain were nearly 0.6C higher in the Nineties than in 1960-90, and it is estimated that they will increase by 0.2C every decade over the coming century. Eight of the 10 hottest years on record occurred in the Nineties.
However, the warming is so far manifesting itself more in winters which are less cold than in much hotter summers. According to Dr David Viner, a senior research scientist at the climatic research unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia, within a few years winter snowfall will become “a very rare and exciting event”.
“Children just aren’t going to know what snow is,” he said. (Independent, emphasis added.)
Once again, these Globally Warmed alarmists are talking out of both sides of their mouths. There’s nothing worse than a pathological liar who can’t keep his story straight.
A Socialize Medicine Adventure

Motivated by some unspecified medical matter, our hero - we’ll call him Crash - drove his 1987 Chevy Blazer down to Kelowna General Hospital (British Columia, Cana-DUH). When he got there, he was suitably thrilled, after a hospital minion told him he would see a medical practitioner in 45 minutes.
Crash was not a happy camper, when his 45 minutes elapsed and he still hadn’t seen a doctor. Pissed, he stormed out, thought better of it, then returned with a pointed pleasantry intended to prioritize his request for medical attention:
Crash: "If you don’t let me see a doctor, NOW, I’ll drive my car though the emergency room doors."
Hospital minion: "Go ahead, make my day." (A PIGish approximation of the response.)
Crash stormed out again, got in his Blazer, then drive it through the emergency room’s doors. Did that prioritize him? Yes, but not the way he intended. In record time, Crash was exchanging pleasantries with some justice system professionals, who gave him INSTANT service all the way to the booking area at the local graybar hotel.
Parting shot: While the medical professionals finally attend to Crash’s physical ailments, they should spend some quality time examining Crash’s noodle.

If Dutch police have a theme song, it’s probably "Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow". Why? Because snow is a user-friendly crime fighting tool. How? How indeed.
After a heavy snowfall, Dutch police drive up and down streets, looking for roofs that are devoid of snow. When they spot one, they make note of it as a possible location for an indoor weed growing operation. They know that, if the ‘farm’ is in the attic, all those heat producing grow lights make the snow on the roof melt.
The snow also makes trailing the perps, who escape on foot after a robbery, much easier. The footprints make tracking the desperados to their lair, so much easier, Dutch police probably pine for 12 months of Winter.

This improbable tale takes place on a crocodile farm, the Hamat Gadar crocodile farm in the Golan Heights, yes THOSE Golan Heights. While you try to wrap your minds around the notion of a crocodile farm in Israel, I’ll get down to business.
The fun fact about this outpost of reptile wrangling capitalism, is that it’s located beneath the airspace which Israel uses to train its fighter pilots. That means sonic booms are heard on a regular basis and that brings us to another strange fact. The male crocs aren’t up to speed on sonic booms and are misinterpreting the ensuing vibrations as the calls of rival males who are invading their territory. As a result, the males are making their ‘hey baby’ calls several months ahead of the spring mating season.
Despite the males’ willingness to get it on, they’re forced to go without, because the females aren’t in the mood, and won’t be, until the spring booty call season arrives. Hmm. How does ‘not tonight, honey, I’ve got a headache’ translate into ‘croc’? It’s enquiring minds time in the PIG Bunker.
Hugo Tightens His Grip In Venezuela
Source: Fox News [12/19/10]
Hugo "Skipper" Chavez might look, and act, like buffoon, but this moonface Marxist is a very clever commie bastard. For example, after the recent elections, his power in the National Assembly was eroded by a upsurge of support for his political rivals. The resulting balance of power would make it much harder for Hugo to ram through his Marxist policies. What to do? What indeed.
Boldly going where Barry, Whorehouse Harry, and San Fran Nan only dream of going, Hugo pulled off an amazing power play, which reset the bar for audacious lame duck legicrap. Hugo virtually negated the recent elections, when the outgoing National Assembly granted Hugo special, dictatorial, powers for the next 18 months. That means Hugo is legally empowered to enact laws by decree, without getting approval from the National Assembly. In one masterstroke, Hugo singlehandedly rendered his political rivals powerless.
Hugo didn’t lose any time before making his first move. Boldly going where even the goose-stepping goons on America’s FCC haven’t gone, yet, Hugo clamped a regulatory muzzle on the Internet, a move carefully calculated to control the flow of information in his outpost of dictatorial tyranny. And what, you ask, are Hugo and his legislative toadies planning to do with this power?
* Ban messages/postings that "disrespect public authorities".
* Ban messages/postings that "incite or promote hatred".
* Ban messages/postings that create "anxiety" in the population.
Hugo and his toadies insist that they aren’t undermining the Venezuelans' freedom of speech, and they flatly reject the accusation that they’re imposing a Draconian censorship on the Internet. They are, they proclaim with the relevant fervor, ‘protecting’ Venezuelans from online ‘crimes’.
Stick a fork in what’s left of your liberty, Venezuela, because it is DONE.
Red Cross Grinches

If you were planning to honor this season of gift giving by donating some extra money to the Red Cross, you might want to rethink that charitable act, especially if you live in J.O.E. (Jolly Old England, and you should know it by now). Why? In an outburst of willful Grinchiness, a decree came down from on high (Red Cross HQ in London) which banished all traces of Christmas from 430 Red Cross fund raising outposts throughout J.O.E.
Here, for those who can stomach it, is the bull crap pooped out by a Red Cross spokeshole:
"The Red Cross is a neutral organisation and we don't want to be aligned with any political party or particular philosophy. We don't want to be seen as a Christian or Islamic or Jewish organisation because that might compromise our ability to work in conflict situations around the world. In shops people can put up decorations like tinsel or snow which are seasonal. But the guidance is that things representative of Christmas cannot be shown." (Daily Mail)
I’ve got a hot flash for this fool. For Jihadikazes, there’s no such thing as ‘neutral’. For them, if you’re not Islamikaze, you’re the enemy, an enemy that must be eradicated. By trying to appease the unappeasable, all the Red Cross is doing is alienating its friends, for NOTHING!
As fun as this sounds, it gets much better, because in a fit of jaw-dropping hypocrisy, the Red Cross’s line of ‘for profit’sales items include ‘Christmas cards featuring angels and wise men and Advent calendars with nativity scenes’. Okay, so they’re hypocrites, it’s a small price to pay for thrilling Islamikazes spitless, isn't it? It all hinges on the Islamikaze reaction which isn’t, in at least one instance, light years away from thrilled spitless.
The unintentionally ironic, fun, fact is this: a Mecca Maniac, Labour Party Elected Tormentor Lord Ahmed, seems to think the Brit Red Cross has its head up its ass, over this Islamikaze appeasement:
"It is stupid to think Moslems would be offended...In my business all my staff celebrate Christmas and I celebrate with them. It is absolutely not the case that Christmas could damage the Red Cross reputation for neutrality - I think their people have gone a little bit over the top." (Daily Mail)
The primary consequences of this Red Cross Grinchiness are the unintended ones. In addition to alienating its friends, the Red Cross Grinches are earning derision from the Islamikazes they’re trying to appease. If Epic Fail is what they had in mind, the Red Cross has the FSOP’s permission to break out the ‘Mission Accomplished’ banner.
Parting shot: The Brit Red Cross’s knee-jerk Korrectness is just the tip of the iceberg, because higher up the food chain - the Swiss-based International Red Cross - Korrectness has reached such a fever pitch, the charity was frantically seeking something, anything, to replace its famous icon, the white cross. That effort a was abandoned - allegedly - several years ago, due to a tidal wave of blowback.
Seditious Eyes

You won’t be shocked to learn that this happened in the Sandbox (Saudi Arabia). Given that tidbit, you won’t be gobsmacked, when I tell you that the prime movers are those roving rampaging retards, the Sandbox’s religious police (Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice). You will be thrilled spitless, after I tell you what has them setting their dishrag headgear on fire, this time.
The fun started, after a Saudi hubby was accosted by one of these rampaging retards. When the religious cop ordered the husband to have his wife cover up her face, the hubby had a memorable meltdown, which reached critical mass when he (hubby) was stabbed in the back during the fight. As fun as this sounds, it gets much better.
The reason for this melee is the fun fact that hubby’s bride had her eyes uncovered. Her eyes were showing and, under the prevailing rules of babes in baggies engagement, that might be an excuse for the rampaging retards to intervene. Since I can’t do this one justice, I’ll give it to you straight, as reported by the ‘Emirates 24/7' web site:
“The Commission members have orders to tell any women in public to cover up her face if they find that her eyes are seditious.” (Sheikh Mutlaq Al Nabit, a spokeshole for the rampaging retards)
"Seditious eyes"? All it takes to ‘incite rebellion against the authority of the state or monarch’ is a Sandbox wench flashing a pair of hubba-hubba peepers? Seriously? The Sandbox King’s grip on his oil saturated realm is shakier than anyone realized.

The Joke’s On Them
When it comes to American humor, it, invariably, loses something in the translation. The loss is due, in large part, to cultural differences, but language also plays a key role. When the country on the receiving end is the Sandbox (Saudi Arabia), both factors come into play.
This ‘lost in the translation’ episode revolves around a humorous column written by a Huffington Post scribbler named Andy Borowitz. In his column, Andy aimed his wit at the negotiations between The One and the Elephant Clan contingent on Capitol Hill.
AFP served up these tasty tidbits:
When a US satirist joked that President Barack Obama will admit to Congress that he is Muslim in his latest compromise with Republicans, Saudi media took it seriously.
On Friday the online version of Al-Hayat newspaper and the prominent news website Sabq.org both reported straightforwardly humourist Andy Borowitz's column that began:
"In his latest effort to find common ground with Republicans in Congress, President Barack Obama said today that he was willing to agree that he is a Muslim."
"In agreeing that he is a Muslim, Mr. Obama is sending a clear signal that he is trying to find consensus," Borowitz said in the column posted on the Huffington Post and The Borowitz Report websites this week.
Both Al-Hayat, one of the Middle East's most influential newspapers, and Sabq, believed to be controlled by the Saudi interior ministry, apparently missed the joke. (AFP)
For a very long time, I’ve been advising the Sandbox set that they need to develop a sense of humor. Obviously, they’re not heeding my advice. Maybe this incident will get them headed in the right direction.
It’s The JOOOOOZ!
There’s something deadly in Red Sea waters off the Egyptian resort town of Sharm e Sheikh. It started, more than a week ago, when four Ruskie swimmers had a close, too close, encounter with Jaws. As bad as that sounds, it was destined to get worse, because the next shark wasn’t content with merely nibbling on swimmers.
On the first weekend in December, another shark attacked and killed a German woman, who was snorkling at Nama Bay. The beast’s first bite took off the woman’s arm, killing her immediately.
Alarmed, the proper authorities started looking for those responsible. Most of them are looking in the Red Sea, a search which produced several prime suspects. There are, however, some Egyptian officials who think they’re searching in the wrong place for the guilty parties. Instead of the Red Sea, these officials think the search area should be farther north, in Israel, because, they’re convinced that the JOOOOZ are trying to destroy Sinai peninsula tourism with these shark attacks:
Egyptian officials say they have not ruled out the possibility that a fatal shark attack in Sinai on Sunday could have been a plot by the Mossad.
“What is being said about the Mossad throwing the deadly shark [in the sea] to hit tourism in Egypt is not out of the question, but it needs time to confirm,” South Sinai Gov. Muhammad Abdel Fadil Shousha was quoted as saying by the Egyptian state news site egynews.net. (Jerusalem Post)
Israeli officials - quite rightly - refused to comment on such an asinine idea. Other rational adults suggest that over-fishing has forced the sharks to seek new feeding grounds and are looking for food much closer to shore. Jewish sharks? Seriously? WOW!
Sheer Insanity In J.O.E.

Like too many of the really asinine ideas, this stinker from J.O.E. was pooped out by a shyster - the Brits called this monumental moron a ‘family law expert’. Her name - which will live in infamy, if her notion is approved - is Helen Reece and she’s an Egghead at the London School of Economics. She thinks life would be terminally spiffy, if - I am not making this up - convicted sex offenders weren’t banned from working with children, becoming a foster parent, or - TA DA - adopting a tyke. What could possibly go wrong?
If this Reece really THAT insane? You be the judge:
A report by a family law expert argues that some sex offenders should be allowed to adopt or foster children, and claims that the current blanket ban is discriminatory.
"Sex offenders shouldn't all be tarred with the same brush," said Helen Reece at the London School of Economics, who wrote the report. "People need to be carefully screened for adoption and fostering, but each case should be taken on its merits.
"There shouldn't be blanket rules. What somebody has done before is not necessarily what he or she will do again. When someone has served a sentence, as far as you can, you should treat them the same as anyone else."
The report points to legal challenges that have overturned other blanket bans on adoption, including a 2008 case in which the House of Lords said rules in Northern Ireland preventing cohabiting couples from adopting children were discriminatory.
"If we believe that blanket bans are an effective and legitimate means to protect children then we should no more allow cohabiting couples to adopt or foster than convicted sex offenders," said Reece. (Guardian)
I’m convinced. She’s NUTS, and needs to be fitted for a straightjacket. Tragically, the Brits are so twisted, they’ll probably think letting perverts be foster parents, etc. is ‘an idea whose time has come’. J.O.E. is SO screwed that it can’t be quantified.

A Canadian dude named Milo Yakibcuk did everything he was supposed to do, but, despite calling a taxi to drive him home, he got busted for DUI, had his ride impounded, got his license pulled, and is looking at approximately $4,060 (Canadian) in fines. He got all that, because he wasn’t driving his car.
After a generous infusion of adult beverages, Milo knew he was too drunk to drive. He’d anticipated that likelihood, and he arrived at the bar with a designated driver. Unhappily, his driver had departed, leaving Milo high and dry. Pissed, Milo walked it off, stopping for some coffee, while he decided on his next move. Eventually, he was cool enough to get on with it.
Milo returned to the watering hole, where he asked an employee to call him a taxi. Next, not wanting to leave his car sitting in front of the bar, he pushed his car down the street a short distance, to a more suitable parking spot. It was during this operation that a RCMP officer showed up. That’s when Milo’s night went into the crapper.
Unwilling to listen to anything Milo had to say, the RCMP officer insisted on administering a breathalyzer test on Milo. The officer’s snarky attitude didn’t change, when Milo explained that he had already arranged for a cab ride home. Milo also asked, politely, about his rights, since he was not driving his car and didn’t plan to drive it. None of it registered with the officer, who kept on writing Milo up, despite the arrival of his cab.
By asking about his rights Milo had - the proper authorities insist - ‘refused to take a spin on the drunk-o-meter’. In Canada, refusing to be tested, is scored a ‘fail’, and ‘fail’ on the drunk-o-meter is the last thing you want, because the consequences are EXTREME:
According to ICBC, when a fail is administered, a driving prohibition is issued for 90 days, the vehicle is automatically impounded for 30 days, with estimated towing and storage costs around $700, an administrative penalty of $500, and driver’s licence reinstatement fee of $250. In addition, the driver must take a responsible driver program which costs approximately $880, and and ignition interlock is required for one year with a cost of $1,730. (Comox Valley Record)
Milo got shafted, because the RCMP officer who showed up was/is an utter and complete ASSHOLE.
The moral of this story is clear: in Canada no good deed - like calling a cab when you’re too drunk to drive - goes unpunished.
Darth Cheney On Trial?

If you didn’t know Nigeria has an anti-corruption agency, don’t feel like the Lone Ranger. It’s called the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and it’s eager to put Dick "Darth" Cheney on trial. I know what you’re thinking but you’re wrong. This bribery case predates Cheney’s VEEP days. It dates back to the time when Cheney was in charge of Halliburton.
While Cheney was at Halliburton's helm, a Halliburton subsidiary shelled out $180 million in bribes to land a $1.2 billion dollar Nigerian contract. If you’re into Halliburton stuff, you’ll remember that this matter was adjudicated in an American court, last year, and the verdict had Halliburton shelling out $579 in civil penalties. Despite the best efforts of his enemies, Dick Cheney was not implicated in the bribery. Game, set, match? Nope.
Nigeria still wants its pound of Dick Cheney’s flesh, so they plan to hand the matter over to Interpol, whom the Nigerians want to issue an alert for him. Is this the ignoble end for Dick Cheney? It’s too soon to tell, so stay tuned.
North Korean Fun & Games

In the waning days of November, North Korea wanted to flex its military muscles. Why? Because they can, but I suspect there’s more to it than that. The newly appointed successor to Kim Jong-il, Kim Jong-Basement Boy, needed some "I’m a badass Basement Boy" publicity.
Suitably motivated, North Korea rolled out its artillery and shelled a nearby South Korean island, Yeonpyeong. Two civilians, along with two South Korean marines were killed in the artillery barrage, prompting the usual suspects in South Korea, and in other countries to chide the North Koreans for killing civilians.
Were the North Koreans suitably contrite? Not exactly. Instead of an ‘oops, our bad’, North Korea condemned South Korea for using its citizens as ‘human shields’ to guard South Korean military positions. If you’re fuzzy on the North Korean definition of ‘human shield’, I’ve got it covered. It’s any South Korean civilian who is within the operational range of North Korea’s artillery, missiles, navy and/or air force.
Who knew that Kim Jong-Basement Boy inherited his daddy’s twisted sense of humor? Learn something new, every day.
