Prose Before Hos Logo

anonymous_banker

I’m the travel editor here, well because I get around. And I like sex tourism, a volatile combo in anyone’s book. I’m currently en route from home, somewhere in New England, to my summer estate in the Rocky Mountains, and last night hunkered down in friendly Columbus, Ohio.

I know a little bit about Columbus from Ohio State’s massive amount of airtime during final athletic events showing off cheesy college commercials depicting black men in lab coats instead of football trousers or basketball shorts. Did anyone really figure they wore anything OTHER than lab coats and three piece suits?

Actually the good citizens of Columbus are well informed on this issue, and others surrounding the delicate matters of Race Relations in their fair town. Last night we rolled into the hotel, and were in bed watching Conan when we heard a loud crash from outside in the parking lot and our car alarm went nuts. After figuring out that the noise had come from our car, and inspecting the scene, I ascertained that there had been an attempted break-in on my vehicle, most likely to get grab the large quantity of Apple branded merch in the back. No iPhone.. yet, but a Cinema Display and a Powerbook were in abundance. (Note to self: Bring crap inside or at least put under a blanket.

Anyway, I scanned the scene and noticed two youths in long bright white t-shirts fleeing on foot. I will note that where I come from, anyone wearing oversized white t-shirts in the middle of the night is both black and up to no good, but in this case I was unable to make out the race or creed of the suspects. Anyway, I thought better of chasing them down the street because I mean what was I gonna do, so I called the police and made a report.

Fast forward an hour, when a surprisingly nice officer shows up and takes the report. I’ll qualify my commentary on his demeanor, given my other interactions with police usually end up in handcuffs. Anyway, it seems to be going well until I ask what he thinks happened. I figure it’s meth related, since that’s what’s up in middle America, but he thinks differently. He claims that black kids, like the ones I saw breaking into my car (which I neither saw in the act nor have any idea their color) are stealing the laptops and (the officer’s words) “Well… how should I put this? People of Middle Eastern descent, A-Rabs, they run computer shops around here and wipe off the hard drives and will resell them for profits.” He makes it clear that even here, in middle America, the terrorists have won. And have broken my goddamn car window.

They’re in cahoots with all the other petty crooks, drug dealers, and other scum, pulling the strings and using their global network of crime to buy suicide vests for their men and suicide burqas for their women. It’s a scary world out there, and if this isn’t definitive proof of the importance of bombing Iran, I really don’t think we’re going to find it. Especially not from the Bush admin.

PS. The reason this isn’t Race Relations 101 is because I still owe Alec a big fat mandigo post icon sad The Arabs Made Me Do It (or Race Relations 103) And because to properly understand the context for this amazing undercurrent of racial tensions in today’s US, you need to understand what it’s like to see your girl taking an 11 inch black cock in the ass.

Yakov Smirnoff does The Middle East

yakov Yakov Smirnoff does The Middle East

First I must apologize for my lack of quality posts lately; I’ve been nursing a botfly larva living in my back which I picked up during a recent trip to Costa Rica. Mine hasn’t emerged yet, but I’ve been researching what to do with this sucka. I’ve included a video below for everyone’s enjoyment. Is it just me or do we seem to have a strange obsession with tropical parasitic diseases here?

The real reason I’m checking in of course was because of the outrageous stuff contained in my damp copy of the Sunday Times that it seems was poorly covered in the “news-analysis”/blog community today. I’ll focus on the special in the Week in Review called The Guidebook for Taking a Life. This is of course highly relevant because in this day and age of “Islamo-terrorism”, many serious Islamic scholars contend that murder in the name of Islam is inconsistent with a number of ideals.

This article takes the other side and explores how those involved with suicide bombing, insurgent fighting, and the larger issue of Jihad actually justify their actions with respect to the Koran and the Islamic community. The piece is really interesting for a variety of reasons, it examines the following rules, which I’ll list below and allow you to review at your leisure:

  1. You can kill bystanders without feeling a lot of guilt.
  2. You can kill children, too, without needing to feel distress.
  3. Sometimes, you can single out civilians for killing; bankers are an example.
  4. You cannot kill in the country where you reside unless you were born there.
  5. You can lie or hide your religion if you do this for jihad.
  6. You may need to ask your parents for their consent.

By this point you must be wondering what Yakov Smirnoff has to do with this post, other than adorning it with his amazing jew-fro-ed mug up top. It turns out that a part of Rule No. 6 above is mentioning to your affiliation and intention to blow oneself up in the name of jihad to your wife after you’ve been married.

In Zarqa, Jordan, the 24-year-old Abu Ibrahim says he is waiting for another chance to be a jihadi after Syrian officials caught him in the fall heading to Iraq. He is taking the parental rule one step further, he said. His family is arranging for him to marry, and he feels obligated to disclose his jihad plans to any potential bride.

“I will inform my future wife of course about my plans, and I hope that, God willing, she might join me,” he said.

It turns out this isn’t so different from those hypothetical situations in America where you’re a member of a highly secretive government force like the CIA or other fictional force and you’ve got to wonder whether to disclose your affiliation to your spouse. Which makes it easy to reframe the whole mess in the form of a Yakov Smirnoff routine:

In America, Wife goes on the Crimson Jihad.
In Middle East, Couple gets married and Husband asks wife to join Crimson Jihad.

Diversity Day, part Deux

rajcatmc Diversity Day, part Deux

It seemed to me to be a fairly normal thing for TechCrunch, a major venture capital/technology blog powerhouse, to put on a conference this summer for hot startup companies. What didn’t make a whole lot of sense to me, was one member of their panel of experts. We know him as MC Hammer. Is there any possible reason why a cheesy rapper would be selected for a technology startup conference expert? Not only is he fairly useless to the conference- he’s probably the least black guy you could put up there… I mean other than Barack Obama.

10rent 600 Frozen BJ Face has returned to the real world with a job

Today’s article on the difficulty in finding living space faced by young people in NY who are not finance professionals was extremely exciting for me. For the simple matter that I’m glad the Frozen BJ Face from years ago has finally found gainful employment.

1643 Frozen BJ Face has returned to the real world with a job

Seriously, don’t NYT photographers take more than one shot before submitting to press?? Beyond the retard face on the right girl, the framing here is retarded. Am I turning into a photo snob or is the NYT really slacking here? Also, what’s the deal with Outward Bound stiffing these kids on real housing or enough money to find something? Aren’t outward bound trips like $10k each for a couple weeks at a time and filled with preps from Darien, CT?

Atheists: Get off of our country!

atheists Atheists: Get off of our country!

I received an anonymous tip from an acquaintance living on the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska in the form of the above clipping from the Kenai Peninsula Clarion, the region’s daily rag. I’ve done a little research into the area, and other than the occasional moose attack (which makes the front page of the news) it seems like a normal sort of area.

bears Atheists: Get off of our country!

Which makes me wonder which of the local heavy metal bands has taken the newspaper hostage. Not only have they printed one of the most misguided and inflammatory letters I’ve ever seen regarding the role of religion in our county, but they’ve omitted any sort of hints of what lies beyond in the title. I almost expect to see the word strong in italics or quotes. Reader voices “strong” opinion on atheists? It was probably Korupture or Tainted Sanity.

I understand this actually did garner some response letters for which I was too lazy to register to the Peninsula Clarion’s website to read, but the fact that this sort of hate-speech made it into the printed edition boggles the mind. There’s a reason radio stations have dump buttons (for people like Don Imus), but newspapers are different-. It’s as if the editor made up a likely sounding name from the remote town of Soldotna to further his twisted religious agenda.

It seems everyone here has dropped to the same level of intelligence, since the second letter seems to want to keep on fishing until all the ….. ? Till all the fish are gone?? Sounds like a wonderful plan. Because Jesus was a fisherman, right?

Full text of the letter:

“It’s time to stomp out atheists in America. The majority of Americans would love to see atheists kicked out of America. If you don’t believe in God, then get out of this country.

The United States is based on having freedom of religion, speech, etc., which means you can believe in God any way you want (Baptist, Catholic, Methodist, etc.), but you must believe.

I don’t recall freedom of religion meaning no religion. Our currency even says “In God We Trust.” So, to all the atheists in America: Get off of our country.

Atheists have caused ruin of this great nation by taking prayer out of our schools and being able to practice what can only be called evil. I don’t care if they have never committed a crime, atheists are the reason crime is rampant.”

Aw snaps kids! Jesus is back and he’s hipper than ever. He likes iPods, jeans, totally chilled out laid back attitudes, and guys that look queerer than Zach Braff:
