I'm wondering if some of the tension in the Middle East could have been relieved over cocktails? Perhaps a brandy and coke or a martini would have averted this tragedy?

I hope I'm not being too presumptuous OR arrogant? Please feel free to continue pounding on me if I am.

Ever willing to be the whipping boy if it'll lighten the mood,

Well daf, they already have you down for an infidel and marked for death but if you want to play martyr, you could grab a nice bottle of scotch, a couple of glasses, shag on over to find Bin Laden and make your pitch for peace.

Of course, you could save some money and just take a 6 pack because it would produce the same results.

Yeah, maybe daf is right and those boys are just wrapped a little too tight.

Maybe what they really need to loosen up is potatoes and beer.


I like beer.
it makes me a jolly good fellow
I like beer.
it helps me unwind and
sometimes it makes me feel mellow

Whiskey's too rough,
champagne costs too much,
vodka puts my mouth in gear
This little refrain
should help me explain
as a matter of fact I like beer

My wife often frowns
when we're out on the town
And I'm wearing a suit and a tie
She's sipping vermouth
and she thinks I'm uncouth
When I yell as the waiter goes by

I LIKE BEER!

Last night I dreamed
that I passed from the scene
And I went to a place so sublime
Aw, the water was clear
and tasted like beer
Then they turned it all into wine

I like beer.
it makes me a jolly good fellow
I like beer.
it helps me unwind and
sometimes it makes me feel mellow

Whiskey's too rough,
champagne costs too much,
and vodka puts my mouth in gear

Aw, this little refrain
should help me explain
as a matter of fact
I LOVE BEER!

Right as usual Daf!


Show me the way
To the next whiskey bar
Oh, don't ask why
Oh, don't ask why

For if we don't find
The next whiskey bar
I tell you we must die

I tell you we must die
I tell you, I tell you
I tell you we must die

Oh, moon of Alabama
We now must say goodbye
We've lost our good old mama
And must have whiskey, oh, you now why

Of course peace talks could be more pleasent if everyone was a little tipsy. I personally think that the UN would be able to do a better job if the spirts where flowing. Besides, who wouldn't want to see the floor of the UN turned into one big sit in.

KUMBAYA ANYONE?

Peace Pipes!! That's what they need!! Peace Pipes for the United Nations and the entire Muslem world! We should send them some in shoe boxes, like we sent to the kids in Afghanastan (except those ones didn't have peace pipes in them)

Yeah. That would do it.

I smoke two joints in the morning
I smoke two joints at night,
I smoke two joints in the afternoon
and it makes me feel alright
smoke two joints in time of peace
into the time of war

smoke two joints before i smoke two joints
and then i smoke some more

Daf,
Don't know if you caught my post in Astral Realms on "How to choose a president"
It's somewhere along the lines of your creative question here. (I do believe peace can be simplified).
"Everything I ever needed to learn, I learned in kindergarden."
"Do not hit.
Share, and be nice."
I'm terribly sorry if your day is destroyed because I posted in the wrong format, really!
