I just recently mentioned that there was a banner ad running that stated Osama Bin Laden would be releasing a new message and sure enough Al Qaeda release an audio message purporting to be from Bin Laden earlier today.

“”We will continue, God permitting, the fight against the Israelis and their allies … and will not give up a single inch of Palestine as long as there is one true Muslim on earth,” he said in the message, posted on an Islamist website on Friday. “This is evidence that Palestine is our land, and the Israelis are invaders and occupiers who should be fought,” he said referring to Israel’s 60th anniversary. “The participation of Western leaders with the Jews in this celebration confirms that the West backs this Jewish occupation of our land, and that they stand in the Israeli corner against us,” he said. “They proved this in practice by sending their forces to southern Lebanon.””

One commenter at The Global Times (the only one) asked the question:

Why is everyone so afraid of this Great lion sheikh Osama bin Laden? This man is hiding deep in a dark cave. Why do Bush and Cheney and the Great lion Sheikh Osama Bin Laden want everyone to be very afraid? Come on people use your common sense why are you taking orders from someone hiding deep inside a dark cave. What kind of drugs you people on?

Really that’s more than one question. The fact is we should be very afraid of Osama Bin Laden as well as the rest of the Islamic extremists until we have wiped them off the face of the earth. We are in the midst of a holy war and unless we are watchful they will hit us again.
The other question, about Bush and Cheney wanting everyone to be afraid is easy to answer. Government wants to control you and the greatest things that politicians like Bush, Cheney, Clinton and Obama want is to control as much of or lives as humanly possible. As long as we keep voting these guys in to power they are going to keep assuming it’s OK with us. Democrat and Republican alike they are all about big government and big spending.

Day off!

Woo hoo…

I actually get two days off in a row this week. Heck, that’s four days in four weeks. I’m not gonna know what to do with myself…

Actually I will probably be doing some cleaning of the house and yard tomorrow after hopefully sleeping in. Tmorrow, today, what the fuck ever.

I received in the mail that bottle of mead I ordered a few weeks back. I should have ordered more but I’ve been conserving money for the trip to Disney in two weeks.

I have drank most of the bottle and lightweight drunk that I am I have quite a nice buzz on.

I was going to save it for the party this weekend but decided to enjoy it myself because that’s what kind of guy I am. Joke you if you can’t take a fuck…

Party?

Oh yeah. The lovely wife and I will be married 20 years on May 28th. Normally we’d hit the ren fest the following weekend and maybe have a cookout and a party to celebrate, but we will be in Disney World that weekend and the 28th is on a workday for most people this year. NOT a good time to partake in your favorite drink.

Memorial Day weekend, the weekend prior to our Anniversary, is not a good time either. Lots of folks are out of town and I normally work very hard on holiday weekends because all of the jackasses need to get a waffle and eggs in their stomachs before they grill out. WTF?

So this Saturday is our celebration of 20 years of blissful joyful eventful marriage.

All of the above actually.

If you know me then you are invited. If not, well, perhaps you should send an email prior to showing up so that you don’t get skewered for being a dick head. There’s only room for one of us.

I had originally intended on spending the evening writing but I didn’t get home from work until ten and watched LOST until eleven, all the while enjoying this fine bottle of honey mead. Since there most likely won’t be any left by the time Saturday gets here you can find more at their web site.
