No, I don’t…and don’t call me Shirley. Can’t imagine why Muslims wouldn’t find the notion of having artillery shells fired at them from the turret of the New Testament gun anything but humorous. And before anyone cries “doctored photo,” look at the URL. That comes straight from the U.S. Marines website. Here is a link […]

“To begin, the trend toward larger and larger televisions will continue as screens double in size every 18 months. Televisions will eventually grow so large that families will be forced to watch TV from outside their homes, peering in through the window. Random wolf attacks will make viewing more dangerous.
