@djjd62,

Dizzy, the quintessential humanitarian hero, will surely take care of them bastards after he goes to Nigeria to offer up his body for ebola experiments to save the local population there, I figure.

Hey, Dizzy, do a poor boy a favor, will ya? I got a damn cousin who's been mooching offa me for a whole week now. I'm at the point where I'm about to blow his sorry head clean off, ya know? He wants to know if he can come lay around your crib for a good long spell, to save himself. Waddaya say!?

You and any of your relatives would have to pass examination by a veterinary surgeon, so it's not going to happen. We do have standards. Slouching proto hominids don't pass muster.

Given that all older women fear being replaced by a younger woman it is understandable however.

Mankind had not come up, at least yet, with any drug that could made you seem brilliant but fear not I hear they are working on it.

@BillRM,

That's a very parochial attitude based solely on your relationship with Doctor Moreau, (who is really taking the piss by the way.)

I don't need drugs to make me look brilliant, I've got a bunch of performing monkeys who do that.

I'll take that as a nice compliment, so I'll explain that I had a letter of intent to publish from a reputable architectural book publisher, but a bunch of stuff happened in my life one after the other and I let it go. Still have the few dozen specific place outlines I wrote for my ideas on Italy's piazzas from a lot of research and spending time in them - their histories, their part in the life flow of cities and towns.. well, I could write a book about not quite writing a book. Meantime, my photos are now rather dated, and the piazzas have changed in some surface ways, so it would take more trips, aka, biggish money.

Back to Paris..

Actually, Dyslexia, late A2K person, well loved here, did wear his Stetson in London. Someone there drew his picture, which Diane still has. Dys (Bob) was an actual cowboy in real life. People liked him, and he liked them.

@layman,

You should quit while you are ahead, and frankly it's a little late for that. You may have lost track of the topic, but most of us were talking about the terrorist attacks in Paris. You are ramping up your insults to a level I find disgusting. Nobody cares if you don't like some of the posters, but only a **** heel jumps to Nazi comparisons. I'm so disappointed with you, granted you can be a knot head, but these recent insults are beyond the pale.

@izzythepush,

Do you ever add anything but nasty invective to these threads?

The answer is a resounding "No"

OK, Darlin, whatever you say.

But wait, why are you listening? You've now told me many times how disgusting I am, and always say you are putting me on ignore.

What's up with that?

@glitterbag,

As far as the "topic" goes, it's my understanding that the overwhelming majority of the savage atrocities being commited by IS are against their "own" people.

Any fool who blames a western nation for that doesn't even understand the topic, I figure. A quote from WAY back:

Quote:

“Zarqawi favors butchering Shias, calling them "the most evil of mankind . . . the lurking snake, the crafty and malicious scorpion, the spying enemy, and the penetrating venom."

More from that 2004 article:

Quote:

Who Is Abu Zarqawi?

the terrorist who claims credit for the killing of the Jewish-American civilian [Nick Berg] is no walk-on, no lackey or even lieutenant of Osama bin Laden. Instead, he is an independent operator with a long history in global jihad -- sometimes coordinated with al Qaeda, sometimes not -- who may be challenging bin Laden for the leadership of global Sunni terrorism...

He masterminded not only Berg's murder but also the Madrid carnage on March 11, the bombardment of Shia worshippers in Iraq the same month, and the April 24 suicide attack on the port of Basra. But he is far from a newcomer to slaughter. Well before 9/11, he had already concocted a plot to kill Israeli and American tourists in Jordan. His label is on terrorist groups and attacks on four continents....

Returning to Jordan after the Soviet withdrawal, he may have joined the Egyptian Islamic Jihad, which merged with al Qaeda in 1998. While in Jordan he also associated with Hizb ut Tahrir, an angry, anti-Semitic conclave devoted to the restoration of Islamic rule. Released in 1997 after five years in a Jordanian prison for plotting to replace the monarchy with an Islamic state, Zarqawi fled to Europe....

In his camps, Zarqawi dispensed his specialized knowledge of chemical weapons and poisons to loyal followers, who then dispersed to the Middle East and Europe. The week of April 19, Jordanian police broke up a Zarqawi-financed and orchestrated plot they estimate would have detonated 20 tons of chemicals and released a cloud of poisonous gas into central Amman. The blast could have killed some 80,000 civilians and destroyed the U.S. embassy and Jordanian intelligence headquarters. In a videotaped confession shown on Jordanian TV, the head of the cell admitted, "I took explosives courses, poisons high level, then I pledged allegiance to Abu Musab al Zarqawi, to obey him without any questioning."

But though bin Laden and Zarqawi differ on strategy, Zarqawi too cloaks his plans for mass murder in the language of the religious zealot. To Zarqawi, "religion is more precious than anything and has priority over lives, wealth, and children." He considers Iraq ideal for jihad especially because "it is a stone's throw from the lands of the two Holy Precincts [Saudi Arabia] and the al Aqsa [mosque, in Jerusalem]. We know from God's religion that the true, decisive battle between infidelity and Islam is in this land [Greater Syria and its surroundings]. . . ."

I'll just never understand the utter lack of humanity that caused the USA and every other western nation to FORCE these poor, misunderstood muslims to kill each other, eh?

@layman,

I'll tell you Skippy, since you seem to have such a poor memory. I may have referred to you as disgusting, but I think what I really said was your idea of folksy talk was plucking my last nerve. I do have you on ignore, but saw all the traffic between you and another poster and curiosity got the best of me. Its always a mistake to revisit things by posters you have on ignore. It really wasn't a surprise to see you be disagreeable, but you sunk to a new low even compared to others I have on ignore.

If your mother didn't tell you what your hysteria says about you, that's too sad for words. I'm not your pal, and your overly familiar tone is wearing thin, it has always been like fingernails on a blackboard to hear a youngish man call women he doesn't know 'darlin'. Is there something about your Hick Shtick you think is 'charming'? It's not, it's mind numbingly boring.

Those of us who spent many, many years working for DOD and working on assignment with the Canadians and Brits, find your pathetic rejoinders personally insulting and degrading to our partners. You may not have an appreciation for what our allies do, but that simply means you are poorly informed. It's a mistake to think all Americans are as limited in scope as you are.

However, if you insist on acting the fool, live it up. Your not my son so no skin off my nose. But I assume you are an American, so on behalf of the rest of us, you should clean up your tiresome act.

I'm going to hit reply and then you will back in the attic where you won't get in my way. Cheers

Yeah, I think that word says it all, really, "disagreeable." Either AGREE or gtfo, that aint nuthin new. Not with extremely tolerant, enlightened, diversity-luvvin, and humanitarian commies, anyway.

And yet here you are, yakking up a storm. I dont pay attention to what women say, only what they do, most of the time. This is learned wisdom.
