rabbit.jpgMany have referred to this nation as the land of opportunity, so in honor of that I’d like to thank the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) for posting another opportunity.

For those of you who tout that all religions are the same and all should be celebrated and included; you now have an opportunity to explain how the Islamic religion of this bunny, seen on a Palestine kids show, should be celebrated and included. Here’s a bit of the conversation between kindergarden age children and Assud the bunny:

Saraa Barhoum: “Of course, Assud. We will liberate Al-Aqsa from the filth of those Zionists.”

“I, Assud, Will Get Rid of the Jews, Allah Willing, and I Will Eat Them Up”

Saraa Barhoum [to girl in the audience]: “Is there anything you want to share with us?”

Girl: “Arnoub ['Rabbit']?”

Saraa Barhoum “His name is Assud ['Lion'].”

Girl: “How come you are called Assud, even though you look like a rabbit?”

Assud: “Because a rabbit is not good. He’s a coward. But I, Assud, will get rid of the Jews, Allah willing, and I will eat them up, Allah willing, right?”

Saraa Barhoum: “Allah willing.”

I have to admit that I might be sheltered, because my boys never come home from Sunday school having learned about “the filth of Zionists.” nor the eating those who don’t share our faith. They continually come home with love, self-sacrifice, and compassion; lame stuff like that.

So, with the sentiment that all religions are the same and should be included, I wonder if someone can point me at all the local places of worship, here in Whatcom County, that are preaching the killer rabbit doctrine or at least an equivalent message? I’d like to include them…..in an email to the FBI!

This poser came up in a conversation over the weekend. Which business model seems right for a  library system?

Sure there are a few details. But it all starts with which direction you point your camel.

After the 1st Ferndale police car went by we said it might be a J-walker, but after the 2nd car went by we said it was a felony J-walker they were after. Then the 6 year old asked what a J-walker was and we had nothing to say.

According to historian Peter D. Norton, the earliest known use of the word jaywalker in print was in the Chicago Tribune in 1909. The term’s dissemination was due in part to a deliberate effort by promoters of automobiles to redefine streets as places where pedestrians do not belong.[2] It is a compound word of the words jay and walk; in this context, jay is used in the obsolete slang sense, referring to a stupid or dull person, or a rube, i.e. someone from a rural area and not familiar with “city ways.” At the time, vehicles and traffic signals were a new concept, gaining popularity in the larger cities, so this term would have been used to describe newcomers who were unfamiliar with these recent developments and by extension, to ridicule people who behaved like newcomers but should have known better. wikipedia

Would that make us county folk “jays” because we don’t understand the ways of all you intelligent citified peeps from Bellingham?
