Sure enough, he ascended to heaven and as promised by Allah, he received a bounty of 72 virgins.

Always the emphasis on sex

Nothing in the Koran specifically states that the faithful are allotted 72 virgins apiece. For this elaboration we turn to the hadith, traditional sayings traced with varying degrees of credibility to Muhammad. Hadith number 2,562 in the collection known as the Sunan al-Tirmidhi says, “The least [reward] for the people of Heaven is 80,000 servants and 72 wives, over which stands a dome of pearls, aquamarine and ruby.”

See the bit about 80,000 servants
If 72 virgins makes you wonder just a little, what about 80,000 servants
What the fuck do you do with about 1/17th of the population of Auckland looking to you for their next meal ?
Certainly no time for screwing anything, let alone 72 of them – that’d be for sure

Thanks, Kea, but no go. That semi-literate wool-lover from Wainuiomata manages, so I thought I should be able to figure it out – nope 🙂

A keen fellow can always make room for another one Yvette! 🙂

I see what you’re getting at Yvette. It wouldn’t be long before the pearls, aquamarine and ruby were in hock down at the local pawn shop.

The weekly grocery buy at Pak & Save would be a shocker! 🙂

I wonder what is going to claim a scalp first – the Benghazi clusterfarc or the IRS madness? http://theulstermanreport.com/2013/05/21/boom-other-benghazi-shoe-to-drop-gunrunning-devastating-to-obama-and-hillary/

Funny thing, is while Hamilton / Dunedin have dialled up 400 million dollar debts, Tauranga which is smaller than hamilton has $460 million debt.

And, Tauranga didn’t even get a Stadium or racing cars.

Actually, I’m not totally sure how they blew 400 million — it certainly is not evident around the city. Looking run down and tired but lets face it people don’t come to tauranga to see tauranga — it is Mt Maunganui which is a lovely place.

IPCC Chief: Oklahoma tornado ‘can’t be related to manmade climate change… not possible. Scientifically… not valid’

Wow…. Rajendra Pachauri does have at least one honest bone in his body.

AFP reports:

Rajendra Pachauri, head of the UN-backed Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, said data was still coming in about Monday’s massive tornado which tore through a suburb of Oklahoma City, killing at least 24 people.

“Could there be better preparedness in general? Yes. What could better preparedness have been? Well it’s very difficult to say at this stage,” Pachauri told reporters in Geneva.

“But one really cannot relate an event of this nature to human-induced climate change. It’s just not possible. Scientifically, that’s not valid,” he said.

Kea, I humbly submit that you’ve made your point.

What point would that be, Rufus?

The tobacco-nazis try again: http://www.stuff.co.nz/dominion-post/news/wellington/8704283/Council-hears-proposal-to-ban-smoking

Courtenay Pl, Willis St and Lambton Quay could become the country’s first smokefree streets under a proposal submitted to Wellington City Council this morning.

The University of Otago’s Department of Public Health urged the council in an oral submission to its draft Annual Plan to implement a number of smoking bylaws. Such measures would support the government’s Smokefree 2025 goal.

Fuck these totalitarian bastards, I reckon.
