Endangered Species: Saudi Virgins

A high religious council in Saudi Arabia has issued a report which claims that relaxing the country's law and allowing women to drive will inevitably lead to "no more virgins", and there will be a surge in prostitution, pornography, and homosexuality.

Three thoughts:

1. What does my favorite Saudi Cleric say about this? He had previously stated that women can drive.
2. If true, this is somewhat good news considering the eventual demise of blondes.
3. What if they let women drive in America, we could be overrun by prostitution, pornography, and homosexuality. We could become like France!
   

Reflections on Personal Limitations and Desires

I admire people who do not hesitate to point out their limitations, and are not afraid to tell you what they like.

Get A Good Screw Here Without Going There

Sometimes you see a place with Chicago Pizza in its name, but you are far away from Chicago. Or Texas BBQ, or Philadelphia Cheesesteak but you are not in TX or Philly.

Yet still you are comforted by the idea that you don't have to go all the way there to get a taste of the good stuff for which that place is well known.

Yet another place of business from which I was forcibly ejected by security.

Being not too near Tacoma but intrigued with the prospect of getting a good taste of the best Tacoma has to offer, I had to pull off the freeway.

I was very disappointed after my Everett fiasco but thought this was going to be different.

As I was being escorted off the property by security, I was in disbelief when management made the claim that never had anyone exited the highway and entered their premises in search of whores.

50 Beautiful And 3 Ugly Ones

Clever sign to sell mobile phones makes a reference to popular tagline of a well known chain of strip clu... gentlemen's clubs. I'll take one of the ugly ones.

I've only seen the sign from the road.

Where To Get A Bone & Joint In This Town

Driving around in Everett late at night, I was excited to see the sign for a place which offered exactly what you want to discover in a place like Everett late at night.

Another place of business from which I was forcibly ejected by security.

Needless to say I was quite disappointed to learn that this was not a place where I could get the two things that the sign suggests.

As I was being escorted out, I found hard to believe their assertion that nobody else had ever come in expecting services involving drugs and whores.

Halloween: Sexy Time Of Cleaning And Damnation

Halloween is upon us. According to some, it is an evil occasion that must be avoided. Judging from the popularity of these French maid costumes at the Halloween costume store, this is probably a good time of the year to do some cleaning around the house.


and perhaps do some cleansing of the soul by way of prayer...

These nuns are like nun other.

I wonder what Sheikh Abdul Mohsin Al-Obaikan would say about this. I also wonder, why do all those people who went to Catholic school complain about nuns who spanked them?

It may be a time of evil, or a time of cleaning, or prayer. That is up to the individual to decide. But certainly this will be a time to celebrate Gamblin', Liquor, and Whores for all.

Your Prayers May Be Rendered Invalid

After receiving a warning from beyond, I decided to observe the fast for the entire month of Ramadan. The month of fasting is followed by a communal Eid al-Fitr prayer service, followed by uncontrolled eating.

This year, several area mosque organizations arranged for a joint gathering and rented out the exhibition center for a crowd of what looked like several thousand believers, with a few doubtfuls mixed in.

Perhaps I need to consult with my favorite Saudi cleric to be certain, but I suspect that the prayers of thousands may have been rendered invalid by the banner of a liquor-sipping barelegged seductress in a house of games-of-chance in clear sight. In other words, Gamblin', Liquor, and Whores.

Gamblin', Liquor, and Whores. And SEO

As a software engineer working mostly on the web, I have had to deal with the black magic art of SEO. But few people know my true love is the arts that include literature, music, and cinema.

So it was a pleasant confluence of concerns when I found out that I have fine-tuned the SEO value of the term Gamblin', Liquor, and Whores -- which I intend to make the name of my first yet-to-be-released album of the best music you will have ever heard -- as a way to find this very blog.

I suppose I can now also put SEO Expert on my software engineering resume.

Reflections on Humanity, Economics, and Whores

While I appreciate honesty on the part of people who ask something of me, I do not think "Why lie, I need beer" or "Need cash for weed" merit my donation. Sorry, I can't support your bad habit. Unless...

This guy went for the unexpected. He also got points for politeness ("please"). I gave him a dollar for the privilege of taking his photo. Later I pondered that if he got someone to donate the full amount, he would have to sacrifice on quality in one of the two items he is requesting. (If I'm wrong about that, I would be interested in further information.)

Saudi Cleric: Islam Permits Women to Drive

Sheikh Abdul Mohsin Al-Obaikan, my favorite Saudi cleric, points out that Islamic law does not prohibit women driving. Still waiting for the sheikh's approval on the big/best three vices: Gamblin', Liquor, and Whores (also the title of my yet-to-be released first album).
