Jordan: Release Our Pilot, or We'll Kill All ISIS Captives

This is how you call a spade a spade, and turn the tables on terrorists.

Take note WH...if terrorists insist upon living by the knife, we should accommodate them.

Isn't that the definition of tolerance, to 'walk' a mile in their sandals?

    It appears to be official: ISIS has beheaded their second Japanese prisoner.

    It also seems evident that the Jordanian pilot is no longer alive, since Jordan had agreed to ISIS's exchange demands days ago, but ISIS won't respond.

    There used to be a saying: "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me."

    The "me" in this quote, seems to be the entire non-Muslim world....

    I think this reward of 72 virgins awaiting them on the other side is a complete bunch of BS! Back in the late 60s I had a hard enough time just finding one!

    It might indeed, you puzzler you. It probably needs a theme(s) though. Context provides half the comic delivery, or are you thinking the comic does that?

    Wow. I forgot the part about paying to play. Omg. Lololol. No, no night vision visuals. I'd pay just to have the soundtrack. Thwap! "I hate this game!" THWAP! "Who talked me into this shit?" Thwap! "I'M WEARING MY DAD'S PANTS!"

    Hey, Lets... some buds and I once tried to play daytime golf despite a rainstorm moving in on us.
    Putting on a green where the ball displays a little 'rooster-tail' of water behind it as it rolls eventually made us 'relatively die-hards' give up after two or three holes, and we were pissed that the course monkeys wouldn't refund us Anything, either!

    But, no, your story makes for great story-telling and educational lessons for lots of folks who might otherwise think of the glory of such 'challenges.'

    I can't even imagine the 'glorious challenge' of football in a snowstorm! But it makes for great TV. Someone should have been recording your 'adventure'! Maybe with night-vision enhancement on the cameras! :)))))))))

    That big red "A" stands for Admired, Applauded, Accurate, Adorable, and Apropos. Wouldn't it be fun to make up a whole little comic book of analogies? I'll help. Analogies, metaphors, similes, paradigms, parallels are my big thing, too.

    Hey, I heard that somewhere!

    I have a caricature from by "friends" at my previous job. They called me "Analogy Man", with an accurate, but semi-unflattering illustration of me on a pile of books with a scarlet "A" on my chest...no connection to the Hawthorne book, but it is red.

    You're comparing football in the snow to midnight golf in the rain? I don't know..... having to wear my Dad's pants all night was more of a sport than what I attempted to do around that course. We could have been driving (pun!) around in circles and swinging at the same hole all night for all I know. I just cussed a lot and rather loudly. What did I care...I was never going to see these people again anyway. Heck..I didn't see them in the first place.

    In no way demonstrating support to BHO, I was thinking Bush and the disgusting worm, Cheney, screwed this up when they hut the head off the docile monster. Perhaps that should be equated with sweet Rachel and her girlfriend's campaign against DDT, not the subsequent negotiating incompetence of BHO.

    And when Rachel Carson was done, the mosquitos became a much larger threat to human life than DDT ever was (or was to birds, too...).

    BHO and Rachel might prefer 'negotiating with the roaches,' but that's not my inclination.

    So you've never watched a football (US type) where it's snowing on the teams? Sort of one of the definitions or defining characteristics of a "sport," sport!

    If they really had that in mind, I'm not sure it was a good idea. Controlling Saddam requires minor input, like controlling a pit bull. Controlling ISIS and Al Qaeda is like controlling mosquitoes or roaches.

    OMG, Pacific Heights, you had to remind me. I've owned some small apartment buildings over the years, sure glad that's over with. When I saw Pacific Heights the first time I actually threw up because I've experienced it. I still hate Michael Keaton today for his role in that movie. I had tenants destroy my units and take off in the middle of the night to avoid me. The law is totally on the side of the tenant, period. Many know exactly how long they can stay without paying then they just walk away before the sheriff comes. If you're a renter I will be suspicious of you, sorry. Actually I moved up to a much higher class of rentals in my final years in the NW, but still had one or two really bad tenants. One of the worst was the sister of one of our Seahawk's. He paid her rent a few times then apparently gave up on her himself. I still hold the court order that she owes me money, a useless piece of paper. I had to bring in an exterminator after she left to get rid of the bugs caused by all the dirt and garbage all over the apartment, food and cereal spilled in the cupboards and on the floors. Thanks for the reminder Rocky. Anyone considering owning an apartment building as a business sideline must see the movie first. Thank God, I survived.

    My dad once moved one of his tenants stuff to the street while she was out, and changed the locks. He had asked her to leave but she refused. My dad said she was from the Gestapo, marching back and forth every night in an upstairs unit. My dad lost other tenants down stairs due to her marching. He lucked out because she picked up her stuff from the street and left. He could have lost everything under the law. If you're considering becoming a landlord please contact me first.
