Here are our three best comments.  What are yours?

1) Why the life preserver? You can’t get that much yellow mass below the water line if you dropped it from the space shuttle.
2) Yamaha needs to get this in their brochures as part of the "quality assurance" program.
3) Would you not kill to see him try and get back on once he falls off?

Guy Takes Golf Ball to Stomach »

There are just so many things that can go wrong here. At first I wondered if he was at least wearing a cup. But, as my good friend said,  I think in the long-term, the lack of a cup is just another form of natural selection, God’s way of pruning the tree of life for the betterment of our daughters…..

We Support ANWR - Do You? »

First… do you know what ANWR is?  ANWR = arctic national wildlife refuge.  We recieved this email, did a little research and decided to post it.  We put it on Just Stupid because we want to get people’s attention that not becoming independent of Middle East oil IS just stupid!  You can download this presentation as a PDF here.

20080627ANWR1

And some perspective…

20080627ANWR2

Note where the proposed development area is…

(It’s in the "ANWR coastal plain")

20080627ANWR3

This is what the objectors show you when they talk about ANWR

…And they are right… these are photographs of ANWR

20080627ANWR4 20080627ANWR5 20080627ANWR6

Isn’t ANWR beautiful?  Why should we drill here (and destroy) this beautiful place?

Well… that’s not exactly the truth. Do you remember the map? The map showed that the proposed drilling area is in the ANWR coastal plain.

Do those photographs look like a coastal plain to you? What’s going on here? The answer is simple…

That is not where they are wanting to drill! This is what the proposed exploration area actually looks like in the winter.

And this is what it actually looks like in the summer

20080627ANWR8 20080627ANWR9 20080627ANWR10

Here are a couple screen shots from Google earth.

20080627ANWR11

20080627ANWR12

As you can see, the area where they are talking about drilling is a barren wasteland.

Oh… and they say that they are concerned about the effect on the local wildlife…

Here is a photo (shot during the summer) of the "depleted wildlife" situation created by drilling around Prudhoe Bay*… don’t you think that the caribou really hate that drilling?

20080627ANWR13

Here’s that same spot during the winter.

20080627ANWR14

Hey, this bear seems to really hate the pipeline near Prudhoe Bay*…

20080627ANWR15

*The Prudhoe Bay area accounts for 17% of U.S. domestic oil production

Now that you know the truth, what are you going to do about it?

 

You can start by forwarding this to everyone you know… so that they will know the truth.  And consider supporting ANWR.ORG.

A Wake Up Call To America (and others) »

Tomorrow is Independance Day in America and there is nothing stupid about that.  But if we want to keep our independence we need to wake up and see what is happening in the world!

Islam - More Than A Religious Cult 

Islam is not a religion, nor is it a cult. In its completed, intended form, it is an all encompassing system of life. Originally conceived by an illiterate thief, his followers plagiarized the religious and theological works of the time to establish a political opposition to the societies in the Mid-East of the sixth century. Dominated by primarily European and Asian influences, the nomadic Arabic peoples were drawn to the political organization which offered them economic opportunity to be gained by the force of arms. Islam has legal, political, economic, social, and military components. The religious component is a camouflaging capsule for all of its other entities.

Islamization of a society begins when there are sufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for discriminatory religious privileges. When politically correct, tolerant, and culturally diverse societies agree to Muslim demands for their religious privileges, some of the other manifestations tend to infiltrate, eroding and contaminating the culture.

Here’s how history validates the progression:

As long as the Muslim population remains around or under 2% in any given country, they will be for the most part be regarded as a peace-loving minority, and not as a threat to other citizens. This is the case in:

United States — Muslim 0.6%
Australia — Muslim 1.5%
Canada — Muslim 1.9%
China — Muslim 1.8%
Italy — Muslim 1.5%
Norway — Muslim 1.8%

At 2% to 5%, they begin to proselytize among other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs. This is happening in:

Denmark — Muslim 2%
Germany — Muslim 3.7%
United Kingdom — Muslim 2.7%
Spain — Muslim 4%
Thailand — Muslim 4.6%

From 5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. For example, they will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves - along with threats for failure to comply.

At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish Sharia law over the entire world. This is occurring in:

France — Muslim 8%
Philippines — Muslim 5%
Sweden — Muslim 5%
Switzerland — Muslim 4.3%
The Netherlands — Muslim 5.5%
Trinidad & Tobago — Muslim 5.8%

When Moslems approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions.  In Paris , we are already seeing car-burnings. Any non-Muslim action offends Islam, and results in uprisings and threats, such as in Amsterdam , with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films about Islam. Such tensions are seen daily, particularly in Muslim sections, in:

Guyana — Muslim 10%
India — Muslim 13.4%
Israel — Muslim 16%
Kenya — Muslim 10%
Russia — Muslim 15%

After reaching 20%, nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues, such as in:

Ethiopia — Muslim 32.8%

At 40%, nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare, such as in:

Bosnia — Muslim 40%
Chad — Muslim 53.1%
Lebanon — Muslim 59.7%

From 60%, nations experience unfettered persecution of non-believers of all other religions (including non-conforming (Muslims), sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia law as a weapon, and Jizya, the tax placed on infidels, such as in:

Albania — Muslim 70%
Malaysia — Muslim 60.4%
Qatar — Muslim 77.5%
Sudan — Muslim 70%

After 80%, there is daily intimidation and violent jihad, some state-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as
these nations drive out the infidels, and move toward 100% Islam. This has been experienced and is on-going in:

Bangladesh — Muslim 83%
Egypt — Muslim 90%
Gaza — Muslim 98.7%
Indonesia — Muslim 86.1%
Iran — Muslim 98%
Iraq — Muslim 97%
Jordan — Muslim 92%
Morocco — Muslim 98.7%
Pakistan — Muslim 97%
Palestine — Muslim 99%
Syria — Muslim 90%
Tajikistan — Muslim 90%
Turkey — Muslim 99.8%
United Arab Emirates — Muslim 96%

100% supposedly ushers in the peace of ‘Dar-es-Salaam’ - the Islamic House of Peace. There is supposed to be peace, because everybody is a Muslim, the madrasses are the only schools, and the Koran is the only word, such as in:

Afghanistan — Muslim 100%
Saudi Arabia — Muslim 100%
Somalia — Muslim 100%
Yemen — Muslim 100%

Unfortunately, peace is never achieved! As in the 100% states above, the most radical Muslims intimidate, spew hatred, violate women and children, and satisfy their blood lust by killing less radical Muslims, using rationalizations and corruptions of every basic human decency. Whether in mutilating women or raping young boys, they invoke the name of religion for authority. One only need to recall the killing of innocent female children in Saudi Arabia by religious police, or the atrocities of the Taliban in order to realize that we are in a war where our enemies do not fight by the rules governing civilized nations.

In some countries with relatively small minority Moslem populations, such as France (8%), these minority Moslem populations live in ghettos. Within these 100% Islamic communities, they live by Sharia law. Police do not even enter these ghettos. There are no national courts holding them accountable to the societies they seek to change to their false and corrupt ideologies. Schools are Islamic, and their are no non-Muslim religious facilities. In these enclaves of injustice and religious totalitarianism, Muslims do not integrate into the community at large. Their is absolutely no intention to assimilate into the cultures that afforded them economic opportunities not to be found when Islamic theocracies rule. The children attend madrasses. They learn only the Koran, and the evil of Islam. To even associate with an infidel is a crime punishable with death. In some areas of certain nations, such as Iran, Imams and extremists exercise more power than the majority.

Today’s 1.5 billion Muslims make up 22% of the world’s population. Because their birth rates dwarf the birth rates of Christians, Hindus, Buddists, Jews, and all other believers, Muslims will exceed 50% of the world’s population by the end of this century. Clearly, able only to dominate by injustice and force, the potential for these purveyors of evil to overcome democracies is real unless it is resisted by citizens loyal to an absolute of law embraced by the men and women who gave birth to this "one Nation, under God, . . . dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal".  From The Attack on America, "tolerance is the enemy of justice", and righteous people everywhere must be intolerant of injustice, regardless of religious or political trappings. Freedom is never free!

In closing we want to add these facts which are very relevant to the expansion of Islam in Africa:

A presidential candidate’s cousin, Raila Odinga continues to fuel the first, mass, widespread violence in Kenya in years, attempting to overturn a legitimate election in 2007. Kenya’s current government is pro-American, but Odinga wants to overthrow it and establish Islamic Sharia law. Obama’s half-brother, Abongo Obama, is Odinga’s follower. It is a matter of public record that Obama interrupted his New Hampshire campaigning to speak to Odinga on the phone. When Odinga lost the elections, his followers burned Christians’ homes, and then burned men, women and children alive in a Christian church where they took shelter. Obama had supported his cousin even before the failed election attempt.

Kristoff, from the New York Times, a year ago, reported that Obama recalled the opening lines of the Islamic call to prayer, reciting them with a very good native accent. In a remark that seemed spontaneous, Obama described the call to prayer as "one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset."

The final straw, contrary to Washington’s warning against "foreign alliances" comes with Obama’s sponsorship of Senate bill S.2433, which could, according to some conservative sources, eventually force U.S. taxpayers to fork over as much as 0.7 percent of our nation’s GDP, or $845,000,000,000.00 in welfare to third-world countries.

The statistics included above adapted from Dr. Peter Hammond’s book, Slavery, Terrorism and Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat

India Plane Soars Past Destination as Pilots Doze »

Air India planes at Mumbai airport. An Air India flight headed for Mumbai overshot its destination and was halfway to Goa before its dozing pilots were woken out of a deep slumber by air traffic control.(AFP/Indranil Mukherjee)NEW DELHI (AFP) - An Air India flight headed for Mumbai overshot its destination and was halfway to Goa before its dozing pilots were woken out of a deep slumber by air traffic control, a report said.

The high altitude nap took place approximately two weeks ago, the Times of India reported Thursday. The report, however, drew a furious denial from Air India.

Some 100 passengers were on board the state-run flight that originated from Dubai and flew to the western Indian city of Jaipur before heading south to Mumbai when both pilots fell asleep, a source told the paper.

"After operating an overnight flight, fatigue levels peak — and so the pilots dozed off after taking off from Jaipur," the source, who was not identified in the report, said.

The plane flew to Mumbai on autopilot, but when air traffic there tried to help the aircraft land, the plane ignored their instructions and carried on at full speed towards Goa.

"It was only after the aircraft reached Mumbai airspace that air traffic control realised it was not responding to any instructions and was carrying on its own course," the source said.

"The aircraft should have begun its descent about 100 miles (160 kilometres) from Mumbai, but here it was still at cruising altitude. We checked for hijack."

Finally air traffic control buzzed the cockpit and woke up the pilots, who turned the plane around, the report said.

Air India on Thursday said a plane had overshot its Mumbai destination on June 4 but furiously denied it was because the pilots were sleeping, putting the glitch down to a brief communications breakdown.

"The report is absolutely incorrect, devoid of facts, misleading and irresponsible. It is a figment of imagination," Air India spokesman Jitender Bhargava told AFP by telephone from Mumbai.

"We have gone through the flight reports of the last 30 days. A plane did cross Mumbai for 15 kilometres because it had lost contact for a few moments. At those speeds 15 kilometres is covered in a very short time."

The plane quickly established contact with air traffic control and landed a short while later, he said.

Bhargava accused the Times of India, one of the country’s biggest papers, of "batting for somebody." The daily has said in its report that authorities were trying to hush up the incident.

Indian papers also reported this week that a flight operated by private airline Jetlite to the central Indian city of Patna was grounded after the pilot was allegedly found to be drunk.
