When I was growing up on a farm in Iowa, the standard rule concerning edible livestock was that any critter that has a name is safe from becoming Sunday dinner.

My sister and I had a pet turkey named “Tom” (how original...hey, we were kids) that we raised from a ‘chick’ and he was imprinted with the image of us being his mom.

He followed us around constantly like a spare shadow and always came out to meet us, getting off the school bus each afternoon. He’d come out and fan out his feathers and strut around a bit. It was his main, possibly only, talent.

In early November, word leaked out to us that he was going to be the main course for Thanksgiving dinner. The old rule had been over-ridden and Tom was about to be “axed” literally.

Come the day before Thanksgiving, we all dreaded what was about to happen and nobody would volunteer to be his executioner. Just thinking about it spread through the family to where we were all nearly in tears.

Happy ending:

We couldn’t bear to kill Tom for dinner, so we ate the dog.

I would love someday to have an inquiry into what kind of heaven they are aiming for.

It's a whorehouse in the sky.

Seriously.

That's their highest aspiration.

A whorehouse in the sky.

Doesn't strike me as very spiritual...

72 females, with an even chance that at least 1/4 of them will be on the rag at any given time.
That ain’t heaven, thats HELL!!!

That wouldn't be so bad, 3/4 would be reasonable at any given time.

But in the real world they sync up.

ALL of them would have PMS AT THE SAME TIME!

That won’t stop another Boston Bombing or snipers or an idiot in a plane.

They want the virgins for dominance and torture, not for sex. If they’d wanted sex, they’d have asked for mature women with experience. Right out the gate, that’s the proof in the pudding.

Well, first off one should get the facts straight.

It’s 100 virgins. 72 Female, 28 Male.

And to answer your question, the Quran says that they will all STAY VIRGINS no matter how many times you ‘use’ them.

“ALL of them would have PMS AT THE SAME TIME!”

It’s become a handy excuse for women folks to act bitchy.
Seems like some women are having their monthly every other week!

My mom and wife both used to laugh at the women and girls complaining about PMS while they worked them into the ground. Neither one ever complained about PMS.
