Raqqa, Syria
Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant, also known as ISIS, announced today that he would be disbanding all forces and returning all land to Syria and Iraq. The move was prompted by the ongoing Climate Conference in Paris.
"This is one thing we could not have anticipated," Mr. al-Baghdadi said in prepared remarks. "When we see the world coming together like this on such a dangerous subject as Global Climate Change, we realize that our Caliphate will never survive. It's only a matter of time before Climate Change is no more and the world's attention turns to us. At that point, we will have no chance. For the sake of the men, women, and children who have supported us, I can not continue a doomed campaign."
An emotional al-Baghdadi did not take any questions.
Sources close to al-Baghdadi who spoke on the condition of anonymity told us that it was becoming more and more difficult to recruit new fighters. "Even our existing people are extremely demoralized," one said. "The words of Donald Trump himself can not overcome our dispair."
According to their press release, surrender is total and immediate. Fighters are being paid and sent home by division. Any remaining money will be put into a fund to resettle Christians and Yazidis who have been displaced by the war.
"We thought the world was fragmented," one strategist was overheard saying to himself. "Who knew it could come together like this? This is a stinging rebuke."
So far there has been no comment from Damascus, Baghdad, Moscow, or Washington. One source inside the Kremlin said, "We are waiting to see if there will be any follow-up action. We want to make sure this is real before we decide on our next steps."
Whenever you typso here, you need to ping Darksheare. Chances are good that he is lurking, thereby encouraging the Typso Bunneh to run rampant over your fingers.
Honest. ;o]
Yes, I would. But the ingredients will have to go at the bottom of the list, as there are other things that require my money on payday. When money is left over (not often) I get the things at the bottom. If there is no money left, I panic. Simple.
I’ve started to buy paper products at the Dollar Tree because they just cost too much at Walmart. Since it’s so hard for me to stand and do dishes, I use paper plates and plastic flatware. SUCH a good idea! Except for paper towels. I won’t substitute anything for Viva.
And I get as many supplements as I can there, but there aren’t many. Baby ASA and Ibuprofen and Vitamin C. But I use Emergen-C for my vitamins.

How beautiful!!!
Thanks, Norway! <3
Yes, I noted the kitty.. ;-)
1) Clippy was really annoying.
2)I'm glad that Moosie found a place in a spare bedroom to house him. Best be aware though that his presence tends to trivialize any and all meaningful conversation.
3) Clippy is living proof that Microsoft never obsoletes any of the code they have written, merely repackages it and shoves it back at you in another box. Even the bits from that piece of stellar enhancement known as Microsoft Bob*... ;-)
*Although if memory serves, in MS Bob, clippy was a dog. But I could be mistaken considering the passage of a nominal two decades... ;-)
They’re harmless.
Really.

Query: Which was it that said that? Sigfried or Roy?
Clippy has my vote!
Mine Too. :)
The only time I liked the wizard was when he made himself disappear in a mushroom cloud. Or something. ;o])
LOL!
Now THAT I really want to know since I grew up with horses for neighbors!
The rebuke, it stings....
You know the song...
Here's the visual. ;-)
Your post was good for the laugh of the day. I’m ashamed I know the content.
I remember the wizard and the cat. I forgotten about the dog.
Oh I forgot I once had a crush on him and his step brother Sean.
Loved his father in Colombo. He always played the villain.
Poor David did not age well.
Which gets your vote then ? :)
