The Frinch (A Dr. Seuss take on the riots)
Point Five blog ^ | a4g and The Evil Emperor Mindstation

Posted on 11/06/2005 6:25:35 PM PST by Crazieman

All the Youths down in Youth-ville hated Christians a lot. But the Frinch– who all lived in Paris, just north of Youth-ville– did not. Or, more precisely, they kept Christ at arm’s length Understanding completely France’s “secular strength.”

Now we call them all “Youths”, ’cause the papers won’t stress What makes them so violent– you’ll just have to guess.

So all the Frinch smoked and drank and lived without fear And they waited for government checks to appear And just when their faith had been completely diluted Three Moo-si-lem “Youths” got E-lectro-cuted.

“Why, they’re burning our streets!” all the Frinch said with a scream. “They’re ruining Utopia! Our socialist dream!”

France's only regret is that they have but one Asterix for their country.

Absolutely Hilarious!

This ping list is not author-specific for articles I'd like to share. Some for the perfect moral clarity, some for provocative thoughts; or simply interesting articles I'd hate to miss myself. (I don't have to agree with the author all 100% to feel the need to share an article.) I will try not to abuse the ping list and not to annoy you too much, but on some days there is more of the good stuff that is worthy of attention. You can see the list of articles I pinged to lately  on  my page.
You are welcome in or out, just freepmail me (and note which PING list you are talking about). Besides this one, I keep 2 separate PING lists for my favorite authors Victor Davis Hanson and Orson Scott Card.

The last paragraph is too close to a possible reality to be funny. Scary is more like it...

Very funny stuff! But there is that troubling undercurrent tickling at the back of the mind while you smile and chuckle your way through the piece.

You, sir, owe me a new keyboard for pinging me to this thread. And a new cup of coffee.

Definitely. Hilarious, sad and scary all in the same piece...
