From Tourists Streaming into Syria from Lebanon, post 47:

To: cinives

You all might find this damn funny, but my sorry ass is marooned in Beirut, where I have been working for the IMF. If anybody has any helpful suggestions on how I can get out of this war zone, I would be most grateful. Right now, the road to Syria is the only way out of Lebanon for anyone, including U.S. citizens, and the Israelis are bombing that road. I am NOT happy with the Israelis right now. I understand their concerns about their kidnapped soldiers but bombing the Beirut Airport was not going to help them in any way.

Ohmigosh... I used to know a ton of "Newfie" jokes... now the only one I can remember is the most stupid:
Why don't newfies have Pizza!Pizza!?

Because they can't find 11 on their dial.

Since were here wasting time, if you were a flower (or bird, tree, etc), which type would you be?

I'd like to get my pilots license some day, the thought of carrying a concealed weapon during flight only sweetens the deal!

And to really convince them RY2, tell them about your trip to Mary-land in the U.S., pronounce it exactly that way, "Mary-Land", not the slurred U.S. version "Marilyn".

By the same token you must say Torrano, and not Toronto.

Good catch Mike.

LOL! Mighty expensive way to get a concealed permit, isn't it? :)

I forget the name of the flower. It is the one that blooms every 100 years and smells like an old fart . . .

He needs to say "sore-ree", instead of "sawr-ree" for 'sorry'.

Yes!

ROFLMAO!! I certainly wasn't expecting that!

As for a fruit, I heard that Dorian fruit literally smells & tastes like one. I guess thats what I'd choose.

If you're offered some DVDs to watch during your idle hours, DON'T pick "Bravo Two-zero." Something like "Mary Poppins" will be infinately better for you.
