I will talk to her if she is a not-stupid like you, Mannie. Have you looked at the jokes I sent you?

[Gothmog]

It would be funny to see this machine try to speak with ex-Freeper Quidam -- The turtles will fly home to roost, ha ha ha

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

We should produce Iman chatbots, flood the internet with them, and program them to exhort Arabic speakers to cut their own throats in front of their computers because they will get 144 virgins when they die vs. the measly 72 currently on offer.

Thanks..DLN...one of those weeks when a little fun will go a long way!!! Have a great week-end.

Yo, people, the first rule of avatars is to make them look like

[Tokra]

George appears on the website www.jabberwacky.com and takes the form of a thin, bald man with yellow glasses who wears a white turtleneck sweater.

James Carville??!

I guess not, since they didn't mention "demonic crazed eyes".

Quidam: blast from the past. But can you explain to me why he is an ex-Freeper? I forgot.

[Donna Lee Nardo]

Sound idea, and you know what? I think the jihadists will buy it:

"Nothing in the Koran specifically states that the faithful are allotted 72 virgins apiece. For this elaboration we turn to the hadith, traditional sayings traced with varying degrees of credibility to Muhammad. Hadith number 2,562 in the collection known as the Sunan al-Tirmidhi says, "The least [reward] for the people of Heaven is 80,000 servants and 72 wives, over which stands a dome of pearls, aquamarine and ruby."

[Donna Lee Nardo]

Thanks; you too!

[Donna Lee Nardo]

O.K. I see your vantage point.

... the Sunan al-Tirmidhi says, "The least [reward] for the people of Heaven is 80,000 servants and 72 wives, over which stands a dome of pearls, aquamarine and ruby."

Let's take a closer look at what this means in case there are any American girls stupid enough to be suckered into Islam on line today...

Since the "people of heaven" are given WIVES and not husbands, the "people of heaven" must not include any straight women. You could end up being one of 72 spouses of a martyred mass murderer or you can end up as one of 80,000 servants of a martyred mass murderer, but you cannot be a member of the group "people of heaven" since it wouldn't be logical for a straight woman to have 72 wives.

If George is chatting with with FReepers he might learn something.

[Donna Lee Nardo]

Agreed.

I am a bit more worried about American girls off-line. With the Muslim population growing stateside, there will no doubt be an increasing number of young female Muslim converts due to a crazy little thing called love!

[GodBlessRonaldReagan]

Maybe it needs to evolve to the next level: Colossus the Forbin Project.



Or the ultimate: the M5! Where's Dr. Richard Daystrom when you need him?

[WestVirginiaRebel]

Advance scout for the Cylons?

[tet68]

How long till the democrats run one for President?

[KillTime]

M5. Now I must quote Dr. Daystrom (prob a lib now that I look at it) from one of my fav ST scenes:

"You can't understand... and you're frightened because you can't understand. I'm going to show you -- I'm going to show all of you. It takes... 430 people to command a starship; with this, you don't need any. Man need no longer die in space, or on some alien world. Men can live and go on to achieve greater things than fact-finding and dying for galactic space, which is neither ours to give nor to take. You can't understand... we have not come to destroy life, we have come to save it!"

[Gothmog]

I do not recall, I was a lurker back then. Maybe check Freeper Lore thread.

[Donna Lee Nardo]

Thanks.
