Are you having a Lewis Black moment?

I say, you simply must check out the Thomas Watson fellowship web site. It's smashing good fun to be paid $22,000 per year to traipse about on projects such as these:

*An Engineer’s Guide to Europe
*Environmental Impact of Mountaineering in Nepal, Switzerland, Peru, and Chile
*Traditional and Modern Architecture in Sub-Saharan Africa
* Life on the 10th Parallel: A Video
* Sex Tourism in Thailand
* Knowledge of Pollinators among Indigenous Peoples in Bolivia, Zimbabwe, and India
* The Making of Traditional Irish Pipes
* The Significance and Manufacture of Noodles from China to Italy

... and more!

Ah well, if the money's out there, who are we to mock those cheeky lads who take advantage of it?

Bin Laden and any other low life vermin that use terrorism to wage war deserve to be called "evil" at the very least.

How do you feel about UBL calling America "the great satan" ?

Worring about politically correct language is a waste of resources. Should President Bush refer to UBL as the "poor misguided youth" ? The dude is evil plain and simple.

Wait a minute..."Sex Tourism in Thailand?" 22 large per annum? (Sound of BtD slapping forehead.) Why, why, why did I write a thesis on old books?

[mountaineer]

Righto! Sex tourism or noodles, take your pick! Jolly good fun.

My good fellow, there are so many more creative projects available at the Thomas J. Watson Fellowship. One needs only be creative to apply for such projects as:

*Pay scale analysis the Hamburg Dens of Inequity.

*Gourmand explorations of Tokyo Sushi Restaurants.

*Mudpacking at the Bohemenian Bauhauses.

*Investigative Winetasting in the French Countryside.

*Skindive Explorations of the Fijian Coral Reefs.

*Comparitive Sand Studies of the beaches on the Italian Riviera.

I have to confess that I am quite taken with Mad Ivan. His forceful denunciation of the poor choicy one just thrills me. Of course, primitive american that I am, I do love dirty talk especially military dirty talk. Am I being judgemental about myself??? Or judgemental about Ivan?? I mean dirty talk is not that bad, nothing wrong with it atall.

#7. Thanks for the tip. Now it's all clear to me.

...philosophy that motives motivates him.

Come round to my place, madam, and I'll be happy to describe what I think the Gurkhas ought to do to the Evil One. Just a hint - it involves Khukuri knives, charcoal briquettes and a gallon of pig fat.

Oh Ivan, you do have a way with the ladies!!

Oh Ivan, you do have a way with the ladies!!

Oh I have a way, it's just the wrong one. ;)

Still at least I know what to do with terrorists. ;)
