News from yesterday

Some good, some sad.....

Let's get the sad news out of the way. Courtesy of Lee at Right Thinking, we've learned that a Jim Beam warehouse burned down yesterday. No jokes please.... it's too painfull.

However, on a rather nice note, we've found some unexpected support from the Middle East.

THE grandson of the late Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the cleric who launched an anti-American Islamic revolution in Iran that sparked 25 years of unrest in the Muslim world, has condemned his country’s clerical regime and suggested military intervention by the United States as a possible path to liberation.

Dominos, my friends. Just think of dominos.

Mr Khomeini - in Iraq on a religious pilgrimage to Shiite holy sites in Najaf, Karbala and Baghdad - also praised the US. takeover of Iraq, saying American forces were seen by Iraqis as liberators rather than occupiers.

"I see day-by-day that the country is on the path to improvement," he said. "I see that there’s security; that the people are happy; that they’ve been released from suffering."

Now if only the Dimmy Donk Nine would listen to him.
