For once, I agree with Al Qaeda
I, too, have become excited to the point of immorality at the sight of conservatively dressed suburban moms shopping for cucumbers.

It gives a whole new depth of meaning to "Will you look at the tomatoes on that one!"
(Our enemies would be screamingly funny if they weren't so nauseatingly murderous.)

Gads! I hope these terrorists don't release fatwas against pear-shaped cats.

Reminds me of the great scene from Animal House (without Islamic coverings):
Eric 'Otter' Stratton: Mine's bigger. My cucumber. It's bigger. I think vegetables can be very sensuous, don't you?
Marion Wormer: No, vegetables are sensual. People are sensuous.
Eric 'Otter' Stratton: Right. Sensual. That's what I meant. My name's Eric Stratton. People call me Otter.
Marion Wormer: My name's Marion. People call me Mrs. Wormer.
Eric 'Otter' Stratton: Oh, we have a Dean Wormer at Faber.
Marion Wormer: How interesting. I have a husband named Dean Wormer at Faber. Still want to show me your cucumber?
What a classic movie. Nice grammar tip on sensual/sensuous as well.

For all the humor in this topic, one sentence stood out for me: "I saw them slaughter a nine-year old boy like a sheep because his family didn't pledge allegiance to them." I'm all in favor of ridiculing our enemies, but we should never forget how evil they are.

Most people don't really know. Army field intel types can tell stories that will curdle your blood.
Well... they *can't* tell you, but they could. Theoretically.
