#6 "Iâve got a fire in my belly," Corrie pronounces near the start of the show

"Now it's out. The belly, I mean."

#8 I found the acting a little flat and lifeless.

#9 Idiot activist's stupidity immortalized! Celebrate the mental shortcomings of our species where even the sickest and stupidist amongst us can be somebody's heroine! Did her parents get some Intifada Shaheed cash I wonder? How do they calculate the sum due with international exchange rates? Do you calculate from the moment of squashing or do you use the day some "cleric" in Bughtiburg nodded his approval? Maybe that money went to pay the attorney on the case against CAT since that one defintely wasn't being taken on a contingency basis! So many questions.

#11 "Five people to hang out with in eternity: Rainer Maria Rilke, Jesus, ee cummings, Gertrude Stein, Zelda Fitzgerald."

While I suspect Christ would forgive her -- its his thing, after all -- I wouldn't be surprised to hear the others beat the living shit out of her.

#13 First the play, then the song. Can history repeat itself?

Horst Wessel (b. September 9, 1907, Bielefeld, Germany -- d. February 23, 1930, Berlin, Germany) joined the Nazi party in in 1926. He was killed by political enemies in a fight in his rooms in Berlin. Glorified as a martyr to the Nazi cause, his song became the offical Nazi anthem. This was perhaps the most famous Nazi song of the war.

#14 Tied in with the Eastboune gig this week, this looks like an offensive. And we also have the postal vote scam from Birmingham/Manchester (musloids, ala Labour shite) and the voter intimidation in the East End. I think it's time for some serious profiling in the uk.

Remember? Rhodesia had a Terrorist war in the '70's and we folded through the fucking Western sanctions. And Zim is paradise now. Time to motivate.....WAKE UP

#15 the Cambridge ladies who live in furnished souls
are unbeautiful and have comfortable minds

Yeah, that sounds like Rachel doesn't it? Maybe ee cummings really would have beat the shit out of her.

You just gotta figure that Gertrude Stein would.

#18 In the saturation media age, totalitarian activists and other subversives know that they can benefit from replacing real history with historical fiction in public perception. How many millions, for example, mistake the background and setting of MASH for the actual Korean War? The lame defense that it's a work of fffiiicction just doesn't wash in the face of this transparently obvious intent.

The truth is out there, though, in the form of this suppressed photo taken just hours before Corrie's mysterious assassination:

Fast-food activist Rachel Corrie burns a rival company's menu during a pro-McDonald's demonstration in Gaza.

#22 Many thanks, .com.
It will indeed be up for a while, probably until the host bans me in the name of tolerance or I am assassinated by irate peace activists.

#23 LOL, AC! I was just wondering - I'll back you up if you need / want it, heh. The little IHOP label just does wonders for getting the message across... Heh.
