#1 Lebanon has no quarrel with the 400,000 Palestinian refugees who live in the country.

No quarrel, but a death match nonetheless.

"There were no survivors."

Cardiac related cockle-like objects undergoing positive thermal transition.

The official said soldiers with heavy machine guns blasted the two rubber dinghies on which the militants were attempting to escape.

Old terrorists never die, they just get blasted the fuck out of a rubber dinghy.

Heavy usually means a .50, one of Brown's sweetest inventions ever.

Had the chance to fire a .50 BAR (Browning Automatic Rifle) on a Unimog black powder safari to Bodie, Nevada and beyond. It is exceptionally difficult to convey the immense satisfaction of being able to perform major landscaping functions with the twitch of a trigger.

#2 *giggle* But will it plant the impatiens that have been gathering -- well, dust isn't really quite the right word -- waiting impatiently for me to plant them in the designated pots in my garden?

Nope, but it'll sure loosen the soil for ya!

#5 Channeling Ernie from Sesame Street:

"Rubber dinghy, youre the one,
We are fleeing and on the run,
Rubber Dinghy, were betting our lives on you
Bo-do-do de-do
Rubber Dinghy, youve got one flaw
You cant escape gravitys law
You take a round and down we go
Glub-glub-glub-de-o"

Thank me later for planting that earworm.....
