Quotes of Unknown Origin

Silence of the Lambs; an older movie but a good one. It was playing this evening on cable and I decided to look up one of the phrases from the movie, "It rubs the lotion on its skin." I heard the phrase used in the movie "Joe Dirt" but I wasn't sure where they had gotten it. Then I saw it in Silence... I found out someone also did a song based on this saying. Interesting how these little quotes can make it around and you never quite know where they started.

Another one that I recently located the origin of was a quote by Alexander Pope. The quote was "Fools rush in where angels fear to tread." It was from one of his poetical works, An Essay on Criticism. I've heard it again and again but never knew the origin. Now I know and if you are reading this so do you. Do you care? Hmm.

Protesters Rampage in Pakistan

Protesters Rampage- What's with these fools? Fools. You are burning your own country. You are burning your own businesses. I guess it is true; people are sheep. They are manipulated and follow whoever is willing to get up there and lead them. The problem is, the ones who are getting up are crazy psychopaths who only want destruction. They don't really want an Islamic society. They want their version of an Islamic society. Wake up world. Think for yourselves.

My country is no better. What ever the media wants to make the big deal of the week is what we go after next. The media doesn't look for the best story, they look for the story that sells. We follow them like blind sheep, bleeting at whatever they want us to bleet at. Baaaa!

What's Worse than the Danish cartoons?

Man, They are upset at the Danes for a relatively tame cartoon series. They should see what else is out there. I've seen one site that actually depicts Mohammad as a prophet of Satan. The devil has the word Allah across its back. Interesting.

Muhammad Caricatures

What's this? The Muslim crazies are pissed again. Who are they going to assassinate this time? These people are not fit to live in the modern world. We have free speech in many parts of the world and if we want to depict your prophet in any light we chose, we will. Like the death threats against Salman Rushdie and the murder of Theo van Gogh, the latest threats against citizens of other countries is outrageous and intolerable. If you wonder why people depict Mohammad as a bomb toting crazy, you have yourselves to blame. Your acts of aggression against non -Muslims for their beliefs or supposed blasphemies are moronic. If what you do is right then any other group that is insulted by your religion has the right to harm Muslims. In other words, I might be offended by your religion's depiction of Jesus Christ as a mere prophet. Even if I were, I would not have the right to harm you for doing it. Get over it, get over yourselves and move on.
