^^Actually, that was also a first read for me. I thought the Americans were finding it tough?

Dinner with Julia:
PM Gillard takes Oakeshott, Windsor and Wilkie for a celebration dinner at a big fancy restaurant in Canberra. The waitress approached and asked "What would you like to order Ms. Gillard"? She replied, "I would like a nice Australian beef fillet steak please"
The waitress said, "Yes Ms. Gillard, what about the vegetables"?
She replied, "They can order whatever they like."

Perdon senora ... I forgot the G, and probably have the wrong order ... Wikipedia has just informed me that it is LGBT
[Deleted] 15 years ago
LGBTQ now...although I often omit the Q myself as I think it's kinda redundant. In case you're wondering the Q stands for queer. Which I guess covers pansexuals, but really that's just a subcategory of bisexuals in my opinion.
hornithologist 15 years ago
The Q is definitely redundant. I would argue that the L is too much. The G covers the L ... right?
[Deleted] 15 years ago
Yeah, I often just call myself gay rather than lesbian, but occasionally some people look at me funny and say with a confused look "but....your not a guy...right?" Also, some of the boys want their own label and so do some of the girls....so the L is there. But knowing the gay community, they'll change their mind next month and want something different...lol

Definition:
There is an annual contest at Texas A&M University calling for the most appropriate
definition of a contemporary term. This year's term was: "Political Correctness"
The winner wrote:
“Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority,
and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth
the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of shit by the clean end.”

The Queen and Julia Gillard PM:
At her meeting with Queen Elizabeth, Julie Gillard turned to the Queen and said:
As I'm the Prime Minister, I'm thinking of changing how my great country is referred to, and I'm thinking that it should be a Kingdom."
The Queen replied, "I'm sorry Ms. Gillard, but to be a Kingdom, you have to have a King in charge - and you're not a King."
Julia Gillard thought a while and then said: "How about a Principality then?"
To which the Queen replied, "Again, to be a Principality you have to be a Prince - and you're not a Prince."
Gillard thought long and hard and came up with "How about an Empire then?"
The Queen, getting a little annoyed by now, replied : "Sorry again, Ms Gillard, but to be an Empire you must have an Emperor in charge - and you are not an Emperor."
Before Gillard could utter another word, The Queen said: "I think you're doing quite nicely as a Country."

New Army Unit:
And the commander of the unit will be .......................... a Rear Admiral.
Details Of U.S. Army's First Openly Gay Unit Released
WASHINGTON (SR) - President Barack Obama has directed the Pentagon to replace the "don't ask, don't tell" policy with one that will allow openly gay men and women to serve in the military. Defense Secretary Robert Gates and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Mike Mullen, will present details of the plan to U.S. lawmakers next Tuesday According to sources inside the Pentagon, changes to be implemented include adding choreography to marching regimens, equipping all dorms with double-wide bunks, new fitted uniforms in seasonal color palettes, the installation of hot tubs, and more.
In a potentially controversial move, the Pentagon will announce the formation of a new all-gay, all male company named the "Fighting 69th Sodomites." Sources credit the creation of the 69th to House member Barney Frank, who has reportedly been working "very, very closely" with gay Pentagon officials.
THEIR MOTTO IS: NEVER LEAVE YOUR BUDDY'S BEHIND!
Rumor has it they will be stationed at Fort Dix..........

The Haircut:
One day a florist went to a barber for a haircut.
After the cut, he asked about his bill, and the barber replied, 'I cannot accept money from you Iâm doing community service this week.' The florist was pleased and left the shop.
When the barber went to open his shop the next morning, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen roses waiting for him at his door.
Later, a cop comes in for a haircut, and when he tries to pay his bill, the barber again replied, 'I cannot accept money from you , I'm doing community service this week.' The cop was happy and left the shop.
The next morning when the barber went to open up, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen donuts waiting for him at his door.
Then a Member of Parliament came in for a haircut, and when he went to pay his bill, the barber again replied, 'I can not accept money from you. I'm doing community service this week.' The MP was very happy and left the shop.
The next morning, when the barber went to open up, there were a dozen MPs lined up waiting for a free haircut.
And that, my friends, illustrates the fundamental difference between the citizens of our country and the politicians who manage it.
BOTH POLITICIANS AND NAPPIES NEED TO BE CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME REASON

Quality, not Quantity:
The commanding officer at the Russian military academy (the equivalent of a 4-star general in the U.S.) gave a lecture on Potential Problems and Military Strategy. At the end of the lecture, he asked if there were any questions.
An officer stood up and asked, "Will there be a third world war? And will Russia take part in it?"
The general answered both questions in the affirmative.
Another officer asked, "Who will be the enemy?"
The general replied, "All indications point to China."
Everyone in the audience was shocked. A third officer remarked, "General, we are a nation of only 150 million, compared to the 1.5 billion Chinese. Can we win at all, or even survive?"
The general answered, "Just think about this for a moment: In modern warfare, it is not the quantity of soldiers that matters but the quality of an army's capabilities. For example, in the Middle East we have had a few wars recently where 5 million Jews fought against 150 million Arabs, and Israel was always victorious."
After a small pause, yet another officer - from the back of the auditorium asked, "Do we have enough Jews?"

A Reminder in History:
WE NO LONGER TAKE THE TIME TO KNOW OUR ENEMY, HOWEVER, FOR A LONG TIME OUR ENEMIES HAVE TAKEN THE TIME TO KNOW US!!
THIS SAME TACTIC IS BEING APPLIED TODAY IN AFGHANISTAN AND THE REST OF THE MUSLIM AND ASIATIC AREA!!!!!
General Vo Nguyen Giap.
General Giap was a brilliant, highly respected leader of the North Vietnam military.
The following quote is from his memoirs currently found in the Vietnam war memorial in Hanoi :
'What we still don't understand is why you Americans stopped the bombing of Hanoi .
You had us on the ropes. If you had pressed us a little harder, just for another day or two, we were ready to surrender!
It was the same at the battle of TET. You defeated us!
We knew it, and we thought you knew it.
But we were elated to notice your media was helping us.
They were causing more disruption in America than we could in the battlefields.
We were ready to surrender. You had won!'
General Giap has published his memoirs and confirmed what most Americans knew. The Vietnam war was not lost in Vietnam -- it was lost at home.
The same slippery slope, sponsored by the US media, is currently underway. It exposes the enormous power of a Biased Media to cut out the heart and will of the American public.
A truism worthy of note: ... Do not fear the enemy, for they can take only your life. Fear the media, for they will destroy your honor

When bread was too pricey to eat,
Egyptians rebelled in the street;
Now others may hoard,
As they cannot afford
The true cost of the high price of wheat.
