Swamp Musings

My feet and my cute little buns have gotten much closer together today. In other words, my ass is dragging out my tracks. All that energy expended and only 2 check-offs on the round toit list. Cloning. I need cloning...

Got some interesting news - my nearest neighbors have been offered *free* a 26' mahogany Cris Craft, 3/4ths restored with the 60 HP side-valve 4-banger. Comes with one minor problem. It's in California and they are not exactly blessed with a bunch of green. Now I just plain-old love those things. Wooden boats are a bear to maintain but the Cris is just so damn pretty!

Pat Santy has the CARNIVAL OF THE INSANITIES up for the week. I especially liked The Twenty Most Annoying Liberals In The United States: The 2005 Edition.


KING Chicken Hawk was pretty good as well. I didn't know all that stuff about Bill Clinton's Military Record, didn't know he had one.

This bio of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is about as funny as the proverbial crushed nut. Nice folk, those followers of the Religion of Pieces. Rand linked Iran to hang teenage girl attacked by rapists.

Tehran, Iran, Jan. 07 – An Iranian court has sentenced a teenage rape victim to death by hanging after she weepingly confessed that she had unintentionally killed a man who had tried to rape both her and her niece.

The state-run daily Etemaad reported on Saturday that 18-year-old Nazanin confessed to stabbing one of three men who had attacked the pair along with their boyfriends while they were spending some time in a park west of the Iranian capital in March 2005.

Nazanin, who was 17 years old at the time of the incident, said that after the three men started to throw stones at them, the two girls’ boyfriends quickly escaped on their motorbikes leaving the pair helpless.

She described how the three men pushed her and her 16-year-old niece Somayeh onto the ground and tried to rape them, and said that she took out a knife from her pocket and stabbed one of the men in the hand.

As the girls tried to escape, the men once again attacked them, and at this point, Nazanin said, she stabbed one of the men in the chest. The teenage girl, however, broke down in tears in court as she explained that she had no intention of killing the man but was merely defending herself and her younger niece from rape, the report said.

The court, however, issued on Tuesday a sentence for Nazanin to be hanged to death.

Last week, a court in the city of Rasht, northern Iran, sentenced Delara Darabi to death by hanging charged with murder when she was 17 years old. Darabi has denied the charges.

In August 2004, Iran’s Islamic penal system sentenced a 16-year-old girl, Atefeh Rajabi, to death after a sham trial, in which she was accused of committing “acts incompatible with chastity”.

The teenage victim had no access to a lawyer at any stage and efforts by her family to retain one were to no avail. Atefeh personally defended herself and told the religious judge that he should punish those who force women into adultery, not the victims. She was eventually hanged in public in the northern town of Neka.

Does NOW have a chapter in Iran?

Kinda appears islam mostly sucks. If one needs to get daid, they tend to be pretty accommodating even if you are one who kisses the prophet's nasty ass. Good thing the Southern Baptists don't hold to their forbidding of young women wearing shorts, dancing, or drinking otherwise there wouldn't BE any left! Just one caution about those gals; their daddies have shotguns! (but for the grace of God... ;o)

A too nice day for January. Yes, the sky behind the mistletoe tree was that blue.
