With War Ending, France Loathing Index Reduced

(2003-04-19) -- With hostilities in Iraq winding down, the U.S. State Department has officially lowered the France Loathing Index (FLI) to Disdain from Abhorrence. The FLI serves as a convenient reminder to U.S. citizens on the current state of Franco-American relations.

Secretary of State Colin Powell said the lower FLI level means, for example, that it's okay to order French toast in a restaurant, but still advisable to point to the item on the menu rather than request it aloud.

"The lower FLI is based on a dropoff of so-called 'chatter' about France," said Mr. Powell. "If this continues, Americans can look forward to another reduction to the 2001 level of Shun. Of course, every American gets nostalgic for the times when we didn't give France a thought. It was just one of dozens of countries where they don't talk right, and they eat disgusting things."

UPI---Helen Thomas stated today, "When asking Ari questions at the White House Press Conferences, you may have noticed a look on my face, as if I am, thinking REAL HARD. Sometimes I am, and sometimes it is something else, for THOSE times, I rely on Depends Undergarments (TM). If not for them, what would that handsome Terry Moran think of me?"

The Worlds First Blog...

These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.

These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.

And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.

And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.

And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.

And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.

And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God:

Revelation St.John
Respectfully Submitted

While the FLI appears to be dropping the CLI (Canadian Loathing Index) is on the rise and has reached Disgusted, with no end in sight.

Speaking of loathing, be sure and MISS, susan sarandon on CBS tonight. The story is about a woman who treats her own breast cancer while at the south pole. I'm sure the tramp will find a way to show her breasts. I may watch the beginning to find out the major sponsors, that way I know who to boycott.

BTW, did anyone else notice that Saturday Night Live had the Chixie Dicks on. I was flipping through channels when I saw NM, and paused to see the reaction from the audience, to my surprise they clapped. Then I realized it was taped, BEFORE, her comments. Wonder if NBC was trying to do a spin job for them?

Mmmmmmmmmmm.......Baaaacon.

Susan Serin- Done,

Your boycott worked. Mr. and Mr. Sarandon placed a pitifull last in the ratings. Tim Robbins (aka Mr. Sarandon)siad there is even a chillier wind coming....

Doesn't Sony own a chunk of NBC or they are affiliated or something? I am not sure. If they are it would be interesting to note that the Ditzy Chicks are on the Sony label. If I am wrong - then never mind...

...that CBS show with SureAmDumb had a "chill wind" about it......too cold to watch! IRONY: SureAmDumb in a "chill wind" in the SOUTH pole....or is it POLL....the tv ratings elude to "south poll"!

I had 2 options presented to me Sunday Night: Watch the SureAmDumb movie or listen to "Feelings and Killing Me Softly" play over and over and over again while scraping my teeth on a chalkboard. My teeth are all evenly filed down now (:~})

Lipton has shelved a commercial made for them by the Dixie Chicks. I guess all OUR free speech has made a difference.....

Please go to glennbeck.com to donate a dollar to fund the final RALLY FOR AMERICA.

Glenn Beck wants the final rally to be funded entirely by private citizens who support America and asks for individual donations of only $1 per person.

This is a great way to show every naysayer that America IS supported by its CITIZENS.

You can donate online or get the address to send your dollar bill.

I'll keep to viewing them with abhorrence, if it's all the same to you.

I know I've been told "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything." So ....

The French are still loathsome and vile creature ... explains why the Canadians have been taunting and booing American children, they have too many residents of French heritage. Maybe we can get Libya to do something about ridding the world of them while they chair the UN's Human Rights commission?
