Social networking is getting tiresome, but I can't quite bring myself to stop taking part. I can hardly stand Facebook, but there I was, just a few minutes ago, making an inane observation about nothing in particular, to no one specific. Twitter is even worse. I subscribed to read the posts coming out of Iran during the 2009 protests, and couldn't even find them. I posted two items, then stopped. Last time I checked, there were about 20 people "following" me on Twitter, and I haven't posted anything of substance, ever. Apparently, no one goes to Myspace anymore. I'm not sure why, but that's what I hear, so I almost never check my page anymore. I wouldn't want to run afoul of the herd.

This "blog" (a word I hate, and for the record, I have opinions about many, many words) is not much better. I want to write about politics, law, religion, and other large topics. So far, it's just this and something about jihadists being virgins. And for this Al Gore invented the internet?

A post I made to Big Hollywood in response to Monday's Gregalogue by Greg Gutfeld:

I lived in a dorm my last year of college, and the majority of my neighbors were Muslim men in their twenties and thirties. To a man, they were almost all virgins...not that there's anything wrong with that. To the contrary, I now believe this is the proper way to live prior to marriage, however, it is not the experience of most non-Muslims I have known. I guess if you go that long without a woman, and your culture downgrades women to a lower caste, it must give rise to some bizarre fantasies. Maybe that's where the idea of a pornographic heaven comes from and why it has such appeal. Only men who are extremely sexually frustrated would be willing to forgo this life (and murder others) for a shot at porno heaven. As an aside, it is awfully strange to me that a deity who requires unfailing chastity amount its unmarried followers (if not the founding prophet) would reward murderous virgin jihadists with neverending group sex. Weird.
