Hey, this is dangerous stuff. I am sitting at my desk in the Board of Education office. If I laugh out loud everyone will want to know what I am reading, and Yoko is still very famous here in Japan.
Just last year she was in an ad campaign for Canon or Fuji Film or such.

That’s cute… expect for the fact Usamma bin Laden still works for the CIA and his and Bush’s family are still in buisness together after 30 years. The Al Queda network still works on behalf of the CIA via the Pakastani (the ISI – the folks that brought us the Taliban) and Isreali intelligence ( the Mossad – whose agents were found cheering as they watched the Twin towers burning and falling) doesn’t anybody remember the BCCI scandal?
If not get educated before you’re in prison wondering why?

I think some of our younger readers are not aware of the popular notion that Yoko broke up the Beattles. This cartoon is only funny if you have been immersed in the culture for long enough (or have hippy parents) to know of that meme.

My Imaginary Friends Think You're Funny
Brent….
Not what I meant at all….so cease the name calling dude.
What I meant was, from what I hear (seeing how I am too young to actually have lived thru it) YOKO broke up the Beatles….right?
So how I took the joke was this: US sent her to break up Al Queda…. right?
Which is why I said maybe it should be thought of by the Pres.
Isn’t that how the joke was meant? That should would break them up?
February 24, 2007 at 6:55 pm
My Imaginary Friends Think You're Funny
Sorry that she would break them up…..
thats what that sentence should have said.

My Imaginary Friends Think You're Funny
So I guess infact, you would be the jerk for jumping to conclusions and being so quick to call a woman out of name! Thanks for giving me a reason to remove this from my blogroll, as to avoid further name calling from someone who seems to have a lot of growing up to do.
As for the joke, and many of the others, it was funny and I loved it. Regardless of what my reasoning may have been behind the chuckle. Thanks for that!
(I didn’t know I was only able to laugh if it was for the same reasons the others laughed!)

In the great design of things you receive a B+ just for effort. Where you actually lost me ended up being in all the specifics. As it is said, details make or break the argument.. And it could not be much more true right here. Having said that, permit me tell you precisely what did do the job. The authoring can be pretty persuasive which is probably the reason why I am taking the effort to opine. I do not really make it a regular habit of doing that. Next, while I can easily see a leaps in reason you make, I am not necessarily confident of how you appear to unite the ideas that produce your final result. For right now I will, no doubt yield to your position but wish in the future you actually connect your dots much better.
