D.C. isn't a state.

Neil Derryberry · 04-16-02, 01:35 PM

Geez, it's a joke.

MarkA · 04-16-02, 10:22 PM

As Rage mentioned, joke or not, DC isn't a state. And while most of them are either funny, or sadly true (the Nevada one and the Minnesota one in particular), I believe you should come up with a nicer Montana one

John Corn · 04-17-02, 05:55 AM

MarkA · 04-17-02, 06:21 PM

Here is a story and a pic of your pope kissing the Qu’ran.

Get out while you still have a chance.

Re: Referenced Picture

Actually, the Pope was only smelling the ancient tome of Islam. After taking a holy whiff, the Holy Father staggered back a little, and was heard to proclaim "Jesus, Achmed, this old book smells like Shi'ite!" (For those that don't speak Farsi, "Shi'ite", a common Arabic expletive, loosely translated means 'camel-dung'.)
