Zarqawi's radio adress last week included this line -(Translated by the terrorist mouthpiece jihadunspun)
"Do not be deceived by the vast number of the wrong-doers and do not be let down by the scarcity of the righteous."
It would seem terrorist recruiting isn't doing so well. Maybe someone worked out that all the really hot virgins have been used up, or they are all hanging out at "Pro-democracy" demonstrations in Lebanon!!!

I think the problem is they are offering the wrong kind of virgins.My buddy Sammy was talking to some former Northern Alliance troops in Afghanistan and asked if the older men ever took advantage of them. They said certainly but Sam was a little surprised they were so open about it and then one of them said
"There is even a saying about it.
For Children- A Woman
For Pleasure- A Boy
For Ecstacy- A Goat"
Sammy made him repeat it and they all agreed that yes this was the saying. So when I substitute 72 goats for 72 virgins, I am not being a smart ass, I'm simply trying to comply with the wishes of the dearly departed.
Cordially,

I watched an early screening of Kingdom of Heaven in January before heading over to Iraq, it did kick @$$

I'm looking forward to the movie Sean - the guy did Black Hawk Down, after all.
For those who haven't been to Iraq/Middle East, the reference is to the low quality pirated DVDs that are everywhere over there. (I bought National Treasure a day or so after it was released in theaters last Fall) The DVDs are usually made by a guy sitting in a theater filming with a camcorder.
