In related news...I scored 1000 rounds of .22 rimfire at Gander Mountain.
How will Obama celebrate?
Probably send out drones to kill a few innocent people. I bet he won’t spend any time fasting.
Think I’ll celebrate by eating a BBQ pork sammich.
Don’t they cook things in ramadans?
wonder if obama will give up golf for his ramadan observance.
I’ll have to have an extra serving of bacon then.
Yahoo! Bacon and eggs for breakfast, BLTs for lunch! That’s what I’m talking about!
Pork chop night!
this is important because _________ ?
I’m busy can you reschedule?
Algeria and Nigeria play in 2nd stage games next week at the WC, so we’re good........
Do they be shooting and killing and beheading on Ramadamadingdong?
The fast is supposed to be from food, liquids, tobacco and sex. So eat, drink, smoke ‘em if you got ‘em, and...you know...if you got ‘em.
Is that when Obama stops wearing his watch and “wedding” ring?
Sharia is unconstitutional.
