I’m not one to criticize other people’s religious wardrobe choices. I mean, if nuns want to dress up like penguins (or wear a sea gull hat like Sister Bertrille), it’s OK by me. And if the pope wants to wear a turkey’s ass hat (or a red yarmulke on “casual” days), it’s no skin off my nose (I think the outfits are a little flamboyant, personally, but what do you expect from a bunch of single guys living together). Hey, whatever floats your boat. But there are<\/em><\/strong> some drawbacks to dating a chick wearing a beekeeper suit. Namely, that her family might just pull the old bait and switch<\/a>, and show you pictures of her good-looking sister.<\/p>\n

An Arab ambassador in Dubai has had his marriage annulled after discovering that his bride, behind her veil, was bearded and cross-eyed.<\/p>\n

The couple had only met a few times during their courtship. Each of these times the woman had worn a niqab, an Islamic veil that covers most of the face.<\/p>\n

After the marriage contract was signed in Dubai, the ambassador tried to kiss his new wife. However, as he removed the veil, he was shocked at what he saw.<\/p>\n

“He was absolutely horrified,” a guest said. “The bride had a nice personality, but there was a good reason why she was hiding her looks behind a veil.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"bride\"Yeah, well, that’ll happen. They really should have given the guy a chance to get used to her first. Cross-eyes are one thing (might make you a bit paranoid, wondering what the hell she’s looking at all the time; “what, is somebody sneaking up behind me?”). But the time to find out your wife’s got a beard isn’t when you go to give her that first smooch. Some things you just gotta ease your way in to. <\/p>\n

And, hey, dude, there might be one or two other things under that veil you wanna get a look at before you get hitched, too. You think a beard<\/em><\/strong> is a shocker…? <\/p>\n

Just sayin’. <\/p>\n

Speaking of stating the obvious (like, at least take a quick look under the hood before you buy a car), it also should<\/em><\/strong> go without saying that if you’re a fugitive from the law, maybe you shouldn’t be quite so diligent in updating your Facebook page<\/a>.<\/p>\n

U.S. marshals captured a Lockport man Wednesday in Terre Haute, Ind., after Lockport Police learned his whereabouts via his Facebook and MySpace pages.

\nChristopher Crego…was wanted for second- and third-degree assault charges…and fled the state just before his sentencing date last fall, police said.<\/p>\n

Less than a year later, Lockport police charged Crego again with driving while intoxicated and unlawful possession of marijuana….<\/p>\n

Podgers said through Crego\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Facebook and MySpace pages, police were able to find him.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153He had all of his information right online,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Podgers said. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153He even wrote one time that police were never going to catch him.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d
\n[…]
\nLockport police posted a thank-you note on Crego\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Facebook page that read, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153It was due to your diligence in keeping us informed that now you are under arrest.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I know what you’re thinkin’. You’re thinkin’, here it is, like 8-9 years since 9\/11, and no new pictures. Well, it’s your lucky day, ‘cuz ABC News filed a FOIA request to get aerial photos taken from police helicopters released<\/a>. Now, why these photos would be a freakin’ secret is beyond me. What, they didn’t think we could take it? <\/p>\n

No doubt these photos will conclusively and scientifically prove that 9\/11 was an inside job because steel doesn’t melt in a fire (all those old movies with blacksmiths aside; those were faked by the Illuminati, who are all powerful and can wire skyscrapers for demolition without anybody noticing, and control the shadow world government – but can’t quite seem to control that pesky Alex Jones). <\/p>\n

Now we can get to work on cracking the whole chem-trail thing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
