Very Clever Mozart: For Not Having Mohammed’s Head In The Original Production Of Idomeneo By : Tom Attea As all the world now knows, Berlin’s Deutsche Oper closed a production of Mozart’s perennially harmless opera Idomeneo, because of “incalculable risk” due to a threat from a Muslim group or individual over the director’s decision to include a scene in which the heads of Mohammed, Jesus, and Budda are presented without their accompanying bodies. The heady scene is reportedly an effort on the part of the director to mix opera with his own anti-religious sentiments. While ... Poll In Iraq Proves It’s Hard To Be Grateful When You’re Being Blown Up By : Tom Attea One would think that the number of American lives that have been sacrificed or maimed and the enormity of American treasure that has been expended in Iraq would elicit some degree of gratitude among Iraqis. But a new poll, which was done for the University of Maryland's Program on International Policy Attitudes, proves that it’s hard to be grateful when you could be blown up or otherwise assassinated at any moment. Here are a few absences of gratitude that the Bush adminis... The American Umpire. Conducting The American Empire In A Way That’s As Fair As The Calls In Yankee Stadium. By : Tom Attea We were sitting here trying, as usual, to figure out how today’s America, saddled with the burdens of inadvertent empire, could conduct itself in the world so Americans are happy about how we’re doing and the rest of the world might actually either approve or have a hard time disapproving of our behavior. We finally hit on an answer that’s so moronic we knew right away it has real potential. We behave as if we’re the American Umpire, that is, we call the balls and strikes ... Senate Approves New Legislation Aimed At Interrogating Itself By : Tom Attea The Senate, immediately after voting to approve legislation governing the interrogation and overall treatment of terrorism suspects, voted on new legislation that would compel it to interrogate itself about why nearly every member’s speechifying has been directed, not so much at the nation’s problems, but at the November voter. The body very politic had good cause to approve the controversial legislation. While a dozen Democrats crossed party lines to support the legislati... Smart People Say Stupid Things Too! By : Gabriel Adams Have you ever made a comment that was simply ridiculous, but you didn’t realize it until you saw the smiles on your friends faces? You may have been totally mortified afterwards, but the truth is everyone makes comments like that; even the smartest people in the world make dumb comments too. The best part is: the smarter they are, the harder you laugh. My friend Jessie recently graduated from MIT and headed off to Princeton to get her PhD. A month after she moved in, she c... The Invention Of Land; An Eyewitness Account, Second Half - Part Two Of The Invention Of Everything By : Tom Attea "Always metaphysical. Can we just stay with the practical stuff for now?" "Sure. Just thought I'd bring it up." "Anybody got a name suggestion?" "Well, since the whole thing is so sudden it could all kind of go bang." "Sounds reasonable. So we call it a 'bang.'" "You mean, 'The Bang.'" "Right." "That’s it? Something this big?" "OK, OK, how about 'The Big Bang'?" "Very workable. But I don’t know if it captures the romance of it all." "Only a scien... Noam Chomsky Gets A Bestseller The Incriminating Way By : Tom Attea Noam Chomsky, the innovative linguist on the left, went from the relatively placid life of a leading scholar to a major presentation by Hugo Chavez at the UN, who held up as recommended reading one of his many books, with the hefty title, “Hegemony or Survival: America’s Quest for Global Dominance.” Apparently, Chavez has as much influence as Oprah. The book, though published in 2003, shot to the bottom of the NY Times Bestseller List – ten out of a possible ten, but still... Chavez Bedevils Pres; Rangel To The Rescue By : Tom Attea At least, Washington can agree to come together to defend one of its own. The politcos did just that in response to Hugo Chavez calling President Bush “the devil” in a speech at the United Nations. Commendably, Representative Charles Rangel, a New York Democrat no less, came forward fittingly irate to say, “I want President Chavez to please understand that even though many people in the United States are critical of our president, that we resent the fact that he would come... Iranian Woman Is First Female Space Tourist; Agrees To Wear Spacesuit By : Tom Attea Just when we thought all Iranian women were contentedly hiding behind their veils, what do we read but one not only made it to America but just made it into space? The daring and successful Anousheh Ansari, who grew up in Iran dreaming, not of memorizing the Koran as a safe substitute for original thought, but of space, has become the first female space tourist. She blasted off from Kazakhstan in a Soyuz rocket with astronaut Michael Lopez-Alegria of NASA and cosmonaut ... Bin Laden Dead Or Alive? Since Nobody's Sure, We Wrote Both Articles. By : Tom Attea Bin Laden Dead Osama Bin Laden is dead. We know this for certain, because, after five years of knowing only that he had access to a tape recorder, we were bound to know at least one thing about him that is certain. We’re also as aware as we care to be that there have been previous rumors of his death. But, as we all know, when you want something to happen, at least three or four rumors seem required before one is actually true. So how do we know this one is the re... What If The Most Powerful Nation On Earth Was Iran? By : Tom Attea Is everybody happy with the way the US is behaving as the world’s most powerful nation? No? Well, when has everybody ever been happy about anything? So let’s think about what other nations might do a better job. What if Russia had won the cold war? How much do you really enjoy vodka? And do you long to drive a Zil? How about if China hadn’t decided that military conquest would be too self-destructive and opted to give economic conquest a go? Wish you could dress like Ch... The Invention Of Sex; An Eyewitness Account - Second Half Of Part One, "the Invention Of Everything" By : Tom Attea (Suggestion: Read The First Half of Part One First) “What?” “Brush burns.” “What do you mean?” “What are we making the skin out of, vinyl?” “You’re right. Hey, I have it.” “What?” “We take an idea right off the top of their heads.” “What’s that?” “Hair. We put some hair down there, sort of like a cushion.” “Long hair like they have on their heads? That might complicate things.” “I have it. What if we make a special kind of short, fuzzy hair? F... The Invention Of Sex; An Eyewitness Account - First Half Of Part One, "The Invention Of Everything" By : Tom Attea An unexpected manuscript showed up in our inbox. We were immediately convinced of its authenticity and decided we had to share it with you. It was accompanied by the following note: “Hi, there. How’s life working out? Who am I? That’s for me to know and for you to guess. Let me just say that I witnessed the invention of everything. And I kept good meeting notes. "I wanted every planet to come with an instruction manual, but my suggestion was a nonstarter. I decided the ... Lady Macbeth Just Won’t Make Her Exit; Now She’s A Syndrome By : Tom Attea Anybody who has wended his or her way through the linguistic excellences and frequently petulant schemers in Shakespeare’s plays longs, at some point, to say to Lady Macbeth herself, “Out, out, damned spot!” After all, how much can anyone take of such a relentlessly scheming prod to the plot of Duncan’s uninvited demise and Macbeth’s unmotivated remorse. Perhaps Macbeth’s own murderously ambitious temperament can be traced to having to live with such a harridan. At any rat... U. S. May Become Nonaligned Nation; Cites Worldwide Ingratitude By : Tom Attea In case you haven’t heard, there is a brash new movement afoot to make America a nonaligned nation. The principal motivation behind the movement is worldwide ingratitude for the sacrifices America has made for the benefit of other nations, while getting back precious little in return, materially or even in simple gratitude. Certainly, the group maintains, the payback in either form has hardly been commensurate with the sacrifices America has made in life and treasure. The ... Israel Weighs Recognition Of Palestine’s Right To Exist By : Tom Attea After decades of refusing to admit that Palestine has a legitimate right to exist, Israel inched toward possible approval of the idea it has opposed as part of its militantly anti-Palestine platform. Palestinians, who have by now grown used to the belief that they are the ones who get to decide which state has a right to exist, were bewildered by the surprise announcement. They also puzzled over whether it meant that they really ought to acknowledge Israel's right to exist. ... Quick Question: Does God Advocate Murder? By : Tom Attea It appears, scandalously enough, to be the question Islamic terrorism foists on us. Of course, there are times when a chancy question can diplomatically be allowed to slip by unanswered, especially by a humor magazine. But there are also times when, instead of slipping by, it just keeps putting itself in your face. On such occasions, apparently, the only way to deal with it for ourselves and our readers is to address it. We became even more convinced of the necessity as we... Oui, Monsieur, The French Are Not Immune; Si, Signore, Even The Pope Must Do The Rope A Dope By : Tom Attea In a world caught up in effects, with scant attention being paid to causes, we find that France – which has, in the understatement of the current issue, abstained from a full-throttle commitment to the war on terror – has gotten its terrorist wakeup call. Al-Qaeda announced it had formed a union with Algerian insurgents who consider France their enemy. The deadly duo have agreed to work together against French and, you guessed it, American interests. Naturally, the terrori... Senate Wonders If New Kind Of Warfare Requires New Rules; Forgets How Colonists Picked Off Redcoats By : Tom Attea The Senate is debating whether or not guys who go by the rules of the Geneva Convention can defeat guys who torture people and shoot them in the back of the head. Even Colin Powell jumped in and said he thinks we should adhere to the Geneva Conventions in order to protect the safety of our own troops, as if the terrorists are likely to observe the rules if they get their hands on our troops. George Bush, on the other hand, thinks the Geneva Conventions ought to be as malle... Western Leaders Release Video; Urge Muslims To Convert By : Tom Attea The leaders of six Western nations whose inhabitants have, at least in the distant past, experienced the redemptive insights of the Enlightenment, with its insistence that reason should play a foundational role in human thought and that an idea like Condorcet’s “perpetual peace and progress” might be more than a pleasant alliteration, finally grew weary of the interminable train of vitriolic videos out of the insane mind of Aman Al-Zawahiri, the Egyptian pediatrician turned c... Kofi Annan, The Middle East Repairman; Can His Handiwork Keep The Peace? By : Tom Attea Secretary-General Kofi Annan sped to the Middle East with his UN emergency repair kit to do maintenance work on the quick fix the UN implemented between Israel and Hezbollah. Only trouble is, his traveling handiwork doesn’t seem as much like the permanent fix as all the world would like to count on. Even while he was cobbling the warring factions together, his work looked more like duct tape that could unravel as quick as a speeding bullet. For instance, the dutiful diplom... Tony Blair To Resign As British Pm; May Run For Us Vice President By : Tom Attea Tony Blair announced that he will step down as Prime Minister of England within a year and give up leadership of the Labor Party, which has been increasingly upset with his performance and approval ratings. What Mr. Blair did not announce is that he is just plain fed up with not being properly appreciated by his own party and nation, and he has conducted a secret poll of his popularity in the US. Dismayed, he discovered that his approval rating is higher than President Bus... What? An Iranian With A Good Thought In His Cranium? By : Tom Attea What do you know? There’s at least one Iranian who still has a good thought in his cranium? It appears that Mohmmad Khatami, the mullahland’s former Pres is just such a resilient and commendable gentleman. During his two-week trip to the USA – interestingly, the mullahs behind the rascally current President allowed his visit and, not only that, our security personnel let him in – he wisely acknowledged, “In the crime of 9/11, two crimes were committed. One was killing inno... Aye, Capt’n Bush, 'Tis Not Only The Storm But The Navigation By : Tom Attea “What a night to be at sea!” shouted brave Captain Bush into the rain-slashed, wind-whipped Middle Easter that had suddenly come upon The Good Ship USA. “Yar, yar, ya got that right, Cap’n,” returned his faithful and once jocund first mate, Rummy, now hunkered down as he, too, braved the ceaseless wrath of the oncoming tempest. Just then yet another mountain-size wave, black as the turban of a radical Muslim cleric, upturned and dumped its chilling contents on the creak... Exploring Comedy Groups By : Robert Michael Are you looking for a comedy group that offers something for almost anyone then enjoy! 1. A funny, improvisational show that is played out as a sport is called ComedySportz. Entertain business associates, your family and even church groups at a show such as this. 2. Two teams make up games, scenes and songs on the spot to gain points, as well as, laughs. There are referees to call fouls and the National Anthem is sung before each game.
