Apparently it is not unusual for a male to ejaculate his load during stressful death.

I can imagine one's death is always fairly stressful ?

Better make sure I always carry a hanky.............

Holy men are only human.....yeah, rite.

This proves my arguement, religions, leaders of which, regardless of beliefs, are power hungry, money hungry people, who are abusers of the gullible.

Buddhist monks caught playing poker.

Half a dozen leaders of South Korea's largest Buddhist order have been forced to resign amid a scandal in which monks were caught on video drinking, smoking and playing poker for high stakes at a memorial event for a dead Zen master.

Some, Pete - not all, and I would think not even most. But don't take my word for it! No doubt our pseudo intellectual BM, beloved so much by Taddy, will chip in with his (obscure) point of view... :lol:

A very good summation of life and how we could do better.

THE ANT AND THE FERRARI

(HarperCollins, NZ $34.99)

Life after death

Spackman compares the brain and soul to his favourite motorcycle, the world's fastest street bike, the Suzuki Hayabusa. "Whenever I turn the engine on I sense a mysterious thing I've decided to call the 'sound' of the bike, and whenever I turn the engine off this mysterious phenomenon called 'sound' stops. Now this is all rather strange because my bike is made out of carbon fibre and exotic alloys and yet the sound I hear clearly isn't made out of any of these things." He says there's no definition of what a soul is. If it's what exists when the body shuts down, people who have had a general anaesthetic know there's nothing there.

Capitalism

Years ago, there used to be lots of bakers baking bread; now there is one big factory. It gets things done more quickly, but when the power goes out it all falls over."We are heading in entirely the wrong way in society. The focus is on efficiency but as things get more complex, they become more fragile."

Ethics

With the decline of religion, no one is being taught ethics any more. "You come out of school not fit for society." An "every man for himself" mentality might be good for business, he says, but it means it doesn't take much for the fabric of society to fall apart. Television is part of the problem, he says. "By the time the average American child reaches the age of 8 they will have seen 8000 murders and 100,000 acts of violence on TV." We should be looking for heroes who can be held up as good people.

Destiny

Spackman can't see why people think a life designed by God is more satisfying than one tailormade by them. There are flaws to the idea that whatever happens was "God's plan". "If someone steals my money and this leaves me on a path which produces the exact same amount of 'bestness' in my life and which takes me to the same destiny, why should we punish anyone?"'

Reasonable grounds for divorce

English divorce law requires couples prove adultery or abandonment or "unreasonable behaviour".

One woman's petition blamed her husband's insistence that she speak and dress only in Klingon.

(Sounds like Naam, has he bin divorced......LOL)

Another husband objected to the "malicious" preparation of his most hated dish (tuna casserole).

Aanother spouse had communicated only through Post It notes for the past 15 years.

Another was a compulsive TV channel surfer.

One poor person was married to someone who insisted a pet tarantula reside in a glass case beside the marital bed.

This so kraaaaap

WASHINGTON—A young lifeguard in Florida has lost his job after rescuing a drowning man in a section of beach he was not assigned to patrol, local news media reported Wednesday.

Tomas Lopez, 21, was manning his post on Hallandale Beach, north of Miami, on Monday afternoon when a beach-goer alerted him to a swimmer struggling in an “unprotected” part of the beach.

“It was a long run, but someone needed my help. I wasn’t going to say no,” said Lopez, quoted by the South Florida Sun-Sentinel newspaper and WFOR television on their websites (www.sun-sentinel.com and miami.cbslocal.com).

The unidentified man was rescued, then rushed to hospital where he remains in intensive care.

But when Lopez went to file an incident report, he was fired for going 500 yards (meters) out of his assigned area.

“They didn’t tell me in a bad way. It was more like they were ‘sorry, but rules are rules,’” Lopez said. “I couldn’t believe what was happening.”

“We have liability issues and can’t go out of the protected area,” explained a supervisor for the private contractor that supplies lifeguards for Hallandale Beach, a popular destination for Canadian winter holiday makers.

“What he did was his own decision. He knew the company rules and did what he thought he needed to do.”

No longer in a job that pays $8.25 (6.60 euros) an hour, Lopez said he would do what he did again if he had to. “It was the moral thing to do,” he said. “I would never pick a job over my morals.”

Reading between the lines, they were looking for any excuse to get rid of him (but their choice of excuses wasn't too flash, I'll grant you)...

Boater news? Seems like random comments and unrelated news. What is this thread about, exactly?

Since you are all interested in journalism and current events, here is my favorite:

World's most 'well-endowed' man stopped and frisked by suspicious TSA officials

A man who has the world's largest penis was stopped by security at an airport after guards feared he had a suspect package hidden in his pants.

Jonah Falcon was stopped at San Francisco International Airport as he went through the usual security.

The well-endowed 41-year-old was frisked and had white powder sprinkled on his pants to check for traces of explosives after a ‘very noticeable’ bulge in his clothing was interpreted by TSA agents as a potential ‘biological threat,’ the Huffington Post reported.

Surely this would not happen in the L.O.S.

Red Bull heir suspect in deadly hit and run.

Bangkok's top police official, Lt. Gen. Comronwit Toopgrajank, said he took charge of the investigation after a lower-ranking policeman initially tried to cover up the crime by turning in a bogus suspect. Comronwit himself led a team of officers to search the compound of late Red Bull founder Chaleo Yoovidhaya, one of Thailand's wealthiest men before he passed away this year, and confiscated a dark gray Ferrari with a dented front bumper as part of their investigation.

Betcha a lot of 'tea money' changed hands, what ya reckon.????

ONE in three men are too fat to see their own penis, new research reveals.

A shocking 33 per cent of 35 to 60-year-olds are so overweight that their manhood is hidden from sight when they stand upright and look downwards.

The figures show more than 5.6million men in Britain are potentially dangerously overweight and risk knocking up to nine years off their lifespan through strokes, diabetes and heart disease.

Meanwhile a staggering 44 per cent of those aged between 51 and 60 fail the ’spot the penis’ test, says the research.

You'll be encouraging Humph on here with that talk. :D

I took a peek....its there but a tad shrivelled up....bloody freezing it is here this morning! :(

Don't need encouragement, do I?

(Anyway, if you have a relaxed 10 inches - 250mm - you shouldn't have to worry.)

Is there a relationship between obese men and short penises? (Penii??)

This is a comment from the French satirical magazine, "Charlie Hebdo" (Charlie weekly)

I LIKE THIS, HITS THE NAILS SQUARELY ON THEIR HEADS.

(The nails being muslim protesters)

In rule of law, which is not unique to Muslim states, parody is permitted, we can make fun of everything and everyone

In addition we are not a Muslim state (???)

Finally I think not ......

They react more and more we will not care about them.

Furthermore, why would they be exempt from criticism on what criteria?

As said GENEST "I would have been anti-Christian time of the Inquisition"

We are always ..........

Finally, for atheists, it makes us laugh!!

CHARLIE thank you.

Relates to Australia, NZ, UK, US and many other states too.
