Somewhat surprisingly, my two biggest pieces in 2023 did not result in any podcasts.

Fatwas?

ANYONE who becomes full of anxious about some mullah waving it about

must also believe in such nonsense as the 'evil eye' that is so prominent in the Middle East

When I was posted in SW Turkey people painted their homes, shops, and plastered

their babies with little blue glass trinkets which were suppose to be protective

FATWAS are much like threats that the evil eye will get you.

When someone asked me was I not afraid I replied "I am a Chrisitan. I believe

God directs my life, not superstition"

Never did point out the fact that apparently their 'god' is not strong enough to

protect them

Same applies to Fatwas

It's a joke.

It may be but my comment wasn't

THAT is what Fatwas are. . . .not only now but have been all along

Some mullah waving around his indignation at some violation he sees through a

magnifying glass

Yeah, your inner monologue read that to you in entirely the wrong tone of voice. Try again when you're not drunk and in a bad mood.

The main purpose of this was to grow the audiences of the hosts who were gracious enough to expose me to their audiences

The gamma tells in your speech patterns are painfully obvious.

You inferred “seething” from this post? Keep drinking; maybe when you pass out that chip will fall off your shoulder.

Heh. Spent too long phrasing that reply and now I look like John’s little brother standing behind him scowling and punctuating his replies with “Yeah!”
