| From Mark Steyn: EFL - Markâs take on Cretinâs handshake with Mahathir. My own theory is that, just as Canada was the only western nation afflicted by SARS, so too it may be the only western nation afflicted by Sudanese Vanishing Penis Syndrome. This ran rampant round Khartoum last month, after reports that foreigners were shaking hands with Sudanese men and causing their penises to âmelt awayâ. Iâm not a trained physician â if I were, Iâd have left Montreal and be working in Houston â but, insofar as I understand it, in Khartoum what happens is that the foreigner shakes hands with the Muslim and the Muslim subsequently discovers that he has âlost his penisâ. But, in this distinctively Canadian variant, what happens is that the foreigner shakes hands with the Muslim and itâs the foreigner â the Canadian â who discovers that his manhood has completely disappeared. No doubt M Chretien entered the room intending to treat Dr Mahathir to a vigorous Bush-like demonstration of moral clarity only to shake his hand and get that strange shrinking feeling. |

| #2 Wait, has Chretien EVER had a penis? Of his own, that is. |

| #1 A lurker being self-outed. Ouch! As a long time Yukoner, I can tell you that there are lots of reasons for the shrunken/lost penis syndrome beyond the Mark Steyn theory: The biggest is: It's frigging cold! I'm getting old! Too many beers! I have been married to my wife for 10+ years. I need a hot shower just for foreplay. Kidding, but when she takes an evening shower, Peter had better work or else! Seriously though, I would like to apologize for the Canadian weiners that have been making their increasingly irrelevant comments known. |
