#1 MOre proof once again that many ISLAMISTS + MILTERRS HATE SOCCER [ + by hopefully by extension what RAP = NOT-1960's-BUG-MUSIC, ETAL. DID TO MTV].

They want the NFL, NBA, + Baseball, etc. although I'm not sure how they'll get dem Goat, Camel Babes to serve as FEMME PROFESSIONAL CHEERLEADERS???

Just sayin.

That was certainly unexpected, JosephM. Camels in miniskirts -- not an image I ever had in my mind's eye before.

#3 Most times I can't figure out what Joe is saying.

Then there are times when I can, and it worries me ...

#4 Most times I can't figure out what Joe is saying.

Not so hard, common lisp.

#5 I read Joe's postings as a collected whole and catch the "Flavor" so to speak.
It's easier if yousimply emember that English is NOT his language and he's trying to communicate(However poorly) so I give him a LOT of leeway.
He's trying.

#6 Joe does just fine, perhaps a reference to the recent world basketball cheerleaders.

Perhaps the muslims hate soccer because this is the only cup a muslim country can win, and muslims are trying to get it cancelled.

#7 According to the CIA Factbook, the languages spoken on Guam break down as follows:

English 38.3%, Chamorro 22.2%, Philippine languages 22.2%, other Pacific island languages 6.8%, Asian languages 7%, other languages 3.5% (2000 census)

Given his familiarity with American popular culture -- considerably more than mine, but clearly he grew up with a television and I did not -- I suspect that English is at least one of JosephM's native tongues, Redneck Jim. He's just awfully fond of abbreviations.

#8 Also, I don't think he proofreads his literary essais (I think that's how the French is spelt -- feel free to correct me, it's not one of my native or non-native tongues).
