You and I in a little toy shop…

Let me tell you a little about Israel. No, this entry isn't about Zionism, it's about body modification!

Thanks to Ladyorion for posting a translation of this Hebrew article (Happy Purim!) on the body modification community, including BME and the Lizardman… Some of the quotes are quite funny:

[BME] warns that it showcases dangerous, and even sometimes lethal activities, with doubtful legality. Each of these activities, done in every possible part of the body, has a specific name and a fan base, those who share their personal stories with the readers, explaining how to preform these strange procedures, and photographs. If ignoring the practical (and horrible) aspects of the website, it can be viewed upon from an anthropological aspect.

Well, I'm off to cook something yummy and guiltless. I feel like I should finish every entry with a bunch of Cat Stevens quotes or something… “You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do, and it's breakin' my heart in two…” But I think we all know that OZZY KNOWS BEST:

Generals gathered in their masses
just like witches at black masses
evil minds that plot destruction
sorcerers of death's construction
in the fields the bodies burning
as the war machine keeps turning
death and hatred to mankind
poisoning their brainwashed minds...
Oh lord yeah!

Politicians hide themselves away
they only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor

Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait 'till their judgment day comes, yeah!

Now in darkness, world stops turning
as the war machine keeps burning
No more war pigs of the power
Hand of god has struck the hour
Day of judgment, god is calling
on their knees, the war pigs crawling
Begging mercy for their sins
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings
ALL RIGHT NOW!

Let the hatemail continue flowing… Oh, and while I'm quoting, thank to Meghan for reminding me of this famous quote from Hermann Goering (Luftewaffe commander, second in command of the Third Reiche):

"Of course, the people do not want war. Why would some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best that he can get out of it is to come back to the farm in one piece. Naturally, the common people don't want war . . . that is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it is a democracy or a fascist dicatorship or a parliament or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country."

Wow Shannon, that's really annoying! What is it, 1997 on Geocities? Retroweb is NOT cool!
