  1. …punishment than reward. (Although “punishment then reward” would also work, and would frankly be a much more appealing theology).

  2. …punishment than reward. (Although “punishment then reward” would also work, and would frankly be a much more appealing theology).

  4. I am currentlty on Holiday in Benidorm. A lot of itsy bitsy bikinis and lots of appealing flesh on show…but even more less appealing beer-bellies on show…Not a burka in sight….

  6. Sartre wrote “L’enfer, c’est les autres”. There’s some truth in that.

    I moved to Florida from Montreal in 1997. In 2018 I wrote this for my former colleagues up north:

    Je ne crois pas au diable,
    et je ne crois pas a l’enfer.
    Donc pour punir les gens,
    il n’y a que Montréal en hiver.
    À Floride le soleil est fort,
    c’est facile a se brûlé.
    On dit qu’c’est également l’enfer,
    mais heureusement, je suis athée.
    Quand il fait trente-trois, ça n’me dérange pas.
    La maison est climatisée.
    Il fait chaud en dehors, mais tout d’abord,
    au moins, j’n’suis plus gelée.

    It gave them a laugh. I think they liked the idea of an Anglo writing in French.

  7. Yes! We have no bananas
    We have no bananas today
    Yes! We have no ba-na-nas
    No ba-na-nas in Is-lam-ic hades.

    …

    I’ll get my coat.

    And go apologize to Harry Chapin…

  8. Jesus: are you sure there are no bananas in hell?
    Mo: can you spell dog as in dogmatic?
    Jesus: d-o-g
    Mo: spell cat as in catechism.
    Jesus: c-a-t
    Mo: Spell f as in bananas.
    Jesus: there is no f in bananas.
    Mo: that’s what I’ve been saying all along.

  11. We all would be better off if Eve had eaten a banana instead of an apple, but she probably never considered that bananas could be eaten…
