According to an email I received, men may find themselves in competition with their own sperm for a woman’s love.

The email’s subject line reads With Spermamax she will love your sperm more than you, but the message itself does not make clear if it is referring to sperm as a whole or individual sperm.

If the advertised product, Spermamax, has the ability to create a love relationship between each and every sperm that a man produces and a woman, this writer predicts an ugly path of lawsuits ahead.

What with the climate created in large part by the FBI-listed polygamist Warren Jeffs, fears nationwide could shoot to alarming levels if Spermamax becomes the consumer hit its makers hope it will. According to Men’s Health over at About.com, 50 million sperm are discharged during just one ejaculation in a normal healthy male!

The challenges for men in this regard are almost too frightening to ponder. The idea of women being suddenly compelled to work their ways through multiple love relationships with potentially millions of sperm… well, I think you can see why I am so very concerned.

Please, please - do not purchase Spermamax! The dangers it poses to the delicate love relationship/eco-system might be irreversible!

Antispam Crusade backfires Blue Security shuts down

The quote: “It’s clear to us that [quitting] would be the only thing to prevent a full-scale cyber-war that we just don’t have the authority to start,” CEO Eran Reshef told The Washington Post. “Our users never signed up for this kind of thing.”

This make me sad. I can’t stand it when the bad guys win. The good guys have a conscience, so they stop what they’re doing, saying they haven’t the authority to start a cyber-war. The bad guys have no conscience and have been attacking the cyber universe for years. They don’t care what people do or do not want, and because of that, they prevail.

I’m grouchy about this now.

Here’s yet another idiotic piece of trash that arrived in my inbox, courtesy of a friend who has confused humor with stupidity.

The text is interspersed with images of naked young women. It begins like this: To all Canadian and all women in other free countries are invited to particicipate, dont let me down

Men will supervise the action . The final answer is here

It goes on to say that it’s the Canadian version of Homeland Security, and is passed on in the name of patriotism. MmHmm. Here’s the rest of the text, sans the naked women:

We all know that it is a sin for an Islamic male to see any woman other than his wife naked, and that he must commit suicide if he does.

Canadian women are asked to walk out of their house completely naked to help weed out any neighbourhood terrorists.

Circling your block for one hour is recommended for this anti terrorist effort. All men are to position themselves in lawn chairs in front of their house to prove they are not terrorists, and to demonstrate that they think it’s okay to see nude women other than their wife and to show support for all women.

And since the Koran also does not approve of alcohol, a cold six-pack at your side is further proof of your anti terrorist sentiment.

The Canadian Government appreciates your efforts to root out terrorists and applauds your participation in this anti terrorist activity.

God bless the Beaver and GOD BLESS CANADIAN WOMEN!

So this is saying that all Islamic men are terriorists, which is not true. Many of us who can recall the Oklahoma City bombing know that some terrorists are white, non-Islamic, American males.

I understand that this email is meant to be funny, but I stand by my belief that laughing at (or forwarding) such stuff implies agreement and/or approval. It’s doubtful that anyone truly believes that this is a true anti-terrorist tactic. The idea is preposterous, of course - using nude women to bring about the suicide of “neighborhood terrorists” - aah, haha, so very funny.

Here are the components:

Men are in charge of women, who will parade around the neighborhood naked - for one hour

By participating in such a way in this event, men will prove that looking at naked women is fine - even if those naked women are not their own wives (maybe even especially if those women are not their own wives)

(This says that married men should feel good about looking at other naked women, and apparently, their wives should feel okay about it too; one must presume that men who are otherwise companioned with women -and those women- ought to follow suit)

The men should have beer at their side during this eventNeighborhood terrorists will commit suicide at the sight of female nudity and beer

As if there wasn’t already enough offensive material in here for you, the author added that the men will be showing “support for all women” by participating in this event. I fail to see how this supports any women at all - the men who are married or otherwise involved with women will surely not be supporting the women in their lives by staring at other naked women, much less “all” women.

The most dangerous myth being presented here is, of course, that all Islamic men are terrorists. It’s dangerous because there are those who believe it, and so will be encouraged in this incorrect idea. There are those who are indifferent, but who think it’s funny to promote anti-Islamic propaganda. And finally, at the very least, by laughing at such bullshit (or forwarding it) one is condoning it. And there’s nothing to condone about this. Nothing.

Just in case you were wondering.

standpatism \STAND-PAT-iz-uhm\ noun:The practice of refusing to consider change in one’s beliefs and opinions, especially in politics.

[The term has its origin in the game of poker. It stems from stand pat, to play one’s hand as it’s dealt, without drawing other cards.]

Now, I’m not going to point any fingers, but this does sound mighty familiar, this standpatism business. Let’s take a trip back in time… Say about 6 or 7 minutes ago… Or the last time you talked to a Red State fanatic… Ah, yes, there it is, isn’t it? It’s all coming back to you, eh?Don’t confuse standpatism with patty cakes, which is, of course, a game in which two participants (as mother and child) clap their hands together to the rhythm of an accompanying nursery rhyme. Or red fish blue fish one fish two fish.

Favorite quote: ‘GODSPLOITATION’: Ralph Winter, a producer at 20th Century Fox Films, said Fox’s home video department was leading the way in pushing for films for religious audiences.

“They’re very interested in opening up that market so we have been making $2 million or $3 million movies based on (Christian) books,” he said.

So maybe Mel Gibson will do his next project on the Christian book to beat all Christian books: The Bible. Why stop with just one small part of the story, when there’s got to be at least a dozen good opportunities to be had? I mean, Gibson can create in-living-blood-style epics, and in all manner of genre: horror, love, mystery, and so on.

To what was I referring in the previous post? Why, this: Internet under Attack by Renegade Spammer; Blue Security Responds; Blue Security Identifies “PharmaMaster” as the Illegal Spammer Who is Threatening the Internet to Keep His Spam Business Running

Whew! That’s a hell of a headline, but these guys are spam fighters, not writers, so I cut them slack. (I’d be willing to cut even more slack if I knew -KNEW- that they wore masks, tights, and capes while fighting spam.)

Here’s an excerpt:

Blue Security is calling upon its members and supporters worldwide to help the community to win the fight against the criminals who wish to control the Internet. Community members and Internet users can assist by making the information published by Blue Security available on their Web sites and help more people know about the community’s effort to reclaim the Internet from the hands of cyber criminals.

And a plug for Blue Security:

Blue Security was established in 2004 by seasoned entrepreneurs Eran Reshef and Amir Hirsh to provide a viable solution for eliminating spam and spyware. The company’s grassroots approach, the Do Not Intrude Registry, empowers members to securely and automatically request that spammers remove them from their lists. The opt-out action encourages spammers to conduct business elsewhere while defending the rights of registered members.
