Other Stuff

List of people who are Muslim (according to the kids in my town)
  • Swedish soccer player Zlatan Ibrahimovic (his last name starts with Ibrahim)
  • Brazilian soccer player Kaka (he does not genuflect after scoring)
  • Michael Jackson
  • Madonna (uhm...she's Jewish)
  • Barack Obama (forgivable considering how many people in the US think the same)
Oddly enough, Yousef Islam, who did in fact convert and change his name is still referred to as Cat Stevens.

Speaking of Barack Obama, it's getting a bit ridiculous how often I have to clarify that he is the "president" of the United States and not the "king" of all America.

So last Friday, for the first time in my life, I saw a real, live Moroccan ginger. Sure, this dude's overall case of gingervitis was not nearly as bad as the one that afflicts Noonan, but on the Adjusted African Ginger Scale, this guy was off the charts.
