It has to be said that Eid is a funny and possibly suspect celebration
though.
As I understand it (from one of my Muslim underlings) 3 Mad Mulahs
have to look for a particular phase of the moon. When they see this
phase they declare the start of Eid. They apparently get 3 nights in
which to look for this moon phase. I guess my question is "what
happens if its cloudy on all 3 nights?"
You know, usually south mediteranean and middle east regions are pretty
dry... so it looks like there is a good chance that you will have your
kebab.
I kinda like the idea of having a huge BBQ and getting your friends and
neighbor to come and it eat. The only downside is that muslims can't
drink alcohol, and how good would that be without a few beers? You know,
the kinda stuff you need to get the goat to go down nicely.
Another thing I thought about is this; If we could get the Faithfull
whom are attending the Haaj this week to suddenly apply their brakes
do you think they could stop the world from turning? Better yet if
they all jumped into the air at once would the resultant landing knock
us off off our regular orbit?
No it wouldn't. Even if it was a billion people jumping simultaneously.
Even if they are big 100kg guys, that's 10^11kg. The mass of the earth
is around 6 x 10^24 kg. The effect of a billion people jumping would be
as efficient as a fly trying to crash into a brick to move it...
Talk about "death to Ifidels"! They could do it in one fell swoop! I
wonder if Al Quaeda has spent any research money on this?
Oh yeah let them do that. I could live with that form of peaceful protest.

Al Quaeda was *mostly* bin laden, and he's probably safe and home in his
rich royal Saudi family by now. They probably think of him as a little
teenage troublemaker or something... he's gonna have to learn to be a
rich prince of petrol like the rest of the family, it must be sooo annoying.
