cole porter meets 2007

Tra la la: "Birds do it. Bees do it. Even educated fleas do it. Let's do it, let's get piss-drunk, naked, and tied up in our front yards wearing several sex toys." - Israeli diplomat to El Salvador

Yes, he's been removed from his post. The CNN article notes Israel has suffered a series of embarrassing events with their officials in recent years, like:
In 2000, Israel's ambassador to France died of cardiac arrest in a Paris hotel under circumstances the Foreign Ministry refused to publicize.
Of cardiac arrest? [High-pitched Oscar Wilde-y inflection, eyes rolled back in head] MOOORtifying!

Meanwhile, media reports that the old dude was with a woman other than his wife in his hotel caused French and American political figures to shrug. Later, after scandal surrounded this claim, several furrowed their brows, perplexed.

(Big, smarmy thanks to my very dear though seldom seen friend Nice Mike for forwarding the story my way. Better, bub, or were you wanting 'props/big shout out' style?)

I fear that it is too late. For the rest of my life I shall carry around a little numb spot in my heart, a spot that used to be young, bright, shiny, and filled with the joy that makes life worth living. I shall sleep restlessly and awaken to stiffle my sobs and whisper "why? oh Daria, why?" to the darkness of my bedroom. I will be incapable of trust, and the woodland creatures will no longer welcome me with nuzzles and chirps.

With regard to the sexytoys, I question and enjoy the usage of the word "wearing."

Rodential Messenger to the Gods:
Click your heels together thrice. Your woodland friends will find you thusly.

And wear a golden tiara.

For me.

DMn said...

Yes, "wearing" - that is confusing. More appropriately, he was being worn by said sex toys.

DMn said...

Wait. Plural?

OUCH.

The dread aural-beads!

Bah! Hilario.

My sinuses could use some oral-to-aural beads.

(My stomach just turned. Wow. It IS still possible.)
