Cyberdyne's Journal: OBL's reward of 72 virgin...

...ians!

After his death, Osama bin Laden went to paradise.

He was greeted by George Washington, who slapped him across the face and yelled angrily, "How dare you attack the nation I helped conceive!" Then Patrick Henry punched Osama in the nose and James Madison kicked him in the groin. Bin Laden was subjected to similar beatings from John Randolph, James Monroe, Thomas Jefferson and 66 other early Americans.

As he writhed in pain on the ground, an angel appeared. Bin Laden groaned, "This is not what I was promised!"

The angel replied, "I told you there would be 72 Virginians waiting for you! What did you think I said?"

In a similar vein, I like three shorted versions: "The good news? There are 72 virgins here. The bad news? They stay that way...", "the bad news is, there's a reason they're still virgins" and "Hey, I never said they'd be female virgins!"

raisins, or virgins?

This article reports other interpretations... specifically that the promise is of raisins, not virgins. [guardian.co.uk]

Goody!

Being a Virginian, I get to stand in line!

Cheers,

Actually made me LOL: I particularly enjoy the never said they'd be female virgins for some reason.
