Daily Probe booty!




Saturday 26th April


This business with the Iraqis and the fallen statues gives me ideas. My western mind is ablaze with possibilities! Taliban, al-Qaeda, Hamas, Fedayeen, you name 'em, could all be sentenced with shoe-based punishments. Hijackers could be buried alive in mountainous slagheaps composed entirely of old shoes. Merely naughty terrorists would be made to live in a maximum security shoe. "Shock and awe" campaigns might begin with symbolic shoe-cannons. An enormous bomb made to look like the foot of the Statue of Liberty, filled with the disused and highly marinated tread of a million hippie sandals, could be dropped on a Friday night soccer match to serve notice of hostile intent and slight regard. Looters could be deterred with a simple loafer. If I can get Homeland Security to adopt some of these stances, the hope is that we can lower the terror alert color to cordovan.
