The Mineral Water conspiracy

Egypt is a nation of reactionaries who don't think. I just received a phone call that confirms the hysteria that BP has been talking about in regards to our running water. The latest rumor of the day: The Bird Flu virus is in our drinking water, because some farmers threw their infected chicken in the nile. The Horror. The Horror. Better not take a shower Boys, you might get your cock infected (Sorry, had to go there). Better yet, Birds in the air maybe carrying the virus. Don't breath for the next hour or so until the air force chases them away. Can't be too safe now can you? My Boss, on the other hand, has a different theory: That the Water supply people have increased the purifying chemicals in the water out of fear that the virus may spread through that, and are afraid of the effect the chemicals may have on people if they drink it. That rumor is probably bullshit too, because anyone familiar with Egypt's running water knows that the drinkability of the water is the least concern of the egyptian water supply authority. They really don't care! Me, I think this is just another Vodafone conspiracy, and now I am thinking of how to benefit from it perosnally. After all, what's the point of having idiots around you if you don't exploit them? I am now searching the Egyptian stock market for mineral water companies that are listed there and I am buying stocks in them. Lots of stocks. This hysteria should drive people to buy shitloads of mineral water, which will mean the companies' profit will go through the roof, and so will their stock price, making moi mucho dienero. Sweeeeet! I could always use a new pair of shoes!

So I called, big deal ya3ni
Considering that we're stupid enough to throw dead poultry in the nile, and knowing how credible our local media is and the fact that the rumor had been transformed to say that the source was Al Jazeera.. I guess you can't rule out the possibility..
Anyway, instead of buying mineral water stocks, better see where your stocks are and spread a rumor that this company has found the vaccine or at least cooperated with a multinational that has!

Sandmonkey, I have been ignoring sms's coming in on my mobile all morning about this, then my mother in law leaves a message on our home answering machine telling us not to drink the water and I am going, "ok, whatever", then I pick up our kids from school (AIS) and find out they have had the water in the entire school shut off for most of the day!

just think what it will be like in Cairo when the flu really hits...

BTW, great blog. I lurk often.

Sandmonkey,

Is the MCS epidemic caused by Muslims swimming in the Nile as well? I is it solely transmitted orally?

Wait a minute, Egyptians are spinning a conspiracy that doesn't involve Israel. I'd say this is an improvement.

maybe its because of your marbleshitdeadhead ghassy.Surely you cant be serious? You dont believe anything till you see it? do you belive in God by the way or the angels & saints?
No one had a camera to film them,so no proof exists! Good gosh, what are we to do now??!
now aside with the marbledwipeclean.
sandy, is it not only egyptians who are reactionary, any primitive society with minimal scientific thinking would react this way toward any rumour. dead animals have long been thrown in the Nile, so why are people worried now if they have been drinking it for decades?? what the bird flu got to do with water?
I guess next they will worry about Maggie,chicken soup, boycott KFC, Tikka & any chicken sandwich in the fast food outlets.

Marbledthickasbrick is an atheist!
damn, you caught me unawaress this time. So you do have brains & didnt fall for that fairytale we shitheads fell for, tough guy & smart too, but tell me then, what is your theory about life? How did all this universe come to existence in your scientific opinion? What is the secret of humans & why do humans have a brain, like yourself & others (99% of the worlds population) dont?
if you dont believe in a creator, what created all this then??
im asking you to get answers from one of the most amazing minds of all time, im sure you have the answers to these simple questions otherwise you wouldnt have said what you did with such assertivness, correct? im waiting marbleshittypants

In these times: Drink beer! The danes has done it for years, and it doesn't contain any bird flu as water does. All water does. Even that which comes in bottles from France. Even that which contains of melted ice from Greenland (no by the way. That's halfway danish water, and danish water you should buy). Even the water they use in Coca Cola.

Spread this via sms! A lot!

.. and to be politically conscius at the same time: Drink Carlsberg. You'll then support the danish cows - those that has stocks in Carlsberg, that is.

Like me, that is.

And Marblehead and Jokerman: Stop all this loving in public. It makes me blush!

You ALWAYS evade answering question, ALWAYS.
You try to show you are smart, but you are dumb, a halfwit on the verge of bankruptcy, losing all the 4.5 brain cells you have left.
why cant you answer a basic question then?
I know what atheism is already, years ago, you shitbrains.
try to be a man for once in your pathetic existence & answer the BASIC QUESTIONS you claim,you never answer anything at all!!
answer them if you know, cos you sure know as hell you dont know anything, whether about atheism, youre just another sordid dimwit who wants to be different cos he hates everything else. You cant find your place here on earth can you you stupid moron...why dont you fuck off you miserable sod or go kill yourself!

You never write about anything intelectually & the way you evade answering back on issues you know you will lose out if you delve into is very similair to way arabs debate, You ask them a question on any issue & they turn it personal & the easiest way out is to say go find out about it, very typical, & with a name like ghazy i wouldnt put it past you being a an arab who is hiding behind a mask he cant face up to, trying to mingle or hide yourself, feeling shame & overcome with humiliation ( the egyptian who abused you) are major aspects to what you are today, the shithole.
I am wasting time on such a nothing & a loser who has nothing remotely intelligent to discuss.
why dont you laugh again & call me all the names you want, but you know what a loser you are, & more, you have nothing in your head, except a bucket full of vomit.

You started with the bad language you asswipe, & you also started with this way of debating, notme, im just playing with you the same game you are shithead.
& i wont comment on your anger or your dumb remarks,they are evident ioncase you hasdnt noticed, you hate almost everything.
you still evade answering simple & basic questions i asked you, I did not ask you to blither on about your beliefs smartjerk, i simply asked you very simple & basic, & as you put it inevitable...& by the way marblejerk, You could not have read much about the 3 religions so dont try it even, there is nothing in them that controls others via clerics or clergy or rabbis, & so dont pretend to use logic or objectivity either, you could say this to sound smart, that the followers are dumb in some way but why dont u want to discuss it here?
afraid of showing what a sore loser you are? afraid of showing a poor thought? you are using rhetoric that has by passed its expiry date you old sod, & why would i be scared? why cant you answer any questions to see what logic do you have in your mind, if we can call it a mind? why do i have to exchange any emails to discuss it when it can be discussed here? afraid of discussion you wanker? im not afraid simply cos i have discused issues with idiots like you before, sorry, they werent idiots like you, they had some brains, you dont have one, you have shit & vomit still....thats the only way to debate with shitfull of dumbfucks like you..asnwer anything in clear language & as i told you before, sod off wanker, you are way out of your league.

You will have to answer everything & clearly, i know how some atheists love to beat around the bush & prolong on things before they can answer anything & when they do, it never makes sense, just like religious fanatics trying to twist around any verse they can find, what will you twist around other than logic, seeing as you have not answered anything & used rhetoric of primary schools like a sorry sod you are.
i wont use your teenager method of are you scared stuff, thats ancient, answer clearly & logically, & people will see for themselves & comment.

Ok..guys..ehh:

Can you continue having this debate somewhere else? I think I am speaking for everyone here when I say that this has went on long enough, and that we are sick and tired of you two insulting each other. Stop it!

I am not saying don;t comment, but can you do that without , I don;t know, insulting eachother 5 times per hour? And can you not try to instigate fights? I am all for a good fight, but this one has kinda of drawn out and it's not particulraly fun to watch. I guess what I am trying to say is:

CUT IT OUT BEFORE I PROVIDE BOTH OF YOU WITH A SWIFT KICK IN THE ASS! OK?

Glad we have this talk guys. Really. Stay here and enjoy your stay.

And while we are at it:

Egyptian Observer, if people are impressed with your comments, they will use your username to get to your blog. Stop harassing them to do so by urging them to "visit your blog" every 5 minutes. Ok?

Thank you guys,

SM

It's all good marblehead. I get it. However, I will remove the last comment you left before this one, that urges the continuation of this fight. Just to help end it, u know?

And no, me don;t mind at all any borrowing ya 3ammy. No problem!
