false advertising!

Somebody tell me how it’s fair to use this title:
Muslim-Christian soccer tie scrapped after sex row
…to trick people into reading a perfectly boring and predictable article about Muslim imams refusing to play a team including women priests at soccer?
Dash my hopes for something more interesting in the news today than Paris going to jail, why don’t they.

I did appreciate the part about the “special feelings,” though. Believe me, nothing will help people take your faith seriously like using the language of an elementary school “intro to sex ed” lesson to explain why you can’t play with girls.

Anyway, happy belated cinco de mayo to everyone. I hope you all drank quite a bit of tequila and shot a few Frenchmen to keep in with the holiday spirit. There was a very successful house party here in Inwood for the 5th, and although it killed any hope I had for being productive on Sunday, it was more than worth the sacrifice. I also have leftover tamales from now until probably next year. That’s also for the best–they took a whole weekend to cook and I won’t be doing that again anytime soon.
