Today’s Jesus and Mo strip, called “cup”, came with an apology for the “gratuitous nudity.”
I already described the Saudi Arabia/Argentina upset this morning, but now we learn that the boys sleep in the nude. Also that Mo isn’t a big footie fan.
Jesus ‘n’ Mo ‘n’ footie

Might it have been too apropos (for Jesus) to have said, ” …clothes on for Allah’s sake!”?
Or, “…for Christ’s sake!”?
For dad’s sake
Something about this reminds me of the Bedouin quote: “I against my brother. I and my brother against my cousin. I, my brother, and my cousin against the world“. Some of the squabbles in the region are fascinating – especially watching people drop all local animosities to team up against someone further out from the ‘inner circle’. It explains a LOT of the region’s politics.
Yep, finding something in common heals a lot. And that’s why I’m convinced of the importance and need to drill into people’s heads what we’ve only relatively recently found compelling evidence for – that we all came out of (or stayed in) Africa ~100Kyrs ago.
With the slight exception that some of our ancestors left Africa ~400K ya, then reunited and interbred with people from the more recent out of Africa movement.
I’m looking at Britain’s “Special Relationship” with America (and America’s not-so-special relationship with Britain) and thinking “the region’s politics” ? And the economic seppuku of Brexit?
Well, I suppose that works for “regions” of 25,000km radius and larger.
Ha!
Last week I was telling everybody that I was probably going to boycott the World Cup*. Then England won their opening match 6-2.
*In my heart I knew I was lying.
Boycott the WC? How? You mean not watch it?
