But Will the Buffalo Wings be Kosher?

20 Mar

After yesterday’s depressing anniversary, I scanned the news in a forlorn attempt to find something, anything, that would give me a smidgen of hope that the world isn’t doomed, that we’re not on the verge of World War III.

Now, I’m not greedy; I wasn’t expecting to see headlines like “Bush Resigns, Joins Trappist Monastery” or “Al Qaeda Gives Up Jihad, Opens PC Tech Support Center in Islamabad” or “Israelis, Palestinians Sign Historic ‘No Way We’re Fighting Over This Stupid Fucking Desert Anymore’ Accord.” I just wanted to find any good news out of the Middle East, anything that would indicate that folks over there occasionally think about other things besides blowing each other up over their differing interpretations of the Invisible Sky Buddy.

And finally, I found that news.

Hooters To Open Restaurant in Holy Land:

“International expansion is a major focus for our company and we are very happy to add Israel to our family,” Hooters’ executive vice president of franchise operations John Weber said. “The vibrant, fun-loving Israeli community suits the all-American, casual-dining theme that Hooters restaurants are known for. I am positive that the Israeli’s quest for great food and atmosphere will end at Hooters.”

So there is a sliver of hope for mankind after all. If there’s one thing that might provide common ground for Israelis, Palestinians, Sunnis, Shia, Kurds, Iraqis, Iranians, Saudis etc., to come together in a spirit of peace and brotherhood, it’s the opportunity to consume crappy, overpriced food and watered-down beer while ogling scantily-clad hot chicks with big fake boobs.

Halle-frickin-lujah.
