I Divorce Thee

My friend, Kerri, and I were talking about how weird it is that all Middle Eastern men have to do to legally divorce their wives is to say "I divorce thee" three times.  That's it.  That's all they have to do and the woman is out on the streets without a penny to her name.  Very sad, but you can be sure that Kerri and I found the humor in it.

Kerri: Do you think they say it twice and stop right before the third time just to tease their wives when they are fighting?

HAHAHAHA!  I laughed.

"I divorce thee, I divorce theeeeee........that's right.  Don't ever make pork chops like that for dinner ever again."

"I divorce thee, I divorce thee, I dddddddd----dddddd----dddddddddddddddd.......DON'T make me do it!  That's what I thought.  I don't need directions, I know where I'm going."

You know, when I get to Heaven, I fully plan on asking God the things that I'll never figure out while here on Earth.  Along with my questions, I have one request from God.  I want to ask God to see just ONE Muslim man's face the second he gets there and realizes that there aren't 12 golden virgins waiting on him, that's assuming that those men even go to Heaven.  I mean, now we're getting into a totally different discussion about their god, etc.  Also, any man who treats their wife like a cow probably won't be there in the first place. 

On a side note, how stupid are these men for wanting virgins?  Virgins have a shelf life of one second.  You can be a virgin for 15 years and in one second, you're not.  Once it's done, it's done.  You can't reverse virginity.  It makes no sense.  Unless they think in Heaven the virgins will stay virgins?  Now how does that make sense?  Where's the intrigue?  I think they need a new dream, like a 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO.

But for writing's sake, can you picture their faces when they arrive to the gates and are told that there are no virgins waiting for them?  Especially the ones who died just for that reason.  It would be very funny to me! 

Have a great Monday!
