"Somebody’s Mother"

The woman was old and ragged and gray
And bent with the chill of the winter’s day.
The street was wet with the recent snow,
And the woman’s feet were aged and slow.

She stood at the crossing and waited long
Alone, uncared for, amid the throng
Of human beings who passed her by,
Nor heeded the glance of her anxious eye.

Down the street with laughter and shout.
Glad in the freedom of "school let out,"
Came the boys like a flock of sheep,
Hailing the snow piled white and deep.

Past the woman so old and gray
Hastened the children on their way,
Nor offered a helping hand to her,
So meek, so timid, afraid to stir,
Lest the carriage wheels or the horses’ feet
Should crowd her down in the slippery street.

At last came one of the merry troop,
The gayest laddie of all the group;
He paused beside her and whispered low,
"I’ll help you across if you wish to go."

Her aged hand on his strong young arm
She placed, and so, without hurt or harm,
He guided her trembling feet along,
Proud that his own were firm and strong.

Then back again to his friends he went,
His young heart happy and well content.
"She’s somebody’s mother, boys, you know,
For all she’s aged and poor and slow;

"And I hope some fellow will lend a hand
To help my mother, you understand,
If ever she’s poor and old and gray,
When her own dear boy is far away."

And "somebody’s mother" bowed low her head
In her home that night, and the prayer she said
Was, "God be kind to the noble boy
Who is somebody’s son and pride and joy."

As another addition to our MTVish blitz of moving pictures on the DumbTube®, we offer our readers a controversial film that has been banned and whose producer has suffered death threats: Fitna.

We apologize for the moving pictures extravaganza of late, but it appears an elderly gentleman in Delmar, DE has reasonable suspicions that some users of the Internet have extremely low retention rates for information presented before them.

We are in agreement with the gentleman’s findings and we at outragedrichard.com are considering a cartoon layout like the graphic novels that are all the rage today. If the change holds our readership then our website will likely advance further and convert over entirely to a DumbTube® of moving pictures in an easy to use Click-N-Glaze format.

The end result that we are aiming for is where mental retention or understanding of information presented is moot, but where the moving shapes and colors themselves of our Click-N-Glaze DumbTube® videos are the highlight for our viewers.

Enough blabbering!

We told you about the sewage flowing merrily along in the Arab gutter until Mohammed Bouyeri popped his filthy head up.

We told you to open your eyes and peruse the dusty annals of the thereligionofpeace.com.

We told you to take a closer gander at the prophet Muhammad, the male whore of violence.

No, you didn’t listen. You were too busy complementing your neighbor’s turban, his wife’s burka, and his daughter’s niqab.

Friends, get busy fightin’ or get busy dyin’! We bringeth the peasants… Fitna!
