An Austrian
has been fined for yodelling while mowing his lawn, according to a
report.
The Kronen Zeitung newspaper claims Helmut G. was told by a court in
Graz, Styria, that his yodelling offended his next-door Muslim
neighbours.
The men
reportedly accused the 63-year-old of having tried to mock and
imitate the call of the Muezzin. The daily paper writes the Austrian
was fined 800 Euros after judges ruled he could have tried to offend
them and ridicule their belief. The Muslims, whose nationalities were
not revealed by the report, were right in the middle of a prayer when
the Austrian started to yodel.

The topic of the submissive wife was mentioned in an a Adult Sunday School group I was attending some years back, it was a pretty conservative group this was Texas after all. However the concept of an obediant wife seemed to generate snorts and giggles for the most part and the guys seemed to think that obediance was pretty much a volunter thing. One younger guy asked about forcing obediance, and an older guy told him, "she knows where I sleep, and she has access to weapons. Think Ginzued"
ReplyDeleteWhen yodels are outlawed only outlaws will yodel...

Groin-Grabbingly Delicious RAK!
ReplyDeleteI recommend that a follow up should be that a native Austrian should SUE the Muzlims and their muezzin right after the next call to "prayers" for the hate crime of ridiculing and belittling the ethnic Austrian custom of yodeling.
ReplyDeleteHow about we start a new tradition for church steeples near mosques where we augment the bells with LRADs (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Range_Acoustic_Device)???
