Bonjour Amigos Hypocrite of the Week#12
.
Bonjour Amigos!
Welcome to the 12th edition of the Bonjour Amigos Hypocrite of the Week Awards where our team of experts scours the world in search of hypocrisy. Where anyone is eligible to win regardless of race, creed, color or political affiliation. There are no quotas here at BA.
We begin in Davos, Switzerland where the big dogs are gathering at the World Economic Forum. This year's theme is "Fourth Industrial Revolution" and executive chairman Klaus Schwab issued a double-speak statement that would make any White House Press Secretary slobber with envy.
On the one hand, Mr. Schwab said the rise of new technologies could lead to more trade and open new markets, which could help lift the world's poor. He then acknowledged that they could lead to greater unemployment, further widening the divide between the rich and the impoverished.
From Davos we travel to Saudi Arabia where the Grand Mufti Sheikh Abdulaziz Al-Sheikh issued a fatwa condemning the game of chess as the "work of satan." Equating chess with gambling, he said, "It makes the rich man poor and the poor man rich." Maybe the Big Mufti should be in Davos?
From Riyadh we fight the snowstorms and land in New England where scientists at Massachusetts Genreal Hospital are conducting research into poop pills. THIS IS NOT A JOKE!
Researchers want to see if the bacteria from lean people may help the growing legions of disgusting fatsos slim down so they will begin testing "fecal transplants", or poop pills. The study is open for recruitment.
The Bonjour Amigos Hypocrite of the Week Award goes to America's endemic culture of self-gratification that feels it can remedy any one of its very bad habits with the latest pill.
Antony van Leeuwenhoek would be proud of Mass General.
MATCH THAT QUOTE
Welcome to our weekly contest of Match That Quote where all of you multi-culti Peeps have a quota of three chances to match our celebrity guest with his own words.
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Anton van Leewenhoek!
1. That's one of the nice things. I mean, part of the beauty of me is that I'm very rich.
2. If I want to knock a story off the front page, I just change my hair style.
3. A man has always to be busy with his thoughts if anything is to be accomplished.
Until next week, Peeps!
Hasta Luego Mes Amis!
