    We can do something right here at sj. We can all send them tweets promoting democracy and our way of life over Muslim law.
    We can include pictures of such iconic symbols of America such as Walmart, McDonalds and Snooki- kinda of a "you can have this too".

    I see that effort as a total failure if it doesn't include Steeler Girl.

    Anyone else see the thread title and think "Worst Beach Boys song ever?"

    Kokomo?

    You know what though - the lyrics might inspire the women of Tunisia and Egypt to vote democracy.

    I just tweeted the lyrics to the Peoples Army of Tunisia.


    Aruba Jamaica ooo I wanna take you
    Bermuda Bahama come on pretty mama
    Key Largo Montego baby why don't we go
    Jamaica

    Off the Florida Keys
    There's a place called Kokomo
    That's where you wanna go to get away from it all

    Bodies in the sand
    Tropical drink melting in your hand
    We'll be falling in love
    To the rhythm of a steel drum band
    Down in Kokomo

    I want to say thank you to both of you for putting that song in my head this morning.

    And by "thank you" I mean "you suck".

    Hey I'm looking out at 18 inches of new snow on top of the 15 we got last week.

    It's a good song to here about now.

    Hey 21 if I can get a flight I'll meet you in Kokomo.

    I'm hoping our CIA and other Black Ops boys are getting their Yemen on right about now, using the chaos as cover to infiltrate and take out as many AQ-in-the-AP militants as possible.

    I agree with AQB, but it was a pretty good line.
