You're Nobody Until You've Been Banned in a Muslim Country

This is interesting news. Ever wonder why an Islamic Government might have a problem with the content here at the AoSHQ? I mean, yeah, I can understand banning the Jawas, what with their irrational need to NOT be killed by some of the nuttier adherents of the Religion of Peace, but why ban Ace?

Then I had an epiphany. This might be why we're banned in Turkey. Or maybe this. Possibly this.

(all links SFW, unless you're working for PETA)

I need to apologize to my co-bloggers. My pork obsession has deprived the AoSHQ of badly needed ad revenue at the same time PJM is throwing all their bloggers to the wolves and circling the financial wagons. I'm sure that Turkish readers would have been good for another $3 or $4 a month in ad revenue. I swear I'll make it up to you guys. Will you take a check? Oh yeah, and you might want to wait a week or two before cashing it.

Hat tips all around to The Jawa Report, Instapundit (Amazon link), Hot Air, and AoSHQ regular Murph in Nevada. Other bacon-related news in the extended entry:

Second Annual Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival Grows To Accommodate Demand
Event celebrates bacon with 7 course menu, lecture, bacon eating contest & more

January 14, 2009 (Des Moines, IA) – Organizers of the first ever Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival were blown away last year when the 180 person event sold out over night. This year’s event, presented by metromix, will accommodate 280 bacon lovers and offer at least 13 varieties of bacon for sampling.

“We were overwhelmed by the response to our inaugural event last year.” Said Brooks Reynolds, whose passion for bacon was the driving force behind the creation of the event. “We want to accommodate all bacon fans by increasing the capacity this year. It thrills me to know how many true bacon fanatics are out there!” he added.

At least 13 different bacon purveyors will be on-site at the event sampling their bacon including Vande Rose Farms, Iowa Farm Family, Hormel, Tiefenthaler Quality Meats, Applegate Farms, Coastal Vineyards from California and Django.

Last year, the guest who traveled the longest distance to attend the event was a man who goes by Mr. Baconpants from Pittsburgh. This year he will return with a film crew to document the event for his website dedicated to “all things bacon” www.mrbaconpants.com. Other websites who have featured the Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival include www.baconunwrapped.com and www.baconfreak.com. Jeff Bruning, co-owner of the High Life Lounge and el Bait Shop was also interviewed on Sirius Satellite Radio and several other national radio shows as the event struck a chord with many bacon fans.

Cost for the event is $32.50 and space is limited to 280 bacon fans. Entry fee includes a commemorative t-shirt, bacon bracelet, a menu of 7 bacon items, one free drink, unlimited samples at the Bacon Showcase, and a seat in the “Baconology part II” lecture.

3 Why aren't there bacon eating festivals in every state in the union? It's wasted fucking genius is what it is. I'm gonna have one at my house tonight. But none of you fuckers is invited cause that shit's going for about $4.50 a pound now and I can't afford but one contestant.

4 This is the only the second-ever bacon festival?! There are garlic festivals, onion festivals, strawberry festivals, cantaloupe festivals... but only the second-ever bacon one. And a teeny one, at that.

That's just messed up.

Vande Rose Farms bacon kicks ass! Not that I'd know, since I'm Jewish...but that's what several pork-eating Gentiles have told me. It's rumored to be yummy.

Very yummy. Nearly kosher too.

Banned in Turkey? Cool ! You know what this means? The same thing that happens to all things banned. They go underground. I can see it now the underground bacon railroad. Bacon smuggling, bacon speak easy's,all forms of bacon trafficing and trading bacon for weapons. Oh the humanity!

19 I like bacon, but I have a slightly different dream. The House of Ham, Madrid, Spain.

To quote the New York Times (ouch) "close to a thousand salty cured carcasses suspended from the ceiling by the hoof, like chandeliers"

A thousand different kinds of ham. In one restaurant. And it serves beer.

23 Actually, it's not Turkey banning us; we banned Turkey.

A couple of years ago we got hit by a month-long DDoS attack.  The only thing I could do to stop it was track down the sources of the attack and block entire IP ranges at the firewall to make it look like we were already down.  After all, who wastes time attacking a dead web site?

Guess where the attack originated?

Yeah.

Never mind, we've been banned in Saudi Arabia, India, and South Korea (don't know what that was about, but it really happened) so we can still hold our heads high.

24 Well...as far as I know, I've never been banned by a Muslim majority nation...but I do have a couple of fatwas hanging around my sorry neck...

Mebbe if they knew that I like fried bacon sandwiches, dripping with real butter... (The looks of weary resignation my doc gives me is heartwarming. Really.)

The H4 replica watches took replica watches Harrison a massive 13 years to replica watches construct-but this was only the end of a lifetime's work. His genius was clear from the very beginning.

This is the real reason why replica Rolex watches are ladies watches ladies watches more welcome than Rolex. Because in this world are not difficult to understand that the rich are much less than people with low income, you agree with me? You are forced to nod and say with certainty that is the reality. These low-income people do not have enough money to save every month. They can not afford such luxury Rolex watches

Others suppose that there is a single Oyster watch. But as a matter of fact, the name Oyster does not actually meant for a rolex Watches particular watch you can buy rolex watches or even to a series but to a type of case that available in some of the Rolex ranges. History The Oyster case was first released in 1926. The objective was to protect the workings of the watch from dust and moisture. Early watches were far from waterproof. The Oyster tag heuer Watchescase was an tag heuer watches innovative design to eliminate these problems. It had a new double locking crown that screwed into place. It has been compared to the hatch on a submarine. Like a submarine, the Oyster case was waterproof. In 1927 Mercedes Gleitze swam the English breitling Watches Channel breitling watches . Before she set off she was presented with a Rolex Oyster. When she arrived, the watch was still working perfectly. The resulting publicity gave the new case a massive boost. Why is it called Oyster? Legend has it that Hans cartier Watches Wilsdorf cartier watches, who invented the Oyster, chose the name because the new case reminded him of the difficulty he had experienced prising open oysters at dinner.
