The Palace Of Arrrrggghhhh


While reading a piece in Opinion Journal about the Taliban destruction of Afghanistan's artwork, I ran across this, which is apparently describing a real place.

The Argh Palace here bears some of the worst scars of the frenzy to obliterate.

First the crack suicide squads, then the Taliban blustering with its limbs cut off, and now this.

(Remember the scene where Eric Idle was reading the last words scrawled on the wall in the cave, in The Holy Grail, after fighting off the killer rabbit with the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch?

"He wouldn't have written 'arrrrgggghhh.'"

"Maybe he was dictating.").

Life and this war continue to imitate Monty Python.

This discussion is becoming SILLY! Now I don't want to hear any more of this foolishness, or I will come back here and give you all a good thrashing.
