Our mission

Are you that special person who - weary from trudging the endless superhighways - just longs to camp next to a glorious oasis of the mind? Do you desire to explore new frontiers, splash in shared ideas, fill your belly with the refreshing fruits of inspiration, and bask in the gentle rays of fond reflection?

Well, you can fuck right off. This, my friends, is not that place. This place is... The ShadowLands.

Respect appreciated

Unless you have been hiding in a cave, chances are you would be aware of Baz Obama's attempt to get forehead splinters upon meeting King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, compared to the wink and butt squeeze he gave Queen Elizabeth.

Over at the Sydney Morning Herald, Ms Gloria Starr (surprisingly, not a porn actress - but an expert in etiquette) had this to say:
"I think it was a sign of respect and in no way diminishes the ranking of the President or indicates the greater strength of the one being bowed to..."
Well, okay - now let's check in on how this respectful gesture has been interpreted by the Muslim community.
