Did you really feel "welcomed" to the jungle by axl rose, or do you think that was sort of just insincere, halfhearted graciousness? [via TMN]
This was originally from a McSweeneys article,

oh, right. i saw that. oddly enough, i taped a '50 biggest celebrity feuds' show for Vh1 a couple of days before that mcsweeney's article came out and i'd say the questions were pretty accurate. ("like, if cat stevens and salman rushdie got in fist fight, who would win?")
Posted by: elizabeth at July 30, 2003 12:03 PMwait, so who would win?
Posted by: Jim at July 30, 2003 04:53 PMIf the battle is man to man, Rushdie wins. Stevens, after all, was just an over-sensitive musician and Rushdie just looks sort of mean. Plus, he's swarthy. But if they're allowed to bring their boys along, Stevens wins, no question. He's on the side of Allah and his posse probably brings some serious Wahhabi Wasabi to the ring. What's Rushdie got? The crowd from the 92nd St. Y?

BONO KILLS ALLAH DEAD.
I haven't read all of the Qur'an, but I'm sure that's in there.
