Better Than A Damn Flash Light
"Better Than a Damn Flash Light"
--Captain Murphy
Today is a new day and it has come to light (HA HA, American joke) that Harebrain is not spelled how I thought it would be. Originally I thought it was always spelled "Hairbrained." Which brings up a ideological debate as old as the Charlemagne. Which one makes more sense? The brain of a rabbit or a brain that is just a ball of hair? I will prove to you that a Cranium full of hair is a better snap than a brain of a hare.
Firstly, the Hare is considered by most to be the fastest and most cocky of animals [ref. The Tortoise and the Hare]. Wikipedia describes the hare as "Hares and jackrabbits are leporids belonging to the genus Lepus." Genus is very close to genius, and the words sound alike, so through the transitive property of multiplication, they are the same!
Hares are also considered to be tricksters, such as Bugs Bunny, a Looney Toons cartoon turned Islamic terrorist. In the early 1980's, Bugs made his Hajj (pilgrimage) to Mecca, and started to associate with radicals in Saudi Arabia. By the late 1980's, Bugs Bunny had moved to Afghanistan with his Saudi friends and begun training for his Jihad for a Islamic state. As a Canadian, the Taliban saw the Bugs as the perfect canadate (HAHA Canada joke) for their Fatwa on the US. When crossing on a ferry to the US with a car filled with explosives, a security agent noticed the hare sweating profusely and nibbling frantically on a carrot. When the security guard approached the rabbit, Bugs made a daring escape back to the shore of Canada and then quickly escaped back to Afghanistan. Soon Bug declared himself a Wahhabi-ist (a conservative form of Islam) spiritual leader or imam. He changed his name to "Wabbit" and now teaches his own madrassa (secular school), but its always on the move avoiding the CIA. Now if a hare is that intelligent, to out smart the CIA then why would we call someone harebrained? Sure it means stupid, but it is also a racist slur, to distinguish the hare as a lower life form.
Hairbrained on the other hand is not a racist slur and everyone can have hair for brains.
In Conclusion, for 2008 theres only one choice, vote Hairbrained.
