#4 Though April showers may come your way
They bring the flowers that bloom in May
So if it's raining, have no regrets
Because it isn't raining rain, you know
It's raining violence.

#5 the baddie body count just keeps on rising...

When asked today about the growing Pyramid of Skulls on the White House lawn, Darth Rumsfeld grinned horribly and replied "BWAHAHAHAHA!".

#6 I read the other day that there's a contigent from Mongolia in Bagdad. The last time they were there (1258?) they left a mountain of 250,000 skulls. Here's hoping....

#7 Defense Ministry spokesman Mohammad Ishaq Paiman said earlier the two were hiding in the Dai Chopan area with three other commanders he named as Mullah Abdul Hakim, Mullah Abdul Hanan and Mullah Abdul Basir. Mullah is a title for a Muslim cleric used by many top Taliban members.

Why is it I'm thinking of Newhart? "Hi, Osama! I'm Abdul. This here's my brother Abdul and this here's my other brother, Abdul!"

#8 Steve-
Just ONCE, wouldn't you like to see Rumsfeld make a squeezing motion with his fingers and rumble, "I find your lack of faith...disturbing..."...?
