He was reported dead over the weekend.

Is he/was he living in France?

I hope that every second he lives he is sheer pain and suffers like the people he ruled suffered.

I'm sure he awoke with hunger pains and a yearning appetite. I'm sure Charlie Rangel is happy that we never "took out" this guy.

Reports of his death were obviously just wishful thinking.

The good news is: We still have a chance to hang him!

. . .well, hope while he was comatose he visited Hell and at least has an idea of the 'landscape' he may return to. . .

or, perhaps he has 'awakened' a changed man. . .

He's out of the coma because he's seriously DEAD.

By the way, I'm changing my screen name to BogusPoster.

I start the new job Sat. Kevin will be training me for 2 weeks. Anything you want to pass on to him?
