What a coincidence?
Only if no 12er replaces him. Else business as usual. Or don’t hold your breath ...
Does that mean his little peepee hurts when he piddles? I’m so sorry. This must be very discouraging for his goat.
We shall see.
Could be worse...

I recall hearing how educated and western friendly the Iraqis would be without Saddam.
I remember when the old Soviet commies started to die off that the next one would be cool. “His clothes are from Seville Row and he likes scotch”.
