Bummer.

I guess those Dorito cravings got to be too much.

Eleven days? That's IT?

PFFFT. Back in my day, we'd survive on nothing but BREAD CRUMBS. And pebbles! We'd live for the once-a-month squirrel feast, where we'd actually eat more than a few ounces of meat!

Saddam...you're a wuss. A grade-A WUSS. Go suck on a lemon; you need to drink your fluids.

and he has lost four to five kilos,"

How on earth does some FAT, OVERWEIGHT DICTATOR not eat for 11 days and only lose 12 pounds at most? I bet he was cheating.

Considering the horrible ways Saddam used to execute people, one can only hope he is feeling "chipper" someday.

A guard loudly belching in his face with food and beer aromas could probably have done the trick.

And we always looked forward to the rain - as it would make our bread crumbs nice and mushy!
