The room, the head, or the photo?

Geez, haven't these erudite journalists ever read their Strunk and White?

Cheers!

I am waiting someone to post, as is usually the case, that we should pray for his soul and extend our sympathy to his family. Moreover, you will be castigated for your comments as being insensitive and uncaring.

As for me, I hope he burns in Hell.

What a sight for sore eyes - almost as nice as when those two off-spring of Sadam bit the dust.

Hijackers Surprised To Find Selves In Hell

'We Expected Eternal Paradise For This,' Say Suicide Bombers September 26, 2001 | Issue 37•34

JAHANNEM, OUTER DARKNESS—The hijackers who carried out the Sept. 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon expressed confusion and surprise Monday to find themselves in the lowest plane of Na'ar, Islam's Hell.

"But instead, I am fed the boiling feces of traitors by malicious, laughing Ifrit. Is this to be my reward for destroying the enemies of my faith?"

The rest of Atta's words turned to raw-throated shrieks, as a tusked, asp-tongued demon burst his eyeballs and drank the fluid that ran down his face.

With that look on his face maybe there really is something to the 72 virgins promised.

The sheet is covering up the pieces of the puzzle. The reports are the missle made a direct hit on him and they had to pick him up in pieces.
