So much for the theory that President Bush's "obsession" with Saddam Hussein has detracted from the war on terrorism. The apprehension in Pakistan of Khalid Shaikh Mohammed certainly cut off that tired argument at the knees.

As chief of operations, Mr. Mohammed was one of the biggest squids in the al-Qaida network. He is believed to have masterminded for Osama bin Laden the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States. He's also thought to have orchestrated 1998's simultaneous bombings of American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania and the 2000 bombing of the USS Cole in Yemen.

I thought it was about supper! I prefer pheasant under glass mtself!

[Constitution Day]

I have to agree about the pheasant under glass.

I've never cared for calamari. :)

[Willie Green]

I kinda like the title of the article.
IMHO it does a good job of attracting the curious to an editorial of substance.

[FreedomFarmer]

Calamari bump.

I'm not sure how the squid got on ice, but squids are cold blooded & cannot survive for long out of water.

I'm not sure how the squid got on ice,

Maybe it was tossed there by a Red Wings fan.

Squids have 10 arms. The animal you are talking about has 8.

They don't know the difference in Detroit.
The public school system sucks.
