Mar. 15th, 2004 08:31 amFrance: Bin Laden Nearly Caught in Afghanistan
Didn't they ever hear that saying about 'nearly' or an equivalent adverb or adjective only counting in horseshoes and hand grenades?
Wait a sec. Were they throwing hand grenades at him? 'Cause if they were close enough to fling grenades, that not only counts, that means they were within spraying-with-quick-drying-cement-like-in-a-Warner-Brothers-cartoon distance. Of course, if they could do that, by The Laws of Animated Hijinks, he could escape through a Portable Black Hole (TM) before they could catch him.
Oh, God. Please don't let me keep talking. I should not be able to rationalize Bin Laden's non-capture for three straight years using Bugs Bunny as a prime example.
*goes back to playing the Harry Potter game obsessively*
EDIT: You know, I usually like Snape, but I think just for the Potions Challenge in this game, I hate him just a wee little bit. Just a tad. Or, you know, an immense fucking amount beyond all human comprehension.
And also, I've had a bag of Hershey's Cookie and Cream Bites for three days now that I've been saving for work and I haven't ripped them open and eaten them all in one fell swallow. I'm pretty sure showing that level of restraint raises you to sainthood in some cultures.

Just wondering how it work out if you brought the entire pantheon of Looney Tunes into the mix.

Or was that only me?
