Where's Waldo?

Maybe we should put toddlers in charge of U.S. satellite surveillance, and let them find Osama bin Laden. If they can find Waldo, maybe they can help the Department of Defense find bin Laden.
Saddam Hussein wears a black fedora outdoors, and his henchmen wear matching hats.
They do it because Saddam knows our satellites can identify details as small as a mustache.
So let's consider this. Osama bin Laden is likely traveling with an entourage. So Waldo is more like a clump of Waldos. I really think he could have been found by now, but each passing week nets the U.S. Military Industrial Complex more money, so I think there's been a lot of pussyfooting around.

Some People Don't Know When to Shut the Fuck Up

In 1990, a young man named Chris Jackson was drafted by the Denver Nuggets to play pro NBA basketball. He was good. In 1995 he scored 51 points during a single game.
Shortly afterwards, he converted to the Muslim faith and became Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf.
He refused to stand for pre-game national anthems because he said, "America stands for oppression and tyranny." The fans hated it. The owners were humiliated.
Branded a troublemaker, he was thrown out of the NBA a few years later.
Now 32, he says he'd like to get back into the NBA, but "racism and religious prejudice" have blackballed him.
Okay, I am an ACLU supporter and First Amendment devotee. However...
Recently interviewed by HBO's "Real Sports," Abdul-Rauf said there was no evidence bin Laden was guilty in the WTC/Pentagon attacks.
Then he alleged that some 13 Israeli immigrants were atop a building across the river from the WTC, filming the crash while they laughed merrily. He went on to say they were here on expired visas (There is no record of this allegation with the Immigration Service or the media).
When pressed, Abdul-Rauf implied the attacks were done by Israelis, not Arab terrorists.
For him to allege racism while he makes inconceivably racist allegations against Israelis is simply absurd.
Turns out there is a penalty on zealous stupidity.
Abdul-Rauf was making millions every year as an NBA athlete. Now he's living in Gulfport, Mississippi with no apparent means of support.
At age 32, he's almost over the hill for the NBA, and with that mouth he's just too stupid to get it.
