Since reading the various headlines that we are just \*hours \* behind Osama Bin Laden, I would like to start a pool.

There are no fabulous prizes other than a smug sense of satisfaction for winning.

\*\*Requirements:  
Date he will be caught.  
Alive/Wounded or Dead  
Country  
(Tie breaker) time of day. \*\*  
I shall go first:

April 4th,2003  
Alive, quite healthy.  
Pakistan, in a cave.  
730amPaki-time ( a surprise wake up call before morning worship)
