There are 22 Osama Bin Ladens on AOL. These Bin Laden screen names are often found chatting in the “M4M Kinky Kabul” rooms, not that there’s anything wrong with that.

OBL:(looking into his mental mirror) Well, I’ve just murdered countless people, nearly destroyed the western stock market, have an army of zealots at my disposal and have had my face plastered all over the globe with a wearing nothing more than handi-wipe wrapped around my head and sheets from the Martha Stewart Collection… now I will kick back and go to the SDMB and ask " What’s the third word that ends with “gry”. Those dopers are so testy. They are so much better at flaming than Georgie W.
