I’m amused in that I heard nothing about the shredder or the baby thing in all this time.

I suppose it is nothing different than the fictitious atrocities one might hear attributed to someone like bin laden or Hitler. I’ve often wondered how much (little?) truth there might be behind rumors of his sex life, etc.

What’s better than an arch enemy? An evil arch enemy…
