I think he’s hinding under a rock.

😕

Uh, the Pit is over there, Great Debates to your right.

And what, pray tell, is “hinding”? For that matter, what’s your point?

On second thought, maybe this _is_ Pointless.

Ah Ha!!! Frostbite falls, that’s a good place for him.

No way. Frostbite Falls passed an ordinance against visitors when Derwood Kirby complained about our Kerwood Derby.

Or was it the other way around?

Maybe the SOD is in Flagrante.

Derwood Kirby??? Man, you are dating yourself now. The Gary Moore show, geez. 😃

When Spiro Agnew was nominated for VP I had to do a double-take, I thought they might have said Derwood Kirby.

Dating myself? Kind sir, I have _never_ dated myself, except when Rocky wasn’t available. . . .

So, any hints as to what this thread is about, or must I continue to imitate an ancient cartoon character. I suspect I’ve stumbled into some Doper game I never noticed before, but one never knows.

[P.S. Speaking of ancient, tain’t too many folks remember _The Garry Moore Show_!]

Just looking for silly places Rummy may be hiding.

Hokey Dokey.  
Maybe he’s in Electric Ladyland!  
(personally, I thought pneumatic ladies were entirely adequate)

This might be a topic more suited for **the Pit** , but I have wondering what has happened to good old Rummy. It would appear that our torture-authorizing then blame-it-on-the-troops Sec’y of Defense has been tied up and stored in a janitor’s closet at the Pentagon until after the November election.

Ashcroft seems to have made himself pretty scarce lately, too.

It seems like the entire Cabinet has been keeping a low profile recently.

They must all be at Dick Cheney’s ranch, Undisclosed Location.

They’re all out with OJ, looking for the Real Killers.

I spotted Rumsfeld at Burger King yesterday. He was hiding behind dark sunglasses, but the sequined jumpsuit gave him away.

I heard he’s busy doing an Abu Ghraib prison photo session for Hustler.
