3. I've always had mixed feelings about him.
He was fighting for a cause, to get his people's land back, but I despised his methods.

10. Nicest thing I could say about the guy?
"He could have been remembered as a man of peace"

But he won't be.

16. They're on an island together - with Elvis, JFK, Jimi Hendrix,
John Lennon, the Lindbergh Baby, Kurt Cobain, and the first Darrin from Bewitched.

Oh, and they have radios made out of coconuts.

20. I heard Crater left the country with a load of money.
As for Hoffa, he's probably in the cornerstone for some building in the Chicago area...

22. If only Ariel Sharon would take a hint and join him...
Edited on Wed Nov-10-04 11:35 PM by 0rganism
Perhaps wise and charismatic men of peace will arise to lead Palestineans and Israelis to a truly equitable single-state solution, and the Holy Land will stand as an example to the entire world of the ability of once-antipathetic humans to mend their differences in the name of respectful coexistence.

Or not.
