    Who gets to be played by Redford & Hoffman in the Salon movie??

    Great job congratulating yourself. You posted photos that are available in about 5 seconds to anyone with an Internet connection.

    But you did provide some unintended entertainment with the weepy letters from people who shed tears at pictures of insurgents, who the day before were most likely plotting ways to kill American soldiers, with panties on their heads. So sorry that we "offended their Muslim beliefs".
