Since there's been no confirmed word of him being alive for at least four months, and he was visibly sicker than hell and weak in his last, undated video, why would you say that?

He's buzzard **** out in the mountains somewhere.

Yeah - I don't remember the actual wording, after it got hashed out a few times because Horsie didn't want to bet on the fate of the Taleban.

Actually it's still April 6. You forgot that things don't count until they happen in America.


Which can be good and bad.

Nope, I'd just like to see what the actual wording was, since I doubt the yellow cur would hide from the world if he was still around - he'd be a rallying point for his followers.

Instead we have one undated video from al-Jazeera in which he was clearly sicker than **** and didn't have anything near his usual bombast. And that was over four months ago - since then, no word at all.

What about OBL's email messages from AOL, though? Clearly that proves that he is still alive!

I can't believe AOL would allow OBL on as a user. Do they have NO morals? This is ridiculous, I mean if there were any reason to shut them down once and for all it would be this.

PS there is no evidence that OBL is dead.

Look, show me evidence that he's dead. The burden of proof lies with you. The fact that he still uses AOL should make it obvious that he is still alive.

Well he's obviously alive and well and using AOL. This proves anyone can use AOL. Who next, convicted rapists and murderers using AOL to send their perverted stalk-mail to unsuspecting victims? I think it's time someone from the government took action. We can control internet usage to various countries, and once we shut down AOL and cut of all the phone lines to suspect countries (by force if necessary) we can prevent this terrorism from potentially damaging our citizens.

That's right and the bet was if OBL was confirmed to be captured or dead before six months elapsed then I had to post a photo. If not, then MTG had to.

So let's see that happy snap MTG. Its already 7 April here. And no wigs, disguises, hats or sunglasses please. I would of course prefer a recent photo too (say, last 6 months) and a full body shot - so we can if you're fat or not.

Hey this is more fun than I thought

*gloat, gloat, gloat*

Can he live up to the paratrooper image

I'd also be happy to make another bet for say another six months once you honour your word on this one

I don't have to show my picture. I won the bet.

We're all just waiting for Mike to be a man about it now

I'm beginning to think he must have a face like a dog's bum.
