    Tikriti decapitated in Iraqi hanging

    Gruesome detail...

    Saw the "Saddam's half-brother wasn't the Highlander" title earlier, but never would have guessed what the thread was about... sorry. Maybe someone should edit the subject.

    Ya know at a quick glance I thought that topic title read: Tiki decapitated ... until I got to the 'Iraqi hanging' part. Seriously.

    Thought Barber pissed off a bettor or something. :)

    100 percent of executed killers never commit another murder.

    Sorry if the thread title was misleading. The gallows mishap was all over the news today and I thought more people would dig the Highlander reference.

    Do I need to change it?

    Austin Powers: Not the time to lose one's head.
    Vanessa Kensington: No.
    Austin Powers: That's not the way to get ahead in life.
    Vanessa Kensington: No.
    Austin Powers: It's a shame he wasn't more headstrong.
    Vanessa Kensington: Hmm.
    Austin Powers: He'll never be the head of a major corporation.
    Vanessa Kensington: Okay, that'll do.
