    This had me laughing.

    Word is that Osama died an unhappy man because he hadn't had a chance to play Black Ops in over a week.

    This was on my morning coffee and I loved it. Definitely the type of news that can make the day.
    But I hope this doesn't give Obama a mandate to keep screwing with the American economy. His grace period has long gone.

    And in case anyone is wondering... It's none of my business, and yet it is. When American economy (as well as financial institutions) can have such an impact on the world economy, don't be offended if it becomes anyone's business. Definitely it's Americans the one needing to solve their current gigantic problem, but don't expect everyone else to sit tight and not have an opinion on foreign domestic policies, or even criticize them strongly. I'm just adding this little disclaimer because... well, it was the sort of disclaimer I should have had at the beginning of a huge discussion I had with an American friend over this weekend that ended up with me getting a black eye (literally).

    Probably Obama will be required to produce Bin Laden's birth certificate now.
    C programming resources:
    GNU C Function and Macro Index -- glibc reference manual
    The C Book -- nice online learner guide
    Current ISO draft standard
    CCAN -- new CPAN like open source library repository

    So... like the birthers we are now going to have deathers out there?

    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    So Osama has finally bin Laden to rest

    Yeah, sorry, have my almost finished ripoff of Truly Madly Deeply as consolation
    Code:
    This was our dream, our biggest wish
    Our only fantasy
    To get revenge after putting
    'everyone v muslims' into ubiquity
    
    We must be strong, keep our eyes open
    'Cause now there'll be
    New suprises
    In more reprises
    Like Maccy D supersized it yeah
    
    We tracked you into the mountains
    We tailed you into a cave
    The pool on your brain weight opened
    And now we've got your head to shave
    
    And when you flew the planes into our towered two
    We vowed never to rest until our operatives had found you
    Pictures on videos leaking from Arab state TV
    And interrogations of your devotees meant
    We went from Afghanistan, to Pakistan
    Now Queda's man is through
    
    We tracked you into the mountains
    We tailed you into a cave
    We thought we'd have to wait for nature
    But one shot put you to your grave
    
    We saw you on Al-jazeera
    We saw you on the net
    We heard you called us infidels
    Like this was some WWE vignette
    
    We saw you stick two fingers up
    We saw the bloodlust you had
    All this could've been avoided
    If you'd gone 'yeah, my bad'

    I doubt he was really buried at sea. I have an image of him being boxed up and stored in that big room under the Pentagon (as per the final scene of Raiders of the Lost Ark). His remains will probably spend the rest of civilisation there along with the the jar that contains Hitler's missing testicle, the treasure of Atlantis and Obama's real birth certificate
