Hmm... he stopped posting around the time Gaddafi fled Tripoli.

There's no connection, I'm sure.

I have Al Fansome in a secure location.

We are conducting important scientific research... an experiement:


Trying to turn a long-eared, lip-drooling, knuckle-dragging, sock-puppeting
nasty lagomurph, into a decent human being.


So far, it is a fantastical failure!
All it does is snap its teeth, and then try to log us onto eBay!

Anyone close enough to go check on the guy?

He did tell me he had a new girlfriend. I figured he was talking about something that inflated? Could the old coot have found a flesh and blood woman willing to go into that trailer?
