Kill joy! :-(
Hope he toasts in Hell one day. He can repent aaaaaaaaall he wants. In
fact, I'd like to SEE him down there at the entry of the fiery bowels
of Hell on his knees sobbing not to be put in there for all of
eternity. Like 'South Park', I hope he sees Saddam Hussein and the
Devil himself sodomizing each other while Saddam's dirtbag sons use
over-sized hand fans to cool them off while it's all happening on
either side of the bed (obviously I'm thinking too much into this
scenario).
