av8tor Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 "Take me to Libya or I'll clip your fingernails to the quick!" Oh no, I think that I just peed my pants - that would be from laughter, not fear. Well, at least he "asked" to be taken to Libya ... imagine the fear and trembling if he had "demanded" it. Just another day in the aisles of madness, it would appear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
