4. The real Saddam was in Belarus, who knows now. The double, though -
Saddam's double, he is the actor that did the cameo on Seinfeld a few years ago. He gets a week or so of R&R every 8-12 weeks. This weekend, he's booked for a gig on South Padre Island - as a gag Saddam at Spring Break. He's promoting Jose Cuervo "shooters" with some new and clever 'bomb' nickname.

I understand that he's trying to book a Vegas stand-up for his next R&R - strike while the iron is hot, you know.

6. Baghdad Bob
is free and making a living as a correspondent for the Arab press. No kidding.

Tariq Aziz I imagine is in prison in Qutar, but that's just a guess.
