Saddam and his Powerbook

So yeah they found Saddam and everything, but this is by far the funniest thing I’ve read all day…

From AP:

Hussein told capturing forces that his only regret was that due to the timing of his apprehension, he would never have the opportunity to play Halo on his 17” Powerbook. Soldiers were able to capture Hussein by following a power cord running to Hussein’s laptop from a neighboring structure. Hussein told U.S. forces, “Although I was stuck in a whole, couldn’t bathe, and have pooped on myself on numerous occasions while down here, the Powerbook’s backlit keys made computing easy.”

That gave me a good long chuckle this morning, picturing the bearded, filthy Saddam in his hole with his Powerbook on his lap… hahahahaha.
