Since I stopped showering I have not been cold.
It doesn't matter that it's summer and it doesn't get cold. It was entirely a result of stopping showering.
OBL and company haven't been able to pull of an attack. They're on the run and on defense. But it doesn't seem to have stopped some of their ideologues from trying to attack the US and US interests.
And what does OBL and company want from the USA?
