[kj] a piece of shit hits the fan

The Ks&qs remix, the Holy of holies mp3, switching everyone over to Yahoo...
what a Trifecta,  the last laugh is definitely yours, you bad ass (tho until we see a picture of

working on foreign intelligence matters or coming up w/forgeries so we can bomb off Eye-ran.  I
read on the internet that I-ran 'sheltered' a few alQaeda in their NE areas, so..your mission,
should you choose to accept it, is ... . . . ... ... . . . ... ... . . . ...
