Phantom 2,469 Posted January 11, 2007 has anyone mentioned that this top al Quada leader has died in a US air strike? http://www.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/africa/01/10...rike/index.html No, because if you read closer, it's not been totally confirmed A Somali official said the United States confirmed that al Qaeda's Fazul Abdullah Mohammed was killed and no civilians were harmed. However, U.S. officials would not confirm to CNN that Mohammed was killed or that Americans were involved in the airstrikes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anubis the Jackal 76 Posted January 11, 2007 As the writer of the song, Dan Penn said... "Everybody keeps asking me what's my favorite version of 'Dark End Of The Street,' as if there was any other than James Carr's" James Carr I recall that Richard and Linda Thompson did a good cover of 'Dark End of The Street' As did Linda Ronstadt. And *I* broke Sneaky Pete's death first, though admittedly it was unconfirmed at the time. So ner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vinegar Tits 584 Posted January 12, 2007 I don't understand the two DDP teams you have Vin, is one a collaboration? Yes. MHOB is a collaboration between myself, my sister and various other people. AYSDD is my own personal one with my own personal picks (half of which were usually rejected by my sister). Don't think I'll be having my own one next year though - I'm losing track of who I've got in various deadpools. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
