Good Thing I Can Run Fast And My Bookie Is Fat

After accidentally clicking on one of my archive links, I came across an old post from April in which I jokingly started a pool on how long it would take for 40% of the population to believe that most of the 9/11 hijackers were Syrian.

Apparently, I just lost a few days ago: "Come on, July 13-19! Daddy needs a new pair of shoes. "

JoeF is out; so is JimMA. doesn't matter loses a side bet, and catalexis has a month to go (although, given that Iraq has proven to be a bit more of a chore than the administration predicted, I don't think this one's going to pay off for him [her?]).

How disappointing. I was so hoping for another invasion before the weather gets too nasty to enjoy it.
