When someone does something that you least expected he or she would,

When Bush will admit that the war against iraq is a war for oil power and his ego, When Saddam will admit that he was a cruel ruler, When Bin Laden will say how he was actually trained by America Then will the cocks start meowing and the pigs start flying? Sign in to see full entry.

Bow vow! The dogs are purring and the cats are barking!
