heh yeah Toby I made the "operation: grima's knife" joke in an e-mail and Tom totally missed that Yassin looks exactly like Saruman and thought I was referring to the fact that Yassin was imprisoned, then released in a deal, and then later killed. "a betrayal worthy of Wormtongue", he called it.

seriously the yassin/saruman thing is the funniest thing in the world to me.

maybe you can get a yassin bong instead of the saruman one you wanted.

So, how long will the media milk this conflict for?
