He was just preparing for the afterlife. At least that is what they would assume in 2346AD when they dug them up to make way for a super-duper Walmart.

I wonder if those were part of the Iraq Air Force show team, "The Lawndarts".

Regardless, it's an excellent indication of the difficulties inspectors have.

That just gave me a great idea for a cartoon.

The caption reads: "Martlet, fed-up with the lack of results in the search for WMD, personally goes to Iraq to find them."

The accompanying picture: Martlet bending over with head buried in sand.

Yeah..worthless MiGs seeing as how they were in the sand..with no protective wrapping..they are ruined..considering the age og that model of MiG..to completely tear them down and rebuild just to get rid of sand intrusion would be cost prohibative.

Go read it again. Some were buried wraped in plastic. They either ran out of plastic or got scared from something....kinda like the USA stepping close on thier heels maybe?

You're all class.

By that I take it that you think you're all class?

Hmm... I get the sneaking suspicion that you don't get the joke.

It's not a beheading thing, if that's what yer thinking....

Yer actually putting yer head in the sand because you appearently think that's where WMD is. The effect; yer head is buried in the sand.

It's a great metaphor if I do say so myself... but the fact that I gotta explain the joke renders the joke lame.

Thanks for wrecking my joke. Thanks a lot.
