Let me guess…
Crikey’s sacked Mickthesub and FD is claiming a simple layout stuffup and the odd typo is due to
(a) Tired hamsters.
(b) Being thrown from a burning building by Eric Beecher while filing today’s masterpiece.
(c) Andrew Bolt.

My, what an advanced western civilisation we are. That photograph of the US leadership sitting and watching the assassination live on their TV – like so many fat toga’d plutocrats in the Colosseum……. what a reminder. Thank ghoulness these are the good guys !
And now the dilemma – to show the body or not – and the alleged sea burial…..at least this time there’s no need to pretend there’s a grassy knoll.
I was in the pub (where else) when the news broke. The local red neck rocket scientists said a burial at sea was too good for Bin Laden and that they should have diced him and used the chunks as urinal cakes for Allied soldiers fighting in Afghanistan.
After that they went on to articulate policy statements on the best way to handle Villawood asylum seekers (I gather these were roofing experts). “Give me a shanghai and I’ll shift ’em – straight on the f*ckin’ plane home. ”
What a big day’s international affairs work we got through yesterday…..

Just do a “save as” and use your graphics program to turn it around if you’re having trouble!

Though I have to say, I’m a little at a loss as to the point of it being upside down… perhaps a statement I’m missing in the bigger picture.
