After 9/11, Kevin Bacon is old news. Patrick plays the new internet game. You can follow along:
1. President Bush appoints
2. ex-NJ governor Thomas Kean as chairman of the 9/11 cover-up commission, who
3. serves as a director of Amerada Hess, who
4. is involved in a joint venture with Saudi oil company Delta Oil since 1988, which
5. is partly owned by Khalid bin Mahfouz, who
6. is married to Osama Bin Laden's sister.
There you go. It's easy! Everybody's playing, like Atrios, Theresa, and Ziska.
Now, lets try one at home:
1. Iraqi President Saddam Hussein is a close friend of
2. US DOD Sec'y Donald Rumsfeld who
3. is a close personal friend of Saudi Arabian ambassador Prince Bandar bin Sultan who
4. is married to Haifa Al-Faisal who
5. gave money to 9/11 hijackers Khalid Almidhar and Nawaf Alhazmi who
6. were recruited and trained in Afghanistan by Osama bin Laden.
Maybe even President Bush is playing when he says there is evidence linking Saddam Hussein to the 9/11 tragedy. Now, as an exercise for my reader, let's try Atrios (or his secret identity).
