Livingston man nabs Al Qaeda chief

He accomplished the mission that the Bush administration could not. And he did it all with a simple but heartfelt slogan on the back of his pickup truck, and at no cost to taxpayers.
An unidentified Livingston man was seen 
driving around town today with Osama bin Laden in handcuffs, like a trophy from the hunt. Many have seen the message on this ubiquitous truck, “Hey Osama Kiss My American Ass,” and few doubted that this patriotic sentiment would lead to the ultimate surrender of the Al Qaeda chief.
Reportedly bin Laden was returning to the Billings airport from a recent visit to a sleeper cell in the Helena area when his entourage decided to drive through Livingston. Whether they hoped to recruit here, or they had simply read about Livingston’s recent tourism award is unknown. Details of what happened next are
sketchy at best, and ‘American Ass’ has yet to come forward to fill in the gaps.
Not everyone is convinced that the case is closed, however. Mary Ellen Beaudelair, a cashier at Pamida claims Mr. Ass purchased an Osama bin Laden hand puppet at the store last week. At least one woman doubts the existence of “any links between [Mr. Ass] and anyone from Al Qaeda. It’s a damn puppet he’s got in that truck. I’d bet my American ass on that.”
As for this reporter, still stinging from the confiscation of her hair gel at the Bozeman airport a couple of weeks ago, I am jealous of anyone who could get through airports while looking very much like Osama bin Laden, not to mention anyone with an entourage.
