‘GITMO DETAINEES FORCED TO WATCH GIGLI.’ —– by Steve Nadis

Like most of my posts, this one was “inspired by” (a euphemism for stolen from) my good friend Dr. Max (see link on right). That obligation dispensed with, back to today’s headline: ‘GITMO DETAINEES FORCED TO WATCH GIGLI.’ Yes, it’s true, I’m not making this up. Enemy combatants at “Gitmo” are now forced to watch either Gigli or Jersey Girl as part of a new form of punishment (we won’t call it “torture”) that falls in a grey area of international law. (Human Rights Watch has yet to comment.) Detainees granted full “prisoner” status, and therefore subject to protection under the Geneva Convention, are allowed to see movies that don’t feature both Ben Affleck and JenLo. That’s all I have for now, but I promise to keep you informed as this late-breaking story unfolds. And now, back to Gigli.

    And soon we’ll be able to threaten them with Deuce Bigalow, European Gigolo.

    Thanks Doc. I guess this means you won’t sue me if I run with the Deuce Bigalow angle?

    Snake I don’t sue. My lawyers sue.

    Maybe your lawyers can sue my lawyers and we can stay out of it.
