Cityville, Pokerstars & Osama bin Laden

I wonder if from time to time Osama bin laden or some of his followers play a few hands of Texas Hold'em on Pokerstars. com? (Do C.I.A operatives use agency slush funds to play?) Does North Korea's Kim Jong Il or any of his cadre participate in Zynga's Farmville? Would it be hopeful that they did? Or would it be more hopeful that the popularity of these two social network sites would gradully decline in popularity to be replaced with a renewed interest in real world?

P.S. The German stock exchange has made a $25 billion dollar for the New York Stock Exchange. That price is about half of the valuation that Goldman Sachs placed on Facebook! Should Facebook make a counter offer to the NYSE or should Facebook be a short sale on its stock offering debut?

BREAKING NEWS: Silvio Berlesconi Offers Deal

A desperate Silvio Berlesconi, Prime Minister of Italy, has offered a deal to opponents. Silvio has been tied to numerous sex scandals including under age and under- the- table affairs. In exchange for retaining his postion, he will  get a GPS surgicically placed in his body. The tracking systems will also be available on Twitter and Facebook. His movements, pardon any puns, will be tracked 24/7. In fact the pugnacious grease ball has thrown down a challenge to all world politicians/characters to follow his example. Bill Clinton is studying the proposal and has commisioned a poll before commenting. Goldman Sachs is considering making a market on the reliability of the GPS device and publishing the markets on the social networks venues. Mayor Bloomberg has immediately pleaded no contest. He was quoted, " Why would anyone want to know the sex life of a five foot kike.?"George W Bush was napping and didn't return any calls.
