  4. Saddam Starred in Gay Porn Films! by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    KUWAIT CITY -- Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein has been caught with his pants down -- literally. A shocking 1968 porn film has surfaced, in which the flamboyant strongman appears performing raunchy homosexual acts!

    The image quality of the grainy 16mm film, uncovered by the Kuwaiti secret police, is poor -- but experts who've taken a close look at the hairy-chested actor are "100 percent certain" it is a younger, trimmer Saddam.

    "There is no doubt in my mind that this is Saddam -- there's no mistaking those eyes and that distinctive nose," declares Hussein biographer Sadiq al-Sabah of Kuwait, who's seen the eye-popping footage first-hand.

    "It may be hard to believe that a man who now leads one of the most powerful nations in the Middle East once acted in blue movies, but to anyone familiar with how reckless and sexually promiscuous Saddam was in his youth, this will come as no surprise. It's also a known fact that the young, desperate soldier did anything for money.

    "Saddam appeared in as many as 85 of these films under a variety of stage names, most frequently Omar Studdif," reveals the researcher.

    Still photographs from the sizzling XXX-rated film, La'iba al-Waladaani (The Two Boys Played), were leaked to a Kuwait news magazine after authorities found it amid a stash of illicit porn in the vault of a recently deceased sheik.

    Release of the pictures has resulted in howls of protest from Baghdad.

    "President Hussein is the manliest of men. He would never behave in such a repugnant manner," says an Iraqi spokesman. "This is CIA propaganda."

    But rumors that Saddam appeared in gay porn films in his younger days have dogged him for decades and almost torpedoed his political career when he was a rising star in the ruling Baath Socialist party.

    "He was able to squelch the rumors in the past, but now it looks like the Kuwaitis have found the smoking gun," says a State Department source.

    Al-Sabah claims that Saddam, then a struggling law student, acted in porn to make ends meet -- and because he was addicted to gay sex.

    In the newly uncovered 86-minute prison flick, Saddam, then just 34, plays a naive young peasant who is wrongly convicted and sent to jail. He is initiated into homosexuality by a series of older and more experienced cons.

    "Saddam's acting in the picture is actually quite good," al-Sabah notes. "One scene, in which he buries his face in a pillow and cries, is so touching you almost can forget you're watching a low-budget sexploitation film." -- By MIKE FOSTER

    I took a long drink from the bottle of water I brought with me along with some breath mints, Vaseline, some condoms and a book. I hadn?t had time to read much this time but had no complaints. I was having a good time but was still hoping for more cock to suck and more cum to taste.

    I heard more talking outside as the door opened and in walked a man with a kid about 6 years old. He went to the 3rd booth yet I could still see them through both glory holes. The younger boy took his piss while his father stood near by. They did their business then walked to the sink as daddy instructed his son to wash and dry his hands. Then they left.

    Just a few moments later the father came back in and sat in the booth next to me. ?Aww Haa? I thought to myself. ? Daddy wanted to play.? I? bet he took his kid back to the car and now Mom was watching the kid while Daddy got his cock sucked.

    He remained quiet for some time before he made any move. I decided to show him my cock and perhaps he would get the idea. I leaned back to give him a peek. Much to my surprise, he motioned for me to place my cock into the hole. I stood up to give him a good look then put my cock and balls into the hole. He held it very gently caressing, fingering and touching the head of my cock and exploring every inch of it. He placed his finger under my foreskin and wiped the head of my cock to taste pre cum now dripping from my piss slot. He was carefully exploring my cock. He wanted to do something with it but not sure what he wanted to do. I though I was not going to get any sucking from this married dude. He wanted to fulfill a fantasy of holding another mans cock in his hand. Suddenly I felt his warm tongue touching the head of my cock and slowly started to jack me off. I let him play around with my privates not only because it felt good but also I knew I could cum again. He continued to work my cock up and down and gently caress my cum filled balls with his fingers. If he kept jacking on me this way I would cum all over him.

    It was exciting having a married man jack me off. I could feel my nuts tighten as an orgasm was building. I was going to shoot another load. I started breathing heavily and deeper. He seemed to be enjoying it as much as I was. He didn?t stop or pull away when I started to cum but instead he placed his face against my pulsating cumming cock. I had to have shot a big load on his face and lips but he continued to rub it against his rough unshaved face. I remained standing at the hole while he masturbated his own cock I could hear him start to gasp and sigh with pleasure as he came. I wish my mouth was on this married mans hot cock as I had done with the others. I remained at the hole until my hanging cock started to get softer. I pulled away slowly and looked thru the hole to watch him shoot his last load into his hand. He paused then raised his cum filled hand up to the hole for me. I placed my mouth up to the hole while he placed his fingers, dripping with wet cum, into my mouth. This made me hot again.

    His sweet juicy cum was running down his hand to his wrist. He stood next to the hole as he milked down his semi-hard cock. He wiped the last oozing cum from his piss slot placing it on his fingertip to offer to me. I motioned for him to stick his cock into the hole, which he did. His cock was very sensitive after he had just cum and he gasps when I continued to lick and suck on his soft member.

    He had a nice thick cock and it fit well into my mouth. He stood quietly letting me suck on him. I realize I could get another load from his already spent cock as it continued to grow hard in my mouth. A few good movements of my mouth and tongue and he was building up to another orgasm. He started to gasp and tremble with excitement. He then let loose with a deep moan and shot another load into my mouth. This dude was hot and horny. He pulled away slowly after I milked it down again for the second time. He set down on the stool to gather his composure then he whispered to me in the hole.

  6. I don't want to start a holy war here... by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I don't want to start a holy war here, but what is the deal with you Open Source fanatics? I've been sitting here at my freelance gig in front of a Linux box (a P4 3200 w/1024 Megs of RAM) for about 20 minutes now while it attempts to copy a 17 Meg file from one folder on the hard drive to another folder. 20 minutes. At home, on my Athlon 900 running Windows XP, which by all standards should be a lot slower than this Linux box, the same operation would take about 2 minutes. If that.
    In addition, during this file transfer, Mozilla will not work. And everything else has ground to a halt. Even vi is straining to keep up as I type this.

    I won't bore you with the laundry list of other problems that I've encountered while working on various Linux machines, but suffice it to say there have been many, not the least of which is I've never seen a Linux box that has run faster than its Windows counterpart, despite the Linux machine's faster chip architecture. My 486/66 with 8 megs of ram runs faster than this 3200 mhz machine at times. From a productivity standpoint, I don't get how people can claim that Linux is a "superior" OS.

    Open Source addicts, flame me if you'd like, but I'd rather hear some intelligent reasons why anyone would choose to use an Open Source over other faster, cheaper, more stable systems.
