Not even for dog catcher.

In other news, reports that another hotel burned down around Strauss-Kahn were met with surprise from Kahn, who alleges he had no idea those were flames consuming his bedroom: "Ze hotel burned down? Mon Dieu! I had no idea the smoke was from fire! This is terreeble! Was anyone hurt?"

Prosecutors, investigators, and other authorities during a press conference in front the latest pile of smoldering rubble at which Strauss-Kahn stayed defended their inability: "We do not have a "smoking gun" linking Kahn to this latest conflagration."

CIQ, FOSS, Speech

The soundtrack to this Caindawg production is gonna suck, though.

Just saying.
