Zap - that's the first thing I thought. What kinda pussy plays cricket with a tennis ball? Hey, George, we are not fooled!

He's got his eyes closed. What a pussy.

The Pakistani bowler obviously doing his imitation of Don Drysdale.

Little Boots plays cricket as well as he tosses a baseball.

Well he does look a little effeminate.

As usual he's got his eye on the ball.

Is he getting fat or is that a bullet-proof vest he's wearing?

Iamcoyote, by god it is a tennis ball. The cricket ball itself, is made of cork wound with string, covered with leather. I suspect this is just another phony picture op like all the rest.

AlanDownUnder, is that a trick question? hee hee

Ditto, he clearly has his eye on the ball.

The curious thing is that nobody mentioned if he actually hit the damn thing! I would say he did not.

Is it me, or does Bush always look like the guy who comes to repair the copy machine?

Cricket-with-a-tennis-ball is everywhere in Pakistan. It adapts very nicely to small vacant lots in a way that real cricket simply can't.

Plus, really, if he got clocked with a cricket ball, that would probably get rid of his last smidgen of motor skills.

Who says a tennis ball can't be lethal? How many million anthrax spores could be lurking among the fibers of the tennis sphere? Bet the secret service didn't check for that one.

Not as elaborate an assination plan as sending Castro an exploding cigar, but watch for heads to roll if Bush develops a persistant cough.

A poster at Firedoglake named Cozumel discovered something fun:
Go to Google, type in the word "asshole" and hit the "I'm feel Lucky" button.

Yhis one's even better than failure.

This is exactly how he runs his administration: With his eyes closed, swinging at air!

Heh, thanks Herbal.

I love Jim's Big Ego. "Angry White Guy" is another song worth listening to.

While swinging a cricket bat, a large yellow tumor popped out of Bush's left ear, providing a possible explanation for his poor decision making ability.
