Dear Taliban, Mr. Bin Laden, Mr. Arafat, and Mr. Hussein, et al:

We are pleased to announce that we unequivocally accept your challenge to an old-fashioned game of whoop-ass. Now that we understand the rule that there are no rules, we look forward to playing without them for the first time.

Since this game is a winner-take-all, we unfortunately are unable to invite you to join us at the victory celebration. But rest
assured that we will toast you -- LITERALLY.

While we will admit that you are
off to an impressive lead, it is however now our turn at the plate. By the way, we will be playing on your diamond now... Batter up!
