Makes you wonder what Gaddafi's parents were like, doesn't it? From here: http://www.daralhayat.com/portalartic...

Gaddafi has shown a true talent for foxisms lately - wonder if we should honour his skill by giving him Fred's place until the Libyan people manage to assassinate him?

I've wondered in the past about implementing subcategories. If I'd done it, this guy would definitely get his own subcategory.
    Posted by Wrongfellow on 3 Mar 2011.
Subcategories seems a good idea, but we definitely shouldn't have one devoted to GW Bush - that's sooo 2004.

Oh, yeah, this one's a highly significant moment in Who Invented Foxes history: it's our thousandth quote! Wahey.

You've heard of Moore's Law, right? I'd like to propose Fred's Law: "The number of quotes on Who Invented Foxes increases by a factor of ONE THOUSAND!!!1! every eighteen months."

"What is being said about the Mossad throwing the deadly shark (in the sea) to hit tourism in Egypt is not out of the question, but it needs time to confirm"

There's nothing illegal about it, it's just... illegal.

This reminds me of the famous quote from Keith Hellawell, UK "drugs czar", that "There's a myth that if we legalise a substance it would somehow take the illegality out of it."
    Posted by Wrongfellow on 17 Nov 2010.
That quote deserves a place here in its own right!
