of Hercules was to kill the two-headed Hydra,
a serpent-like underworld beast.
The problem here was that each time one head was
cut off, two heads grew back.

So Saddam is dead and buried, you say ?

How many Saddams to make a village?
Lakhanow, India | January 10, 2007 12:01:13 AM IST
There''s not much to picking out a name for new sons in
the village of Lakhanow in northern India -- all the boys
are being named Saddam Hussein.
The BBC says the name hardly was ever used before the
first U.S. war against Iraq in 1991 but now there are more
than 20 in Lakhanow and 100 others in 27 adjoining villages,
mostly populated by Sunni Muslims.
Since Saddam''s execution last month, Lakhanow villagers
have decided to name all newborn boys Saddam Hussein.
This is our way to pay tribute to our leader. We want to carry
on his legacy here at least in our village, Ejaj Alam told the BBC.
Villagers admit, however, having so many Saddam Husseins in
one place can be a bit daunting.
In the playground we have Saddam Hussein running after
Saddam Hussein, behind Saddam Hussein who is ahead of
Saddam Hussein but too far from Saddam Hussein ...
it can all get a little confusing, he said.
