Alcohol does link to man boobs. Or moobs. Ugh. I never thought I'd be discussing this here. Anyway, alcohol has a certain effect where it basically dulls your whole cognitive ability. It also stops you from feeling full. When you're at a buffet, and you're intoxicated, you'll tend to eat more, because your body isn't feeling that you're stuffed. Over time, it gets you eating more and more. Multiply it over a dozen buffets and you're getting fat.
Add another couple of dozen and guys start to grow boobs.
It's all because of th excess fat. I'm pretty sure there's some effect of alcohol involving increasing the concentration of triglycerides in the blood. So that adds to the boob-growing, too.
Oh, and if you couldn't help it and Googled "Jack Black shirtless"... I claim no responsibility for mental damage. Or any other kind of damage, really.

Anyhow, this whole business about a terrorist leader on the loose is mighty interesting. One must wonder how he escaped in the first place. With great effort, I tried not to conjure images of him phasing through the walls, or freezing time and walking out of the place. It didn't work. So I'm just giving up on being able to imagine something without evolved abilities, The Force, conspiracy theories, or Gregory House.
However, I am fortunate enough to have enough RAM in my noggin to think of other ways he could have escaped. Two scenarios immediately come to mind. Either he had outside help, or his detainers slipped up somehow. Or a combination of both. Since the authorities(cough, conspiracy, cough) did not release any information other than that he escaped and is now running around screaming "For Great Jihad!!!!", we don't have a clue on what actually happened in that detention facility.
I mean, this is the real world. You can't Splinter Cell your way out of a prison. No one has that kind of skill. Except maybe those bionically enhanced secret agents that the government doesn't want us to know about... Gasp! Hey! Who are you, the one wearing the tuxedo?

Due to the lack of information, all we have are our imaginations. Perhaps the guard had to take a piss and mister terrorist took the opportunity.
Okay, great. Now my mind is churning out ideas involving the fourth spacial dimension and wormholes. I guess I could stay on this for a long time and never come to a conclusion.
Anyway, Singapore's law enforcement system is good. People need not be afraid. He'll be caught, sooner or later.
"Now we'll all have to wonder if the next dark skinned guy you see coming up the alley and staring at you with red rimmed eyes and a sinister smile is going to whack you and thrash you"
That, ma'am, is the devil. The terrorist looks like an overweight middle-aged man exhausted from his nine hours at the office.
Paranoia, much?
