Qaddaffi's one good decision.
"They describe the volatile Libyan leader as rarely without the companionship of ‘his senior Ukrainian nurse,’ described as a ‘voluptuous blonde.’ " —New York Times
Qaddafi is not the most popular guy.
I’ve heard him called dangerous or goofy or worse.
But my estimation of him has gone up:
The man keeps in tow a "Ukrainian nurse."
"Voluptuous"—that’s how this nurse is described.
Well, sure, but there’s nothing in that I find sinister.
We all feel the need of a treatment at times.
How smart to have someone quite close to administer!
