03 Feb 04 - 08:26 AM (#1108080) Subject: BS: That Terror Alert Thing From: GUEST Ever notice how the terror alert gets elevated any time the news cycle is dominated by news that is damaging to the Shrub White House? They are having a terrible week, after all. Have to order that WMD investigation. All sides of the aisle and punditry balked at the budget. Cheney can't seem to keep all the "truth tellers" in the corral, discipline is slipping badly... Better ground some flights from France and have the FBI plant some ricin in Frist's office, and take the heat off, eh? |

Perhaps we ought to get some US flights cancelled by suggesting that there are likely to be members of the Hull9 Liberation Army on them - after all I don't think that the US checking procedures include a curry detector. |

(Well, Bobert, they did tell you that if you see your neighbor loading 55 gallon cans of kerosene and shovelin manure into the back of the rental truck, that you should probably report it to someone.) Okay, I'm sorry... Yeah the Wes Ginny Slide Rule has informed me that if there *is* a code orange alert and your neighbor is turning a rental truck into a mobile bomb, you should report it. Bobert |

Guess it's time to hide a certain houseplant again...... LTS |
