2. Sure.

After all these years, a public holiday just ain't a public holiday, in the US, without some lame-assed and transparent terror scare attempt.

7. I'm betting between Christmas and New Years.

With retail sales remaining relatively flat, the economy cannot risk a pre-Christmas hiccup.

4. Didn't CO just have some?

Let's not push it...

The "War on Christmas" is enough "terra" for me. :P

Hopefully we will all have a peaceful week.

There have been to many crisis lately. I'm hoping for some calm.

ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - A Pakistani-British man suspected of involvement in an al Qaeda plot to blow up U.S.-bound airliners over the Atlantic has escaped from custody in the Pakistani capital, a senior official said on Sunday.

Rashid Rauf escaped on Saturday from outside an Islamabad court where police had escorted him for an extradition hearing.

"We're trying our best to re-arrest him," said Interior Ministry spokesman, Brigadier Javed Iqbal Cheema, speaking more than 20 hours after Rauf's disappearance.

Cheema gave no details on how Rauf escaped but he said the government had set up an inquiry to investigate the incident and report back within 48 hours.
