1. BORING
Sooo predictable. There'll be at least one a day until November. Can't they at least do something snappy like the Brits?

8. When did the land of the free & home of the brave
become such a nation of pansies?

What I hate most are the morans who spout that they have nothing to hide & will give up their freedom if the government will keep them safe from the evil Arab boogeyman. I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Laugh that they think this incompetent administration could possibly keep them safe, even if it wanted to, or cry because these same people will drive 85 mph on a freeway full of potholes while talking on their cell phone & drifting into the next lane. Yet they worry more about being blown up at the local mall. :wtf:

I can tell you who I'm more afraid of! ;)

5. Planes get diverted all the time for reasons other than terror
If it were "terror", they'd go to a smaller airport.

I know, they fly the damn thing over my hous on approach to Bangor.
