Ravenous news dogs
August 11, 2006 – 8:46 am
It’s the only thing that’s been really on my mind, so I’m just gonna throw it out there. I resisted it yesterday.
So, I’m waiting for more details on the terror plot that has been screaming across every major news outlet, “Watch us! Watch us! We’ve got news tickers and a blinking yellow light letting you know in 2 second intervals the status of our current terror threat.”
Good God, I hope they blow something up soon! I’m gonna smoke some crack while I wait this out.
I’m waiting for the details that aren’t so hot for news outlets. Like it was a gerbil and a lost Canadian. For me it’s a knee jerk reaction to the eventual politicizing of this most recent threat.
So, “Thanks Scotland Yard. Our guys have their heads up their butts right now.”

I like the fear-based “no liquids on planes” reaction.
I’m sorry, I can’t have a fucking BOTTLE OF WATER that I bought PAST SECURITY??
Fuck you guys.
Why don’t you ban drawstrings in childrens’ hoodies while you’re at it.

Well. One was released without any charges already. I think what develops in the next couple of days will be interesting. Afterall, it is an election year to the south of you.

I’m not even done reading this but I just laughed out loud so loudly that I think I freaked out my coworker in the next office ’cause she just put her head ’round the doorway and said “Are you O.k.?”
Just thought I would mention that.
