Yeah, but squirrels causing two huge blackouts?

Oh well.

At this point I have so little trust in guv or media (but I repeat myself) that it’s hard to know what’s true without reading a bunch of stuff and sort of averaging it out...

Threat from Pakistan related to the other thread/s about rented trucks/bombs/bridges?

Or something else?

IF not severed, but interuppted, then the high-tension line from AZ to CA failed due to extremely large concentrations of extraterrestrial gas.

Unless, perhaps, squirrels fall out of clear blue sky in CA. Its CA - I’ve heard stranger things occur there than that - and yet nobocy things THOSE things are weird.

Wondering if blackout is in place and listening is SOP for the moment? Do not know. My apology, another unknown as far as current procedures. Best my and all not knowing.

Origination of threat is what my understanding is. Special emphasis ... unknown and possibly a rumor.

At work this evening - if professional charity fund-raising is considered such - the satellite radio piped through the overhead speakers was broadcasting Radar Love with Oh-Bummers speech mixed in simultaneously.

Several people commented that should be SOP. However, NONE of the darker skinned employe’s thought it amusing.

I believe the jury’s out on that verdict.

Absolutely. Lets not jump to conclusions.

After all: terrosism has been unequivocally been ruled out.

lol ... I have as much trouble as the next person when I hear that phrase, terrorism has been unequivocally been ruled out. Especially in light of the past couple of days, and many times before also.

Roger that. Thanx for presenting that tid-bit.

: Now we can go about our meaningless live with aplomb.

This just proves that hysteria is a bad place to be in; the very reasonable conjecture of unusually high concentrations of extraterrestrial gas has been ruled out: it was just some-guy that err'd at some namelss substation somewhere between CA and AZ (which incidently aren't talking on account of AZ's draconian immigration policy).

Never mind me (what do I konw). You are now returned to your bread and circuses already in progress....

This country is like the “house-divided” that Lincoln warned us about... conservatives should stick together and seek out other conservatives, no matter how few in other states.

It seems no one wants to enact reasonable solutions today, it’s all about the ‘feel good solution’ - that is not a solution at all!
