I DON'T!

I hope it's what the machine thought it was .. I want the terrorists to know we are more aware of this stuff than they thought. Perhaps it would cause them to pause and design another plan .. whereby we would have the opportunity to find them first.

Why do you assume it was a false alarm? "Situation under control" doesn't tell you either way.

probably just a GPS or something.

Sure isn't a bomb.

When was the last time one of these things actually turned out to be a bomb anyway....probably hasn't been an actual bomb in 10 years

Nah...they save that for my grandmother. Meanwhile, my Persian brother in law flew from Orlando to Newark with (I kid you not) razor blades in his pocket. He actually didn't realize they were there until he got to NJ. He'd left them in his jacket, which he hadn't worn in a while, after scraping window stickers off at the car dealership one night.

It was a demolition expert travelling with some equipment. He was cleared thru Cincinnati but they never forwarded the clearance to JFK. He has been allowed to fly on to Paris but his equipment is still here.

Meanwhile, the trucks with unknown loads continue to enter from the corrupt country of Mexico.

Hopefully, one day they don't find a 40 foot trailer parked in Fort Worth Texas with something more interesting than 300 illegal aliens packed into it.

We always get one from there from my aunt for Christmas. For as long as I can remember.

They are pretty yummy. I don't think I have ever had any other fruitcake, so I've never quite understood all the fruitcake jokes come Christmas time.

I like fruitcake too, but you can have the cheese wheel.
