LUCKY THREAD NUMBER:
HOMELAND INSECURITY
Backup electrical systems failed to kick in
A mysterious power failure at Logan Airport that delayed dozens of flights for more than five hours has still not been explained six days later.
Airport officials insist airline security was not compromised during the blackout Monday at Logan International's Terminal E, but backup electrical systems failed to kick in as they are programmed under such circumstances.

From what I have seen, it appears the goblins really want to pull off something. Given past history, they learn from their mistakes.
The article sample cited above reported 14 ME men boarding a single airplane and carrying different components of one device spread among them is a great example of adapting their tactics to our responses.
We need to learn their tactics, and adapt ours.
Example: Supposedly there were air marshalls on the plane, so I would let the Jihadis make the first move, and wait for the air marshalls to ID themselves and initiate their counter-assault. Then I would identify myself as a reinforcement and help them assault through the objective (i.e the terrorists).
Thats why I know you were an excellent leader Exsoldier. You are a natural born tactician.
Disclaimer: I know, I am preaching to the choir to you, but this is for the never militarily trained on the thread, to help them see how a tactical mindset works.

Don't you think
the joker
laughs for you
I've been busier than a frog on a frying pan. Thinking of taking two weeks and basking in the Tidewater area...LOL
The problem is that we're "fighting the last war" (9/11). The Air marshalls have got to be PROACTIVE. There won't be boxcutters again, even though that seems to be what we're prepared for.
I think that's what created TM in the first place.
We take things seriously, some don't.
>> So many people are scared of firearms these days, just showing up with one will cause some major panic. I pretty much guarantee the cops would be on you very quickly. <<
You're right about that. It's a shame. Virginia allows open carry of loaded firearms as well as concealed, but I think you are correct. People would freak out.
Guess I'll deep-six the idea of guarding the polls. Thanks for the advice!
Vacations are good. I'm taking a week of in August to hang w/ friends at their lake house in NC. Gonna be a blast.
I new you were a "walrus" coo coo catchu
Yet, going to the polls being 'supervised' by a UN thug would be a equally intimidating to me.
pingy dingy
Just be thankful you can't hear me singing along :D
Didja see the news about the roadie suitcase that was found in Oz? It had lots of tapes and wax in it. IIRC, there was a studio tape labeled "Abbey Road... Not For Release" on it.
Exactly. You know the deal.
The government has to innovate, instead of being reactive and moving things from the inbox to the outbox and counting days to retirement. Thats going to be the real sea change in this war.
Until it happens, we are just treading water.
Nags Head is great but I like the outer banks..LOL
So in other words you are very grateful we don't use
web cams?
"Let it Be' Released" :) <---That joke?
Or was there really another tape found?
Web cams don't have mikes. I don't care about the cam. I'm just grateful your ears aren't in danger
*looks down* *shuffles feet* *small voice* yes, ma'am...
