Well, at least it's not just me.
Off to vote.
Perhaps I'll be back before this post appears...or disappears and reappears. LOL
Please give us a ping when he is home safe and sound RR. Thanks.
I'll be out of town til Wednesday PM.
I suspect it is the combination of two thing.
1. Extra heavy election and terror related traffic.
2. The Moderators working overtime to prevent trolls from gumming up the works. I suspect that they may even be screening most posts before allowing them on.
GZ, thanks as always for these summaries. We here at TM are well aware of what is really going on out there. But I took the liberty this weekend of copying your last summary and sending it to several associates in Minnesota who are basically clueless and were leaning Kerry. They didn't believe me at our dinner last week of what really is at stake. Of the 8 who I copied on this info, 5 basically said "holy ****" and are leaning Bush. Only 1, and she's left of Kerry, paid no heed.
So thanks for helping me turn a few votes!
Truck Vanished Late Monday Or Early Tuesday
POSTED: 11:07 am EST November 2, 2004 COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Columbus police said Tuesday that they were searching for an American Electric Power truck that was apparently stolen late Monday or early Tuesday.
The truck disappeared from the area of Marion Road and South Champion Avenue, police said.
Police were searching for the truck because it apparently has materials inside that could be hazardous, NBC 4 reported.
The truck has Ohio license plate No. PBU-8474. The van is tan-colored, 22 feet long, and has an AEP logo on it, police said.
For one thing ... I also get the impression that OBL thinks 50,000 people died on 9/11.
I do not think his reference was to Bush abondoning 50,000 dead people, but 50,000 people in need that were AT the WTC that day. Those were the people (including those 3000+ that died) that needed the direction and leadership of their president that day, in his eyes. Not one who was reading to children.
Do I believe that in Bush, no, but just suggesting an alternative viewpoint on what his meaning was.
I am humbled. Glad to have thawed out some folk in Minnesocold.
Missing truck....
Thanks for the info flutters. Hope they find it.
Folks, this may be a long week. Keep your gas tanks full, have some extra cash on hand, and keep your 3 day kits close. Especially in the red states.

An announcement on Abu Dhabi television said the 86-year-old sheikh had died on Tuesday evening. The ruler of the emirate of Dubai, Sheikh Maktoum bin Rashid, will act as president of the seven emirate group until a new overall ruler is chosen. Sheikh Zayed had been president of the UAE since its birth in 1971. He was known to be in poor health. |

I'm watching the news closely for anything out of the ordinary. I'll report back with any followups.
Thanks flutters. Much appreciated!
I've seen nothing unusual or suspicious in Reston or Leesburg or anyplace in between. It's been quite. Will report anything if I'm able.
Just trying to catch up...no horrific updates yet, it seems, yet I am still leery of what may well transpire this afternoon/evening.
the Hoover Dam,
yup- recall those pics last year?
Well, that would fall in line with the threats made to those countries.
IPN reporting suspicious device in Queens, NY. Nothing further.
My posts are taking about 20-30mins to show up....
Listening to the psychologist (Bloom) who wrote about Osama's nuclear capabilities on coast to coast last night- he was talking about nuke hits on DC and NYC.
