Got caught in a traffic jam this morning and started thinking what I could do if something close went BOOM. I had no good options.
Published: Oct 5, 2005 WASHINGTON (AP) - Entrances to the White House from Pennsylvania Avenue, a historic Washington thoroughfare, were briefly closed on Wednesday and workers already inside were told to remain in the building.
The shutdown lasted about 20 minutes. U.S. Secret Service officers on the scene said the incident was prompted by discovery of a suspicious package.
I keep thinking about some of the research we were doing several months back where we discussed a drawing of what appeared to be a football stadium. Also recall the statement from either one of the tapes or writings on a jihad site (I can't remember exactly which) where they claimed we would be watching the attack on TV. These big college football games are televised to a wide audience THIS month. I can't shake the thought that the OU event was supposed to be big and that maybe more campuses were involved. I think we still need to be very wary of islamic students studying here as well as the Jihad Johnnies.
