Plane Carrying Viruses Crashes in Canada
Oct 06 6:57 PM US/Eastern
WINNIPEG, Manitoba
A cargo plane carrying small amounts of flu virus crashed on railway tracks near Winnipeg's city center Thursday, killing the pilot but missing buildings and vehicles, authorities said.
The research samples of frozen influenza and herpes viruses were destroyed in the crash and ensuing fire along with other freight, Federal Express spokeswoman Karen Cooper said.
Maybe this is all a plot by Muslim cabbies to get NYers to take more taxis!

AMTRAK Side of PENN STATION in NYC shut down...Suspicious Package.
(also Philly)
My comment was in bad taste,...sorry
Which might be exactly what the damn terrorists want. Yom Kippur is coming up. Look at the recent threatcon, we have a possible attack in Norman, OK, we have possible incidents in Philly and Penn, both are "suspicious package" nature. But the intell is still there, and it's got the pro's concerned. Something's up. Al-Queda does have a historical facination with trains (Madrid and London) so it seems on the face, Why not?
Then again, this could be an effort to draw police resources away from synogogues in the Jewish parts of Brooklyn. This damn stuff can have one jumping at bloody shadows. In any case, stay observant. Ramadan and Yom Kippur intersect this year, so does the anniversery of Bush ordering strikes on Afghanistan. Jihadihamster trifecta...
In any case, YMMV.
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Part of New York's Pennsylvania Station was sealed off on Friday morning, closing the portion of the station where Amtrak trains operate, police said.

The precaution came one day after New York officials said they had intelligence that the city's subway system was under a credible and specific threat of possible attack.
A policeman on the scene said only, "We are checking something out."
Commuters could still enter the subway at the station.

Well, don't feel bad, because bad taste makes us laugh, and maybe we have to laugh. That's a famous American (and NY) tradition. It's our equivalent of the stiff upper lip.

Do yourself a favor and lay off the caffine.
>>They seem to like this number, 19<<
Something with the number 9 and/or 1, like 9 11.
Possibly...Chapter 9 of the Quran?

A belated welcome to FR! We love converts. (I read your page).
My sympathies for all the stuff you have to deal with at Penn State, but stand strong and tall as a college conservative. My daughter went there from 1994 to 1998 and it was unbelievable, the tales she had to tell about the pagans who populate that place.
BTW, don't go to any games in the stadium this season.
About the games--I was referring to the "other" terrorist targets--college football stadiums. The kid who blew himself up outside the OU stadium last Saturday night was NOT a lone suicide, as some would have us believe.
But that's a long story. There are many threads about it.
They are referenced at the top of the TOPICS page.
