"Okay...I changes the channel...CNN was doing yet another story about Qana...blech"

CNN digging themselves deeper into bed with Nasrullah.

There will be a price to pay for their refusal to engage their brains, and it gets more expensive with every hour that they continue to puff this Qana charade, 48 hours after any nitwit can see it's bogus.

From Jerusalem Post:

"In pre-dawn raids, Israeli fighter jets made 24 over-flights in less than an hour over the southern suburb of Ouzai, local media reported. Lebanon's independent New TV aired footage of huge fires raging against the night sky in several locations.

The attacks on Ouzai, a predominantly Shi'ite Muslim area, were the first since fighting between Hizbullah and Israel began 24 days ago. At daybreak New TV reported two additional strikes on the area, airing footage of smoke billowing from buildings."

--"Where is the humanity? Why are these massacres being committed against civilians?" asked Naim Raqa, the head of the Lebanese Civil Defense unit in the nearby village of Jawaya, who was assisting in the rescue operation.

"I had to watch it twice in a row..."

SO DID I! lol

I think it was you who said recently you don't watch much TV, just streams on the web. If so, you're like me in that regard;-)

You can download youtube stuff btw..for anyone interested, there is a firefox extension that makes it quite easy.

Also the newer, superb open source Media Player Classic with the FFDSHOW filters will play .FLVs like a dream. You can also convert them to avi and such with a free utility from RIVA.

Get on your fave search engine and look around...if anyone needs help feel free to ask.

I can believe the threat from the ferries. Although there are lots of cars traveling on them every day, there are huge numbers of "walk-ons" as well and most carry backpacks, etc. I vividly remember several bomb threats on those ferries shortly after 9-11. It's quite common to see the walk-ons running to catch the ferry before it takes off-and who's going to screen them?

My kids actually bought ice cream off of one of the suspects arrested in Everett after 9-11 as well. This is the same town the latest terrorist was living in prior to murdering and injuring those ladies in Seattle last week.

My guess is he was drunk. Some of these guys look like they had former jobs running the Tilt-a-Whirl at a traveling carny. LOL

And you're right- when the sun shines there (aka sunbreaks,) there is nothing more spectacular in nature.(meanwhile, I actually had moss growing in the sunroof on my car. ;-)) I was always amazed that I could see whales migrating, raccoons, quail and seagulls all within hundreds of feet of one another.

Very interesting! Thanks for going to the trouble of finding the article. Hoping to get thanks in here before the mods close the thread. It was a long day, my puter has been very slow.

:-) It's actually a play on the fact that I was a nervous wreck over the Clinton doings when I first started posting here in '96. (Changed the format of the spelling later), and I do all sorts of work with fabric and thead, so my favorite tools are pins and needles.

Never did voodoo, I'd worry too much about the karmic 'blow back.' lol

Some slow night, I'll tell you why I gave up alcohol for 4 years, 2 months and 17 days. ;-)
