Just slightly off topic ...

What's amazing is that CNN, FOXNEWS, MSNBC, etc., all have dropped Lebanon/Israel like a hot potato. Iraq? Forgettaboutit!

I swear, this is the only place where people seem to be able to pay attention to more than one thing at a time.

This is a date that has been much discussed as a big deal day by many people who follow the islamic terrorist mindset- it is also the day that MadMood told the president he would have his answer for him regarding Iran's nukes...

I'll be happy to wake up on August 23 to a blue sky and everything normal.

Yes, even what passes for normal around here.

It's all relative, I guess. ;-)

I was just coming here to find out of this thread had been deserted for the "plot that was foiled" thread, if there is just one.

I know the local talk radio shows have been wall-to-wall that subject...

Ironic that THEY are saying things today..that we have been talking about for a long time, here.

Like Chavez, Iran-Iraq-Al-queda connections...

"this is the only place where people seem to be able to pay attention to more than one thing at a time."

That's certainly been Fox's problem as long as I remember: news alerts breaking in on the last news alert to tell you the same thing - until interrupted by a car chase.

On the other hand, might give Israel a slight bit of shadow to break things on a major scale.

Uh, I don't think I'm an off topic whiner -- been known to throw in a few OT remarks myself. Like now. But, some of us DO have to work at jobs that take all our concentration all or most of the day, aside from a spare couple minutes at lunch if lucky. Then it's hard to catch up later, esp. if the better half has a bucket full of "honey-do's". I guess I'm just saying OT comments can be overdone.

Speaking of the job, I'd like to keep it -- see y'all later and thanks for keeping FR going.

God forbid there should be a car chase in Los Angeles or a missing blond-headed, blue-eyed, high school cheerleader.
