They don't want anyone to know what's going on.

[Chena]

I've wondered the same thing. Perhaps they don't want us to know about these threats and/or whether they were indeed very serious matters, because they are protecting the travel industry?

[bonfire]

I wouldn't go on a cruise, for many reasons, for all the tea in China.

[mewzilla]

It just smells.

There's a lot of that going around today :)

[CindyDawg]

I don't like it at all but if they don't have to, LE isn't going to tell us anything. I guess they have their reasons. No telling how many near misses we have had. With stink in NY, dead birds in Austin and now this, I hope we just end today with a "move along folks"

[Howlin]

You're right.

Chemical leaks in Sugarland.

Dead birds in Texas.

Smells in NYC.

And now this.

[mewzilla]

...for all the tea in China.

And all the Immodium I could carry....

[bonfire]

I turned my TV off as we won't get the straight scoop anyway.

[CindyDawg]

A tanker is on fire? My TV is off.

[spectre]

It's really been an ODD day, Cindy.

I recorded "The Stand" yesterday..LOL.

[processing please hold]

Damn, that's three incidents today alone. Something's not right.

[sageb1]

Thanks for the ping. Watching FOX (yes, even though it's Shep)

[mewzilla]

OTOH, it could just be one big, smelly coinkydink....

Here's hoping :)

This reminds me of a story about the former USSR. An elderly employee in a sawmill asked his boss whether he could take home sawdust. After some back and forth the boss agreed and provided him the necessary paperwork to get past the guardhouse. Every time the employee went past the guardhouse, a guard would go through the sawdust in a wheelbarrow to make certain nothing was being stolen. When the elderly employee retired and was leaving for the last time, the guard asked him what he was stealing and the employee pointed to the wheelbarow.

[processing please hold]

Sorry, make that four.

[mewzilla]

Did anyone ever find out what made that stink in NYC?

[Fitzcarraldo]

CNN pipeline - the ship appears to be preparing to leave the dock - they are casting off some lines.

[bonfire]

I'll take Shep over that weekend guy who SHOUTS through the tv!

[SlowBoat407]

Would that cause them to close airspace?

For one thing, it prevents news helicopters and other curious people from getting photos or otherwise observing what's happening on the ground there.
