HOW YOU DOIN’, MORGANA? When is the court stuff for Alma (is that her name?)
okay, so it’s looking like all the drone strikes have gotten down into the low-A ball level of AQ’s Minor Leagues of Bomb Making...
I’ll add this, just like the tens of other posts on this thread....
BUSH’S FAULT(GHWB THAT IS)!!!!!
There was a white man changing his shirt not far from this scene.
you forgot “another attack thwarted....”
---Update---
It all started while airport ground crews were removing luggage from a flight that just arrived from Amsterdam.
According to the Houston Airport System, it was around 2:15 p.m. Tuesday when a “pop” was heard and smoke could be seen coming from a suitcase. Crews had already offloaded the luggage and placed it on the tarmac when the smoke was seen.
While no injuries or damages were reported, several agencies, including the Houston Fire Department, were called to the scene.
Shortly before 4 p.m., police rigged the blue-silver luggage and detonated it on the tarmac, scattering what appeared to be clothes on the ground. Officers then combed through the contents of the bag, but it was not immediately clear if they determined a cause for the earlier smoke.
The flight number and airline on which the luggage was carried were not confirmed, and no further information was available from airport officials.
Really nice route today. Only a few very small bumps possible over Kentucky. Also, skies are mostly clear from aircraft to the deck. Enjoy your flight.

Sounds to me like something in the luggage popped open. That's hardly an "explosion".
Yes, AG Holder will be pleased to report that we thwarted another attack.
Maybe this luggage incident will snap Contessa out of her early morning funk. After all, it could be a balding middle aged white guy this time!............./s
From day one.

Perfect..
Libs must really love a flight from IAH to DCA, or vice versa...heh.heh.
An American Belsan like incident is too terrible to comprehend but even in a country as ruthless as Russia there is opposition to the operations against the Chechen militias. I’m sure for a little while there would be a backlash but think on this... what would you have said if I told you in October of 2001 we would have some of the plotters of 9/11 in custody and not have executed them yet by 2010?
LOL!
I’m waiting for someone to say, “It was likely a can of hairspray or shaving cream.”
Be nice and clean
Shave everyday and you'll always look keen.
I miss them and the safety we once had.
