I heard they canceled some flights because of passenger names matching some of the hijackers. Were they these flights?

Maybe they'll car bomb a college football stadium? Maybe they'll use a small plane to ram into a refinery? Who knows, I hope we are prepared!

“watch list” of 223 people.

Just watch for people with .223's were they're not supposed to be.

We can live without flying at all this weekend. Maybe they should ground all the planes and mess up their plans again. I think I feel better when I see no planes in the sky.

Imagine an entire stadium attacking five terrorists whose car bomb was a dud? Peas on earth...

Seriously, this worries me. These folks are arrogant and have ego's. They want to PROVE how smart they are, "calling" their shots. I fear this isn't over.

In a dramatic development, three Arab airport workers in Detroit were arrested after FBI agents found them in a house with handwritten sketches of an airport, aircraft and runways. They had a notebook containing information about the “American base in Turkey”, “Alia Airport” in Jordan and the “American foreign minister”, legal documents state. The three, Ahmed Hanna, 33, Karim Koubriti, 23, and Farouk Ali-Halmoud, 21, from Morocco and Algeria, worked at Detroit Metropolitan Airport preparing food for airlines.

Wire these d!cks up for sound already.

Those are what the kooks already did, with slight variation maybe, but same MO.

Carry an assault weapon in your trunk this weekend, where ever you go.

No more wearing Red White and Blue ribbons, I say we all start wearing ribbons made of bacon. And is having a pork chop in your pocket considered a concealed weapon?

If you live in a warm muggy (not MUGGER) environment, as I do...you're at higher risk for a chemical attack. Here in south Florida, a SOMAN or SARIN attack spread by say a crop duster or just a nice sized industrial fire extinguisher would hang over the area like a wet blanket with all the evaporation qualities of motor oil...able to kill and keep on killing for days even weeks, depending on the agent and means of dispersal as well as the dilution ratio.

I CANNOT believe that local, state or even Federal emergency managers aren't holding emergency DRILLS! If you don't rehearse what and how you're going to react to such an emergency, you won't see the potential glitches in the plan if you even have one! There are special precautions which MUST be taken in the event of a nerve agent attack. You've got to set up DECONTAMINATION STATIONS with plenty of hot soapy water available, but you've also got to make sure this water is not allowed to run off and absorb into the ground or it will contaminate the water supply. You have to make sure you have adequate supplies of the drug ATROPINE on hand for treating the symptoms of the agent so victims can be stabilized for hospital transport. If atropine is not administered within 15 min of exposure...you're pretty much dead.

'Course in the case of PURE SOMAN, you have just nine seconds from initial exposure until death. That's the "rate of action" for this nerve agent...and you'll die barfing up your lungs....in pure agony.
