Howdy folks! Just checking in. Every thing is quiet, peaceful, and normal here.
Please be extra vigilant folks. With Easter this weekend, I'm sure our enemies would love to pull off an attack.
FNC Shephard Smith has a guy on now discussing Al-Queda linked groups traing scuba divers.

Divers could be used to sabotage nuclear plants near rivers (such as TMI); they could also be used to place mines. Interestingly, some time ago it was discussed on TM that a number of mines from North Korea had "gone missing."

ENER - BP refinery: No doubt this is just a coincidence
No doubt this is just a coincidence
Still, I couldn't help but notice.
This story just came in:
TEXAS CITY, Texas (AP) - All but one of the 1,800 or so oil refinery workers have been accounted for after overnight search efforts following the thunderous blast that killed 14 and injured more than 100, officials said Thursday....
BP refinery records indicate the one unaccounted-for worker checked out and left the refinery, but no one has heard from him, Parus said. Those who died were all contractors for Los Angeles-based field services company J.E. Merritt, he said....
This one is from last July:
HOUSTON (Reuters) - Law enforcement officials said on Monday they are looking for a man seen taking pictures of two refineries in Texas City, Texas....
The man, described as white with dark hair, was seen taking pictures outside the refineries, all located on the same highway, at about 5 p.m. CDT on Saturday, said Bruce Clawson, emergency management and homeland security director for Texas City....
"This is based on the idea that al Qaeda does its homework," Clawson said. "That's not to say we don't have enough home-grown idiots already who might want to do something."
And this one from January 2004:
While FBI, Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Customs, the U.S. Coast Guard, state police and local law enforcement sources are publicly downplaying terrorism fears in the shooting of a guard at a BASF Corp. ammonia terminal in Freeport, Texas, some of those same sources are telling Joseph Farah's G2 Bulletin, off the record, they strongly suspect the guard stumbled into a terrorism reconnaissance operation....
Robbie House, the guard, questioned the driver of the truck about why he was in the vicinity of a large, multi-story ammonia tank. He told police the truck driver explained that he was taking pictures of it. When the guard turned to radio for help, the driver pulled out a handgun and shot House in the shoulder....
Of course, this explosion was most likely just an accident, but the vulnerability of the refineries has long been noted.
