Gosh, I hope everyone is more vigilant at this weekend's games, wherever they are--but especially in Norman, because I keep thinking of how much like the bombings in London this all is. I'm guessing there were four guys to the team--but note that's a guess and not reporting--and also noting that they used the same kind of explosives. Pray they don't make a repeat performance as they did in London!

Caller to show saying that too much money will be lost with the football games if this gets out.

Rick Roberts: Went to OU himself, says in post-911 world, people need to know this, and need to demand answers.

RR: If you have evidence that the sky is falling, you might want to let people know so they can get out of the way.

Caller from OKC: was at the game, large explosion, sounded like artillery shell, in 2nd q, rocked the stadium, nobody did anything.

RR: how many stories have you heard about this? Caller, not many on a national level, but a flurry locally.

Caller saying Boren's office is spearheading the investigation, and in his interests to keep it quiet.

RR: the silent majority can no longer afford the luxury of remaining silent. We have to demand answers.

I have a question about today's news conference. I missed most of it but caught a small part when the President was talking about the bird flu and the military type quarantines.

Does anyone wonder why he brought that up today? I thought this was about Miers nomination. Are they expecting this flu to begin transferring from human to human this year!!??

This scares me more than terrorism. I can hide from terrorism for the most part, but this type of contagious flu will go everywhere. We are too PC to stop people from coming into our country from areas infected.

Do we need to stock up on even more supplies, say like about 6 months worth?

Interestingly, the subhost on the Savage show just mentioned that someone named Bruce Newsome of the Rand (?) Institute, I think, who is a terrorism expert, said that the bombings in London are a template for what's coming here.

Channel 5 just reported the part about trying to buy ammonium nitrate--interviewed the clerk. So some stuff is starting to come out! This guy said he did NOT believe the father's claim that it must have been an accident!

I was just listening to him. He's the only one I've heard bring up the discussion since Saturday when it happened. Maybe it will pick up some traction elsewhere now. And he's right - we deserve answers given the war on terror and all (oh, I forgot, the media doesn't talk about that anymore.)

But it's more effective to keep this incident quiet while they investigate and set up traps to capture any co-conspirators.

Oh sure, and I would expect the FBI and the various enforcement agencies to try to keep this under wraps. That's their job.

The media, or so they tell me, has a different job and I think that this story should have had some legs. It was at least as important as the boat accident in NY, and perhaps, it may be a turning point in our history.

The totality of the silence is a story in and of itself. It tells me that the media's roll in society isn't what they are telling us it is. But of course, we all knew that.

You know, I was listening to WLS radio from Chicago this afternoon, the host Roe Conn was asking Ron Magers who is a tv anchor in Chicago about this very thing. Why is this being talked about now?

Magers said the Pres has mentioned it a number of times lately, as have others, not sure now who he said.

He said they're now talking about the military controlling and quarantining large areas of population in the US, so I think we had all better be prepared to shelter in place for some time, it sounds like.

This weekend would be a good time for them to go to OU's stadium, since it'll be empty. OU plays Texas in Dallas at the Cotton Bowl. It'll be nationally televised, hopefully just for the football.

I'm more concerned about high school games. Security is basicly to keep kids from fighting, not searching bags, and I can imagine how bad a bomb under a bleecher full of kids would be.

MSM is MIA! Our local media is being held back because they cannot get anyone to source on the record. Everything is off the record so they won't go public but gradually they are finding the information and reporting/printing that info.
