Let's keep a live commentary thread going again today. The FBI Tip Line #1-888-324-9800.
All seems quiet since yesterday's news the shooter may target children specifically. It was released on various news outlets the shooter's 3-page letter to police was in broken English and threatened extreme violence. Police announced an electronic transfer of $10m as requested by the shooter was not possible but other options for transfer remain open. No one seriously believes police will actually give the shooter $$, but police are trying to keep a dialogue open with the shooter in an effort to capture this monster.

Well, take care if you go out tomorrow. I think this whole thing could really blow up into something really big. Thanks. I have to go to work tomorrow, and the grocery store, and the gas station. Sigh. Of course, if I don't get to bed, I won't wake up in time to get to work. Wonder if I can call in scared?
CNN talking about Camp Ground Zero and tying it to terrorists.

Hey, sounds like this guy could be next in line for California Poet Laureate! He'll be appointed by acclamation.

Whoa - Isn't Camden were the Al Queda Hijackers and the original WTC bombers were based?
And what is Rita going on about Aryan Brotherhood-Al Queda links now? Could this be the link to bring McVeigh and OKC into the mix too.

Well, IMO, there is no way that this sniper, who has been in such control all along, and been dictating the pase of events would demand that Moose quote a line that was so defeatist. Just doesn't make any sense. I don't see our guy as the defeatist type. Not after what he has accomplished. Not after he delared that he was "god". A "god" doesn't declare defeatism. Just too screwy. It has to be code. It has to me some cryptic message. But to who/whom (too tired to remember which to use)?

Yeah - I think it is creepy too.... was just on the phone chatting with brother Ramius, who still on his way home. I asked him to stop by in Tacoma and take a picture of the hole in the ground where the stump was, but I don't think he will. ;~D
Now I am hundreds of posts behind.... Can't even try to catch up. I am gonna go lay down. My head is gonna explode this night has been so strange....
We have traveled through some portal into Bizzaro World.

ALSO note how he said the word "we" have other options..."we" was stressed..

For some reason, this just feels like it has to do with 9/11 more now than it did this morning.
I'm off to hit the hay folks.. You keep up the good work.. g'nite all!!

peter and the wolf has a duck and a noose
To: commish; Howlin
Just wanted to note that Fox News mentioned that they were the "exclusive" source for the information on the fact that the credit card the $10M is supposed to go to came from a liquor store holdup in Alabama. Then I log in here, and you had posted it 20 minutes earlier!!! AND, thanks to Howlin I guess, Rita and the gang started on the Marion/AQ connection.
Fox News MUST have an analyst that lurks here and grabs info. There's no doubt.

"Probably several before daybreak."I pray not. But I can feel the EVIL, too.
To: Letitring
in tonight's late press conference. I wish I had a transcript..all the new chanels get them.
To: commish
Think of the possibilities here folks.... this lead could tie up and combine the sniper, terrorist cells, OKC, etc.. AND using the sentence: "We caught the sniper like a duck in a noose." includes "west nile....." Yup, it's late.... going to say prayers and go to sleep......
To: commish
I believe so and yes I think maybe something like this
I just can't believe those to groups would merge and if they did .. OH SH!T .. that is bad news

Simple pre-arranged message to others. Like; on three hike the ball.
