Duct tape and plastic sheeting? I'm shocked that you and your family are still alive!!! It's been updated to Gorilla Glue and Lexan. Whew!

Meanwhile some causes of death from most to least likely:

Being born
Heart disease
Death while walking (car-pedestrian)
Death by terrorist
Death by didgeridoo-wielding gay midget in clown suit beating you to smithereens

I'm gonna stick with the duct tape and plastic sheeting. I can take that down later and recycle the plastic.

Okay; you takes your chances. Meanwhile I'm going with Gorilla Glue and Lexan, which I'm hoping will keep didgeridoo-wielding gay midgets at bay, hopefully. It's a long shot, but my family might make it to Thanksgiving 2013, if I'm vigilant.

LOL

They are saying now to go about your business, life as normal. So why tell us anything if they believe it's safe enough to go about our lives as normal. Are we supposed to be scared or what? So confused.

Just curious what brought this thread on, which seems to be lampooning something.

I'm just curious, because if someone said high level al queda agents are in place, that sounds like they are saying they are in place in America, and they should be hammered and asked for evidence for that. Otherwise, its just fear mongering.

It was created by the media in a lab with a focus group. In fact, why do we even need these intelligence gathering operations in the first place? The argument can be made they have outlived their utility.
