4. Most likely a delivery van.
It doesn't hurt to take a look though.
I agree the media will overplay this.

9. "don't even think about parking here" - actual no parking street sign in new york city.
by that, i mean that it's not a sign on someone's private property, it's one of the 'no parking' signs put up along the curb in some areas by the city.

the first time i was in nyc and saw one, i found it kind of amusing, because i'd never seen a sign display that kind of attitude. in chicago, 'no parking here to corner' or 'no parking- tow zone' is about as harsh as they get.

19. One of Ed Koch's best.
The other being: No Parking No Standing No Stopping No Kidding
Those still make me laugh.

As for the van, if it wasn't just before new year's, they might not have even noticed it.

21. It was such a hoot when that happened in Oklahoma City, ha ha
Not.

Look, the authorities were right to take it seriously; the media is wrong to turn it into a story.

37. I wondered where that went.....
Right now I'm in (redacted) getting probed and (redacted) and being 'interviewed' by (redacted) before my (redacted) uh- transport to (redacted) or (redacted).

Thanks for loaning me that piece of shit Ford van, GC - they found your stash of (redacted) and the "art" photos you took of what appears to be a female of some sort, although I gotta admit it's hard to discern any real form.....kinda like looking at a gibbon clusterfuck. Relative of yours???

I digress.

I told (redacted) all about your (redacted) and the (redacted) you cannot seem to stop....so they'll be along any time now.

Since I told them you were with (redacted) they have promised me immunity and a new identity.

And a date with whoever's in those photos.

Hubba hubba.

Your friend,

(redacted)

Maybe it just can't start, and driver's off getting help.

32. Looks like another Propaganda Offensive against the American Subject Populace
It will be almost universally unquestioned and universally successful, as all Propaganda Offensives against the American Subjects have been since at least 2000 and probably before.

Though it certainly hasn't had to be subtle lately.

Looks like our Bushie Security Agencies (and if you think Obama controls our miltary and most of the law enforcement, then you simply have not been paying attention to the last decade of American Kremlinolgy) are working to scare the crap out of us.

I wonder why? The obvious conclusion is that we are about to hit Yemen (or perhaps Osrael will hit Yemen), but if there is one thin the increasing success of the Bushigandists of the last 30 years has taight me, it's never as obvious as it seems, and there is some other darker objective or objectives laying behind the obvious one, probably being slipped by us right now as we speak.

It doesn't matter, though. The Propaganda Offensive is underway and it will be a complete success. It already has been a complete success as the American Subject Populace is the most cowardly and gullible to come down the pike since 1933 Germany.
