Oh me gawd! It's really gone over the top!

If it were April first, it wouldn't have taken me a millisecond to start
smiling at this but, no, it's for real (or whatever passes for real in TSA
land).

This from CNN:

"The FBI is warning police nationwide to be alert for people carrying
almanacs, cautioning that the popular reference books covering everything
from abbreviations to weather trends could be used for terrorist planning."

This from me:

All Americans are advised to wrap their heads in duct tape over a several
layers of plastic sheeting in case terrorists jump out from behind lamp
posts and hit them over the head with large reference books.

Yeah, I know. The FBI is worried about the information in the books. Do
you think they ever heard of the Internet?

Believe it or not, there are some that would have a grand ole' book burning
down on the Mall shouting "Hail Bush" if they were given any more power...

I think I will go buy me an almanac and go sit at O'Hare and read it.

They're not worried about the information in the book. They are just trying
to get rid of Almanac Salesmen. Or else they fit the profile for
terrorists. After all, no normal American would ever carry an almanac!

Burning all the books. Isn't that what "Fahrenheit 451" is all about?

Nor a book of tides, nor an ephemeris...

uuuuh wait a sec, I DO! And a Bowditch and a sextant... gaaawd, I must be
a terrorist...

They also cautioned against people in possession of maps. So put an
almanac in your flight bag and be a real terrorist.
Perhaps most of the administration should take Roger's advice on the
plastic and duct tape headwrap.

Well, as we all know, "FBI" stands for Fools, Buffoons, and Imbeciles.

Great discoveries are not announced with "Eureka!". What's usually said is
"Hummmmm... That's interesting...."

*sssssssshhhhhhhhhhh!*

Laugh I love this circle.

It used to be the Internet that took the heat assigned by people that had
never read an encyclopedia. Now, they're back to blaming books. Perhaps
Ridge and company haven't learned how to use a browser yet. Didn't his
boss have trouble at a Grocery checkout?

so what's your point?

Hail Bush
