Terrorism in my hometown
http://news.yahoo.com/feds-charge-ex...175436760.html

"ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — A 25-year-old man from the former Yugoslavia was charged with plotting a radical Islamic attack on crowded locations around Tampa, including nightclubs and a sheriff's office, with a car bomb, assault rifle and other explosives, federal authorities said Monday."

Thanks for letting me post!

At least he got in contact with a federal CI so that the plot was controlled. We will see how this plays out in the media.

Plays out in Media
Very thankful for that... But I don't know how much media exposure it will get when there are more important things like Tim Tebow and Jersey Shore

Jersey Shore?

I've been flickin' to Ch 99 to get the TV schedule and just started watching parts of Darma & Greg. There's some other show about a ditzy single chick, kinda' cute, but have yet to catch that shows name.

Maybe in 10 years when JS is on 99 I'll catch a few.

I loved watching "Criminal Minds" in which "Greg" from "Dharma and Greg" plays the head honcho FBI Serial Killer Rounder-upper. He NEVER cracks the hint of a smile - just this perpetual frown and hard-ass look. I figure its because if he didn't... everyone would see him as Greg, and laugh.

I laugh anyway. (And hate how they ripped off the "Abby" character from "NCIS"!)

Iraq was never lost and Afghanistan was never quite the easy good war. Those in the media too often pile on and follow the polls rather than offer independent analysis. Campaign rhetoric and politics are one thing - the responsibility of governance is quite another.
