Big Sis is watching your word usage....
 
I would put this in the comedy zone...but it is "government" so it would fit better in the Clown Car.

These must be some pretty busy rascals reading through all those exchanges.

Department of Homeland Security forced to release list following freedom of information request

Not at all. One would need a compare to previous lists to determine rate of growth. Frankly, the one that was released looks pretty benign.

Remember that the version everyone's looking at online is the redacted version.

For this august group? Too easy. You could probably do it just quoting published snippets from the NYT archives about Opn WATER MOCCASIN III.

I am shocked that you could even think along such lines.

Well, I did notice that the word "gangs" was on there, but not "gangsta"or the words "Quiet Professional," or "QP."

An IRS audit or addition to the TSA's "watch list" to eff with you whenever you fly.

Remember - you do not need a parachute to skydive - you only need a parachute to skydive twice. ;)

In addition to perhaps looking at some time in the hole for the aspect of doing so to provoke/illicit a response, sir.;)
