Another one?

Still, in appearances on Sunday talk shows, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said the traveling public "is very, very safe."

"This was one individual literally of thousands that fly and thousands of flights every year," Napolitano said. "And he was stopped before any damage could be done. I think the important thing to recognize here is that once this incident occurred, everything happened that should have."

Get that in your head, Herr Rot! I mean, how complicated is this to grasp?

OK, Tecs. I will learn to stop worrying and love the bomb that doesn't go off.

I think the PETN was just so enamored with Barry that it shunned its detonator.

In this case, a glass of OJ coulda really helped.

Ivana the Terrible?

More Binnie boyz waiting in the wings, training in Yemen. That's where the Gitmo guys are being sent to, am I right? Swell, just swell.

As for the second guy, sorry, Herr Rot -- you guessed wrong this time: it was a case of bad diarrhea. You know, when you gotta go after all that bad airline food, you gotta go. So pony up. It will be a VCP on ice this time.

I don't buy it. Bad diarrhea doesn't cause verbal abusiveness... Also, a Nigerian can eat anything or he will eat nothing.

If I were one of those guys, I would try to keep the enemy off balance, mixing up genuine attacks and decoys.

Terrorism works in the media, and this is one more story. If they want the US out of Nigeria (tragic idea, huh?) how would they best proceed, given limited resources?

Nigeria is a big producer of oil. And, it's in the middle of a low-level civil/religious war.

Right. Perfect for recruitment.
