You know what really annoys me about this?

We have to listen to more Anderson Kewper.

My 1st apartment had a view of the Sears Tower, I loved it! As night fell, the lights would come on.. it was so pretty.

How DARE that other country build a taller building!

I like the Handock, the state of IL build, lake point towers, the Drake.

The citibank building is neat.

For the money the handcock deck is a better experience.

Love to look at expensive merchandise at water tower place.
[tho] I shop at thrift stores. The elephant thrift store was really good. Ild get like new clothes from North side...that were just coming into style on teh southside.

lol

I'm glad they were stopped too and I don't give a damn how many phones they had to tap to do it.
Notice that they say 5 were Americans but fail to mention their ethnic origins or religious affiliation.

--believe me- 99% of calls are babble-nagging-mindless.

besides it isnt like they will inform you - if your line is tapped.

She said she talked to one of the men about a month ago. "They seemed brainwashed," she said. "They said they had given their lives to Allah." (from news article)

Seems they were Muslim.

In any case, terrorists aren't very likely to say things like "the bomb is almost complete all we need are the detonators and then we'll kill all the infidels."

It would probably more like "the report is almost finished, all we need is the cover sheet and then we can release it and blow the audience away."

They didn't "fail." There are laws about revealing defendants' personal information, and news networks follow those laws for a reason (assuming they even know--since they just go by whatever the FBI tells them).

You know, I live in a society where we don't assume that people are terrorists just because they're Arabs or Muslims. Not sure what society you live in.

I heard they caught them because they were buying cheesesteaks at Genos and didn't speak English.

Hmmm, maybe that's the FBI's best terrorism-tracking method.

Edited to add: By the way, the USDOJ has released pictures of the suspects.
