    Default Terror on the Airline

    ...Aytallolah's in Iran, Russians in Afganistan

    Seriously though, what is with all this recent airline mania? I don't have a links, but I have been watching the news and so many planes have been diverted or forced landed.

    It's the snakes”: This one is easy. Just have to decrease the temperature of the cabin under or near zero degree, give blankets to all passengers and problem resolved. Duration of the movie: 15 mm.

    Guys, I'm serious. All these reports of planes being grounded due to possible terror activities. This is nuts.

    Dynamite in a guy's bag at Bush Airport, in Houston, Texas:

    Hmm, that's a bit suspicious. And worrying, since they only found it after selecting his bag for extra scrutiny.

    its because terrorists succeeded once at it, so now other terrorists try to do similar things, and the security services get really paranoid about it (out of proportion really)

    Many a camper has woken up beside a snake in their sleeping bag because it got cold and thought the camper was warm and cuddly...
