Terror Threats and the holidays
I think it is a sad thing that we have to worry about Terror Threats. It is a common thing to hear, "Well, the holidays are coming up, a perfect time
for Terrorist to fuck things up big time."

This story is scary as well.

all those tunnels have ALWAYS made me nervous. sitting in traffic in the holland is the worst.
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

I know I'm putting my foot in my mouth bigtime by saying this because I know there's a population of Thorpsters with kids, but it's shit like this
that makes me want to have children less and less.

I don't like how these news people keep putting out "Hey we would be absolutely fucked if you attacked us here, RIGHT HERE, I'll draw you a map"
articles. Seems a little counterproductive.

the draft thing is bothering me.
Each aspect of the soul has it's own part to play, but the ideal is harmonious agreement with reason and control.

scary indeed,.... but releasing terror threats once and a while also helps to "sell the war",... especially as the Bush camp is on the loosing side.

haha I never understood this. And it happens all the bloody time.
"Nations railways lack security"
"Nuclear plants open to attack"
"Our schools have no security, terrorists could kill kids"
Why bother reporting shit like this except to promote another attack and draw the X on the map.

Definately true, when there's bad news or polls are in the shitter, raise a terror alert and scare people, which also happens every time there is a
public holiday.
A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s
a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal
favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

I would just like to say you should not always listen to the news and take it at face value. Also, the draft thing...............you have nothing to
worry about, there will never be another draft in this country unless we are faced with a war so large the conscripted forces cannot handle it. The
whole geopolitical climate of our globe has changed so much, there will never be another war like WWII, it's impossible given how much we as a race of
beings and our systems have changed.
