via drudge: al qaeda warns u.s. to be ready for another attack. posturing or reality?

update

now i’m usually a good conspiracy guy, and here’s a blatant one. reuters references alneda.com in the article above. it doesn’t come up – some message like “there is no web site configured here at this time” comes up.

and if you go to visit whois services at verisign, this domain comes up as an error. fascinating. i’m sorry, but that’s *someone* stopping these sites from working. which means someone has also seen that i’ve been there…. oooh, i’m really scared. next you’ll be telling me that there are these little text files on my computer telling people where i’ve been surfing! or that people can enter my computer through the internet. or that people can get a hold of my email address and send me bothersome messages too.

it’s a great sunday morning, and i’m going to head out and run some errands and go to riverfest in red bank with p/c. should be a good time, although it’s always ridiculously crowded because it’s the best thing to do in the area. i’ll let you know if i see anyone like jon bon jovi, etc., as he’s a resident just across the river. yeah, like he’s going to be strolling the streets of red bank looking for a good place to get zeppoles or something. mmmm, zeppoles.

pitched a no-hitter last night with mike mussina on playstation against the orioles. should have been a perfect game, but loser nomar garciaparra on my yankees team threw a ball away letting someone get on first. twas very upsetting. and then costas and howard reynolds don’t even say anything about my masterpiece! how upsetting is that. you would think i could at least get a little recognition from a system with a little bit of a.i. to it.

more later, peoples.

you know, you’d think at this point in society we’d technologically be able to have bridges that would close correctly even with expansion/contraction. apparently not – these folks in connecticut spent some four hours or so on a train today waiting for such an event.

wow – at least around here land disputes usually just end up with people egging their neighbor’s car or something… i didn’t think it was commonplace for gunmen to open fire and kill 26 innocents.

uh oh – you knew it would happen, but our bandwidth is beginning to run thin. forget your remote control for the vcr opening the garage door – now things are on the same wavelengths as your wireless devices! read about it here.

the germans thrashed the saudi arabian team today 8-0 in world cup action, apparently breaking a whole bunch of records in doing so.

oh no – spidey’s on steroids too? nahh, just a good little article at espn’s page 2.

just got back from seeing “the sum of all fears” with crazy ewok. it was actually pretty good, and ben affleck actually played a pretty good jack ryan. except for the fact that the story seems a little out of whack now because they made the movie take place in ‘02, and that he is younger in this flick than he was in all the other clancy movies, it was darn good.

after seeing the previews a bunch of times, i knew exactly when the bomb scene was coming, and it was just like my friend at work had said at a press viewing he’d gone to a few weeks ago – dead silence – it was pretty dramatic, but went over pretty well.

obviously not knowing if anyone else in the theatre had been down at the ground zero area on that horrible day in september, i don’t know if they all thought the same way about anything, but i don’t think that the people who put the movie out were “wrong” to do so. i think that’s just the politically correct police bearing down on us all repeatedly. frankly, while some p/c things make sense, some of them are flat out annoying. we might as well just go all out and move into a police state already.
