Don't look now, but there might be terrorists on the loose this holiday weekend... Yeppers. Y'all be looking for them. Baggy clothes ('cause that's NOT a fashion statement), wires hanging outta places; mumbling to themselves, or looking "too calm". Oh sure. People like that will be hard to miss alright. And of course, they'll be milling about near gas stations - where EVERYONE will be this weekend, filling up their tanks.

Oh the gub'ment is clever. They are! They've got us trained so as soon as there's a special occasion coming up, they start in warning us about all the places those wacky terrorists "might" be hiding. Gotta keep us half nuts with anxiety. And we all know that people who are scared of their own shadows ALWAYS vote Republican.

I expect around Halloween, Tom Ridge will be on the news, warning us to be careful of exploding jack-o-lanterns. I sure do love the holidays!
