shameless bump - can we also ban Barbra Streisand.......

Thr answer to this query is for everyone to be VIGILANT! God help you/Allah help you/or whomever if you have nefarious plans on a plane I am on. Like Anne, I have no qualms about speaking up, or in the worse-case scenario, making sure you don't get up. To all potential and existing terrorists...

Finger print EVERYONE, every time they fly, and have an international database. However, in light of what happened with cell phone usage on the fateful PA flight on 9/11, I would still like to be able to bring my cell phone onboard with me just in case I need to say goodbye to my family.

Sandra - ITA, Can we please try to move back on target everyone. Perhaps if you would like to discuss historical dichotomies (sp?), you can start another thread. I am more interested in the current situation. Thank you!

In light of what has happened over the past 24 hours - anyone want to change their vote?

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, the "no electronics rule" will be going into effect. Basically, for now, the U.S. is going to follow the U..K.'s example. YES, this is a big pain in the tushie and everyone has a right to be mad, but I would rather be inconvenienced than be dead. I have advised my...

Man, I go to an office meeting for a few hours, to discuss this latest and man, were you all busy with your posts. Having said that, in answer to your question about what you can bring on your flight in the U.S., as of 9am: No liquids, gels, toothpaste, deoderant, no electronics - no CD/DVD...

It was just on the news - the FBI has arrested 4 of them - 3 were found, I believe, in Georgia, and 1 in California - no excuses given as to why they were there. And no word on the others. I am VERY thankful for the Patriot Act which mandated that if foreign students don't show up at the...

I wonder what ever happened to the saying "Pace on earth, good will to all men?" I'll say an extra prayer for you and your Mom Sandra. Stay safe.

Some more news - Homeland Security has raised the USA terror alert for all airlines to our highest level - RED - meaning attack is expected. They do not believe the UK got everyone, they believe some are already in the US. Also posted, advising people who don't have to be at airports, to stay...

I understand what everyone has said, and thought maybe I should clarify what I said about "wanting to forget". I NEVER want to forget the importance of that day, but for me, personally, I'd like to forget the carnage and devestation I saw at the Pentagon. No human being should ever do that to...

I understand what you are saying, and I know the Pentagon was not as horrific as the WTC. But having said that, I worked at the Pentagon and was also tasked with SAR for a few days afterwards. I WISH I WISH I WISH that I had taken my boss' advice and not gone for it was 1000% more horrific...

Legally, there is a LOT you can do. I don't know what state you are in, but you can probably go online to your state's Government web page and look under Landlord Tenant rules and regulations. Re: the noise cop - is this the same as the regular police? If not call the police and tell them you...

aah yes, DH's opinions DO matter in house choices. Now that I know that the dark mahogany is what you have, let me tell you about my kitchen. It has beautiful Quakermaid Dark Cherry Cabinets and I wanted to put granite but didn't like the speckeled ones, nor the dark black colors. My kitchen...

Did you know that Mahogany cabinets do not have to be stained dark. Mahogany with a light stain are beautiful! And with the Black Angola, it would be the perfect mix of light and dark. I agree w/ the other poster about the Creme granite - the lighter granites are more porous than the darker...

I sure hope your dog feels better soon. I had a small poodle - 40 pounds that at the age of 11, had similar symptoms to yours. It turns out after many tests that she had Alzheimer's.

I remember 7 out of 10 (I'm 45). Here's the REAL kicker fior being older than dirt...... I remember when gasoline was regular and it only cost 19 cents at Andrews Air Force Base (1966)!

Today is the opening of the Movie World Trade Center. Please vote as to whether you'll see it or not. Personally, having been involved with 9/11 at the Pentagon, I don't think I am strong enough to relive it all. While I know this is "supposed to be" a story about the "heroes" and those...
