Hi all<br />I was just reading here (actually in the tech side) listening to Coast to Coast AM with George Norey when a caller got in to report that his friend Annie Jacobsen (a reporter for the womens Wall Street) had called him today 07-14-04 to let him know that the story she had told him two weeks ago was actually going to be printed.<br /><br />It's a bit long but interesting. This is the first time I've seen in writing what some of my friends have told me in private. <br /><br /> http://www.womenswallstreet.com/WWS/

Hmmm. ANY topic that is discussed on "Coast-to-Coast" and is actually printed afterward, is scarey.<br />I have my alarm clock set to "Coast-to Coast AM", and it does a fine service of waking me up with a silly grin on my face. Yesterday, it was the Piramid/Egyptian/Space guys topic.

I find the Coast to Coast program entertaining. It was better with Art Bell, though. The chupacabra stories made my skin crawl, especially when I'd take my two dogs for a night walk back in '95 and '96.<br /><br />Of course, it's all pure unadulterated BS, but entertaining nonetheless!<br /><br /><br />-dd-

So I take it these stories are a hoax?

I tried to verify the story/author, and saw she had written another story and so seems to be a real person. It's a tough sell when you cant verify anything about the story itself. Obviously they were doing test runs for years. Not unbelieveable. This might be the author's website. Pretty far out there man. <br /> http://www.anniejacobsen.com/

As I do also on the subject of terrorism.<br />But I needed to be fair/honest to say what program I was listening to as Coast to Coast is 99.9% BS! But as others have said sometimes entertaining.<br />How ever the guy who called in last night was totally off subject and asked the Host to at least read her article. So I looked it up. <br /><br />Lunch over and back to Dry wall... uggg :)

I think it is a nice piece of creative writing. For starters, on average only 1 in 3 planes has an air marshall on board, but this flight had several? Did they just happen to be on the flight or were they watching the 14 men? If they were watching the 14 men, they would never have given them the opportunity to pull of an attack, like they did in the story. Granted, no attack happened, but the men had more than enough opportunity. Also, no airline would allow 6 people to get up after they were told to sit down and put their seat belts on for the final approach, Arab or American. It just doesn't happen. But I could be wrong. Great story though. :)

I was standing at the bus station in Detroit over the weekend. We were putting the oldest step daughter on a bus back to her aunt, while I was waiting to meet my ex to get my boys. I have my boys for the rest of the summer.<br /><br />Well I couldn't go inside because I was carrying, so I stood outside. This car of islamics pull up and stand around. An older man and a couple of women. Another nice car with three young islamic men pull up. They get out and all start talking. I am watching them, the young men are watching me. One of the women goes in, and gets a younger woman and little girl that have arrived on a bus. They all then stand around and talk in their native tongues for about 30 minutes. They then get in their cars and drive off. The first car with the women was from Canada. The second car with the young men was from Minnesota. One of the younger men, the one that kept an eye on me, took a picture of me with his camera phone as they drove off.<br /><br />BTW, the older man with the women had a t-shirt that read Ottawa Islamic School.<br /><br />So did I witness a possible passage of instructions by word of mouth, as they have said they like to use? Maybe I was just being overly paranoid, but it was nice to see the African Americans that were hanging around taking note of them as well.

I suspect he took your picture just to freak you out for gawking at them. Gawk on, I do. Yes, I feel some sympathy for their prediciment, they are probably perfectly innocent, but the american islamists did not disavow 911 that I know of. Makes anyone with Islam on their shirt suspect to me too.
