Scary thought
I'm tired of the world being scared. I don't want to "Look out for suspicious activities," as the signs posted at train stations, outside of ATM machines and in the parking lots of fast food restaurants will tell you. I don't want to wonder what the guy sitting next to me on the plane might be carrying inside his suitcase or in his British sports drink, or watch the nightly news to discover what "deadly food" is lurking in my fridge, or what vicious bacteria is living on the bottom of my purse. Al Qaeda, orange and red alerts, freeway shooters, west Nile, North Korea, SARS, Iraq, bird flu, Iran, Israel, nuclear missiles, shoe bombs, university kids arrested on terror charges. And now, I must fear toothpaste. And mouthwash, and baby formula that hasn't been taste tested in front of a TSA official. Watch out. That bottle of face lotion might have been expensive, but it also could be deadly.

Amen to that. When I woke up this morning, the first thing I heard on the radio was the report from Scotland Yard. The guy knew what he was talking about and wouldn't give any speculation. It was great. Unfortunately, the news I caught on MSNBC a few hours later was LOADED with speculation and the country got worked up into a frenzy. And if you thought flying wasn't already a big enough pain, now it's really gonna suck.
