what if i'll probably forget this request by the time you get them Razz?

what if, re brucy's canadian news, i don't think i could watch that without giggling?

what if i think it would be like watching new zealand news (not that i've done that either)?

what if some accents just aren't fit for delivering news without making me giggle?

what if this is why all the australian news readers make their accents more english-sounding?

what if, but not too english, because that makes me giggle too?

what if this is why i don't watch the news, i always end up giggling at things that i shouldn't?

What if it is now perhaps wee enuff in the hours to explain..?? Smile

What if I was truly Teed Off at the Airline industry for its complete failure on 9-11..??

What if the canadians said that "there was INTELLIGENCE that terrorists intended to fly planes into buildings"..???

What if I taped the show & watched 60 minutes thus have only had glimpses at it so far..??



WHat if before Xmas 2001 I was wondering why NO ONE felt the airlines could POSSIBLY have imagined such a thing..??

What if I also said that its just DIFFERENT when you work with something all the time..???

What if like ford with the pinto's exploding gas tank(maybe) they just felt they would take that risk.(to all of us not to themselves)?

What if none of you recognise me as the true visoinary that I am Roll Eyes while im alive & stuff..??

What if 1 or 2 more risk takers start reading my posts..??
What then..????

What if I hope Heities not disappointed with my revelation..which I woulda made earlier but I doubted if anyone would care enuff to make it worth the effort of typing..??

What if, with such SPECIFIC intelligence, it's a wonder that 9/11 wasn't prevented?

What if I'm sure I can now convince Brucy that I am as "visionary" as him?

What if I predict that one day (I can't say exactly when) terrorists (I can't specify from which country) intend to assassinate (I can't say how) the President of the United States of America (I can't say which one)?

What if, when the plot is foiled, I expect to be hailed as a hero?

what if it was my understanding that the U.S. also had information (i have a hard time calling it intelligence) prior to 9/11 that terrorists might attack with planes?

what if airline security was pretty different (i.e. lax) pre 9/11?

what if also, apparently, security regarding pilot training?

what if tptb "let it happen"?

what if despite how much i am truly repulsed by Bush and his "machine," i still tend to believe they're just single-mindedly idiotic, and, while being blood-thirsty Crusaders, not malicious enough to allow Americans to die quite horribily to promote their agenda?

what if i could be wrong, though?

what if it's a scenario that will be "what if...ed" for many years to come?

what if i missed that part where Brucy wanted to be hailed?


whatif i edited to complete a "what if..." i left danglin'...doh?

What if I thought I'd heard that about the "intelligence" as well?

What if we just call it information?

What if the government probably calls it something like "possible information", like it may or may not be information because since they didn't figure it out themselves there's probably nothing to it?

What if nobody else could ever have a thought of any substance?

What if I can't stand self-important people like that?

What if our government seems like just a bunch of those dicks from junior high that none of us liked?

What if I wanted to spell that d*cks but then it looks like ducks?

What if the government should be more like ducks, not that I went to school with many ducks, but I assume they're very nice?

What if they eat bugs, so that would be a bonus for people living in D.C.?

What if my thoughts are a little fragmented this morning?

What if I've been staying up too late writing what may or may not become children's books?

What if one's about a puppy? Smile

What if I optimistically hope they'll be illustrated in the style of Peppermint?

What if, interestingly, Dorothy Grider also illustrated Peppermint herself, but the Raymond Burns version is the one I'm used to?

What if my grandma used to read it to me, and it took forever to find a good copy of it that I could afford?

What if babble babble...?

What if I found it entertaining that Heitie would go off on a bit of a rant?

What if I found it just as entertaining that her tangent was rather fowl?

Heehee
WHat if ...I see what you mean.
I obviously didnt explain myself too well.

Let me try this :


1) terrorists have hijacked planes.
2) Kamikazes have flown planes into targets as 'guided missles'.
3) the Architect who planned & built the Twin Towers PLANNED into them the ability to withstand an (accidental)airplane strike.
4) my opinion here--the airline industry had no plan to stop hijackers because Usually they ask just for something, hold people for a few days & kill just a few.So why cut into profits with un-nessessary security to save a few lives every decade or so.

What if I worked in the airline industry,I think eventually I might have been able to connect the dots on this one.
What if Im not saying anyone should have known it would be WTC on 9-11.
What if Im saying the airline industry should not have put profits ahead of human lives,nor been allowed to put profits first by Govt,etc.
There was No Attempt to ensure on board safety with sky marshalls or such.
I think the cost would have been negligible $1-2 a ticket say.

Imagine 9-11 with a trained armed Sky Marshall aboard 50% of flights.
Lets say they were 50% effective in foiling the terrorists plans.
that means 1 of 4 hi-jacked planes lands safely.
Since 50% of the planes hit the towers that means 50-50 odds that one of the world trade center towers would be standing today.Awe inspiring what "a dollar & a dream"* can do ..isnt it.? Smile

Not because ANYONE had ANY specific threat info just because big business had been forced to behave in a reasonable,responsible & safe fashion.


What if I dont blame the govt. Im not a Government conspiracy nutball.
WHat if Im an anti-capitalist nutball ..who thinks civilization is about PEOPLE,..ALL people.. not just the 1-2% of movers & shakers who have all the ca$h,influence & power.

What if what you wrote below kinda supports what Im tryin to say.



What if I predict that one day (I can't say exactly when) terrorists (I can't specify from which country) intend to assassinate (I can't say how) the President of the United States of America (I can't say which one)?

This is why we have bodyguards {blush the Secret Service,is it?}& stuff for the Prez because sooner or later what you said above WILL Happen.If I thought anyone was payin attention to me I would have been less obscure in my orignal post.
WHat if..Most stuff I say around here disappears like a fart in a windstorm smash & even after scrolling for almost 8 1/2 years I Still hate typing & remain awful at it!!
WHat if thats my excuse for being Vague..??


Now on to more US Bashing...

* "a dollar & a dream" is a sound bite for the New York State lottery.




Why is it easier to fool the masses than it is to convince them that they have been fooled...?

What if instead of editing my above post I quoted myself accidentally??
[sounds oddly insane doesnt it?} Big Grin

What if I deleted the first posting & when it all came back on screen there was something written by salem on the bottom of the page!!??

What if it had gone to page 1 so my nearly hour of typin wasnt sent off into internet limbo.

What if WHEW!!???

What if back to more dark muterings..now??

What if I see a troubling trend in americans allowing the rich & feckless{No I dunno what it means so dont be askin}to do as they please, like whateva..??


What if the airlines walk away poutin because they have higher expenses now because of the terrorists, but they are blameless...SOoooo..
the Same Idiots who overlooked security,totally, are still in charge.
What if their next brainstorm is to dump their expenive pension burdens on the taxpayers,because they were so devastated by 9-11 they can no longer afford what they PROMISED??Awww......

WHat if this encourages the Oil Industry to Piggishly gobble up OBSCENE profits after Hurricane Katrina & blame it China & stuff because who dares wins & they should get away with oodles of cash too????

What if pathetic little mindless americans just grumble to them selves because in a Post-Reagan world only the rich matter & 95% of us dont really count???

What if alla this just enrages me & makes me wanna to run around like a madman grabbing everyone & shaking then viciously shouting.."WAKE UP!! THINK!!!"..???

What if Im offa my meds & Im not takin em ANY MORE.....BWaHAHAHAHA"

What if never again..& you cant make me??

What if life was more fun when *I* was the one who was young & foolish & didnt know nuthin..???

What if I don't think that would make much difference, seeing as how Brucy isn't saying anything people haven't already said?

What if WARNING!! WARNING!! BIG WALL O' TEXT ALERT!!?
