Actually, I was trying to point out that I was blissfully ignorant of the whole new terrorist plot until Ivan mentioned it.

The Kinks tune was probably inappropriate, as this does look like a credible threat. If I were a moderator, I'd probably have deleted the post and given myself a warning, for https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=451617".

Bad OmCheeto! Bad!

Thank you for saying how "Old" I am, long ago. I appreciate that now. :smile:

The following is a wonderful video of a guy who loved the view of the twin towers. It starts out a bit slow, like my friend Bob, who takes forever to tell a story. But the subject, like my friend Bob, is in his 70's, so that's just the way they do it.

Simon Leventhal, is as brutally honest with himself, and in regards to life, as I hope someday to be.

Turn off your TV's, and enjoy:

Pretty sure I was in history class, either 7th or 8th grade. I didn't know what to think, I was just a kid. It hits me more now.

I rest my case and I have a brand new mattress that hubby has been hogging for hours.
It's my turn.

mcknia07, Please make better the future. :smile:
