YO: Drudge and ABC News are hiking the alert sign, it seems....

Senior U.S. intelligence officials tell ABC News new intelligence suggests a small al Qaeda cell is on its way to the United States, or may already be here.

The White House has convened an urgent multi-agency meeting for Thursday afternoon to deal with the new threat (while Vice President Dick Cheney is on his cell phone with Osama bin Ladin to coordinate any event that might happen. Meanwhile, White House Press Secretary, Tony Snow indicated this evening the souring cycles of news coverage on television are making it clear appropriate distractions are soon likely to become necessary in the interest of national security.)

Parenthetically, Orwellingly Yurz. OY!

I have eaten much popcorn since late 2001.


What a man believes upon grossly insufficient evidence is an index into his desires -- desires of which he himself is often unconscious. If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way. - Bertrand Russell
