The credible information about a branch of Osama Bin Laden's terror network based in Yemen does not include specifics such as a target, date or location, but is sufficiently worrisome, a U.S. counterterrorism official said.

"Our concerns have intensified," the official told The News.

But, the official added, "I'm not aware of any imminent plot."

Don't forget to be scared.
You might have a reason to be, or you might not.

7. Nah, why bother? It's still working - the peasants are still pissing their pants.

Why bother with the time and effort and issuing new orders to Bushie-CIA handlers?

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. At this rate, the Americccan Subject Populace should catch on, oh about the year 2100.

It's not economical nor smart to rewrite new scripts when the old ones are still working with pants-pissing effectivenss.

8. Based upon many comments I read – sadly I must agree.
Not this particular thread.... so many others.

I recall better scripts performed by the “Man From U.N.C.L.E.” players.
