Moving away from the negative and on the positive just briefly...the Chicago Tribune just bought the ENTIRE Boston Globe lunch. They got some ridiculous amount of pizzas delivered suddenly with a short note from the Trib.

The Human Wall was asked nicely not to attend today, though they appreciated our offer. That union branch is local to the town, so they felt it would be more intimate.

DOIN' IT WRONG.

The Canadians, as always, manage to fuck things up, arresting people BEFORE they blow shit up.  This, of course, robs me and the rest of the USA of our precious media circus/gore porn/terror porn, and that is yet ANOTHER reason to support taking the 2nd armored division up North and teaching those crap-headed, jackass-braying, smart alec, frog-leg-eating, beer-swilling, playing football WRONG Canadians a fucking thing or two.

Actual details

QuoteCanada's authorities say they have arrested and charged two people with conspiring to carry out an "al-Qaeda inspired" attack on a passenger train.

At a news conference, the authorities said the suspects Chiheb Esseghaier, 30, and Raed Jaser, 35, were arrested in Montreal and Toronto on Monday.

The attacked was allegedly planned on a VIA passenger train in the greater Toronto area. It was not clear when.

The two men will now appear in court on Tuesday for a bail hearing.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) said the surveillance operation leading to the arrests of the two suspects was "a result of extensive collaborative efforts".

They said the two men were not Canadian citizens and were supported by "al-Qaeda elements in Iran" without providing further details.

At the same time, the RCMP said they believed the alleged plan to attack was in the planning stage and "there was no imminent threat to the general public".

Such as they are.

The bold is why I fucking love Canada. I just imagine everything is still done on horseback somewhere and the world seems a little nicer.

When I was a kid, a "weapon of mass destruction" was a nuke, gas, or germs.

Now it has been expanded to include kitchen impliments.

heh, Mounties are scary.  They are federal police, and the generally drive around in cars, although they are still mounted sometimes up in Nunavut, in areas where there aren't any roads.

This has the added bonus of turning many households into potential strongholds of terrorist supplies.

Bet something like that turns up on a warrant within the year.
