Normal at an airport is stressed, sweaty and twitchy. Unless that’s just me.
It has a brilliant name: Project Hostile Intent!
I don’t know whether that refers to them or the people they’ll be targeting…

Yep, bet they’d love to be able to control people to that extent.
Wait there! Didn’t some innocent dude called Jean Charles Something the other, end up with six bullets pumped into his head for acting normal. Lets just hope that the pre-crime machine isn’t run on Vista, for ALL our sakes.

make everyone walk around naked, thats my solution
“Lets just hope that the pre-crime machine isn’t run on Vista”
Nope. It’ll run on Visa, like every other new fangled half-wit idea created for our ‘protection’.
good one leon..heh! i think the hostile intent is definitely on their part!

don you’re absolutely right, everyone is so pissed off in airports, either with the airlines, the queue, their family, or whatever, perspiring angry people – boy they’d have to arrest everyone at Heathrow wouldn’t they!
