I'm so sick of all these phony warnings. I've become so numb that if there was really a threat, I wouldn't believe it and just go about my business.

45. An off-topic anecdote...
In college I had an advertising class devoted to writing memorable copy and slogans. My professor recalled the time he was tasked with demonstrating the power of a good jingle to a client.

He called the operator and asked for a random McDonald's in Chicago. Putting the totally random employee on the other end on speakerphone, he said he was going to sing something and asked them to finish it. In front of the client, he sang "588-2300" in to the phone. Seconds later, the random person at a random McDonald's in a city of millions sang back over the phone:

"EMPIRE!"

61. Canadian border guards used a trick to check citizenship
If you said you were a Canadian, but had no ID, they asked you what the phone number was for Pizza Pizza, a restaurant chain.

I can still remember it - 967-1111, because the catchy jingle goes "967.. Eleven...Eleven".

If you couldn't remember that (especially since it was always on the radio for about 10 years), you weren't a Canadian from Southern Ontario.

I wasn't directing my ire at you. ;) I've been sick with that "flu-type thing" going around, and was in a really bad mood yesterday. Well, and there was the man-child's speech, too. <sigh>

If people on DU didn't provide opportunities for levity, I don't know what we'd do.

19. I call BS... we all know a plane can fly around for almost 2 hours before
jets are scrambled to intercept it. To believe this story, we'd have to believe that there are military fighters ready to go at a moment's notice to intercept such things... to believe that, we'd have to question the official story of Sept. 11th.

I actually live near where they escorted the plane to. The planes were flying low and I was trying to figure out what was going on. The helicopter was flying low too. Reminded me of 9-11 when the only thing in the sky was F-16s.

It took hours to get out of DC. By noon, the only thing you saw in the skies were F-16s. That went on for a few days. But you are correct, they were too late.
