Hi B,

>She is planning to go on Jan.26, and I am worried!<

Stop worrying. The threat, if there actually is one, will be over by then.>

Ira - do you mean the threat will be over or if it's an actual threat the Chunnel may no longer be operable then if the threat is there is would have succeeded by then?

>do we see enhanced security measures after 7/7 on London Underground? No, aside from more noticeable metropolitan police presence. <

So the extra cops are just chopped liver?

I have.<

Me too, but that doesn't increase my risk of being involved in a terror incident.

"Or if you are in Brazil perhaps I shouldn't go to a place where the murder rate is 3 times that of even the US - or 10 times that of the UK."

Alan, please do continue to think like that. Let us keep Brazil free of rude tourists!

Probably been all over FOX NEWS tv but really no one in their right mind would watch that mess.

Budman Dec 27th, 2006 09:31 AM

Curt, you should watch FOX NEWS -- you might learn something. Fair & Balanced. :-) ((b))

Curt Dec 27th, 2006 09:34 AM

BUDMAN - what say we pop open a couple of cold ones and discuss the ups and downs of FOX NEWS - you can try to convince why it is good and I can try to convince why it is bad and we can agree to disagree and have a few more brewskies before we go our own ways......

"Probably been all over FOX NEWS tv but really no one in their right mind would watch that mess.'

Curt, then why is Fox so popular and its ratings so high? Does that mean tens of millions are not in thier right minds? I watch all the cable channels and it was not just on Fox.



Budman Dec 27th, 2006 09:37 AM

I like the foxes on Fox. :-)

The beer sounds good!! When are you coming to NJ. ((b))

kswl Dec 27th, 2006 09:40 AM

Budman, I think the combination of beer and tv are getting to you. :)

degas Dec 27th, 2006 09:43 AM

Fox babes rule!

It would take some darn good beer to get me to go to NJ!

The real question is who the heck doesn't watch Fox? Have you seen the low ratings MSNBC gets? Maybe two people watch at night and they got to be relatives of the show hosts.

Curt Dec 27th, 2006 09:45 AM

BUDMAN - line up a few of those FOXY FOX babes, ice down the beer, and meet me at the Newark airport - its party time!

Curt Dec 27th, 2006 09:45 AM

Oh yeah Degas you can come too.....we are all friends here!

degas Dec 27th, 2006 09:50 AM

Curt, I got some real pull with the FOX leadership. Which FOX babe do you want me to bring along?

Curt Dec 27th, 2006 11:20 AM

Samantha Fox might be cool.....

degas Dec 27th, 2006 12:08 PM

Or Stacy Q? You know - two of hearts!

PalenqueBob Dec 27th, 2006 12:09 PM

I thought fox hunting in UK was now illegal

Carrybean Dec 27th, 2006 02:00 PM

"Me too, but that doesn't increase my risk of being involved in a terror incident."

True, but I'm sure they felt the same way.

If I remember correctly, Budman is a wine drinker. :)

Budman Dec 27th, 2006 03:50 PM

I drink beer also. :-) ((b))
