I wouldn't go on trains-no security there!

I was thinking last night...Isn't it strange that train stations don't check luggage like airplanes do...What's to stop them from trying something? I wouldn't go on a train unless security gets a lot tighter...BIG LOOPHOLE don't you think?

Those greyhound buses, now they are scary, no security.

Oh, also subway systems they are scary too, limited security.

Oh, also, cars, the roads could be bombed. Better stay away from those also.

Oh, I forgot, walking is also scary. I may walk into an danger area.

Maybe I should stay home, nothing will happen to me here, will it?

Lawrence, I still remember the Labor Day weekend when I was almost 10 (we won't go into how many years ago that was). My dad decided we'd stay at home instead of getting out on the road with all the lunatics. As he stepped off the patio, he turned his ankle just right/wrong. Was in a cast for the next 8 weeks.

Lawrence, you'll be safe at home as long as you don't smoke in bed and keep the pilot light lit.

Only really stupid terrorists hijack trains. Kind of hard to veer off course, no?

One track...you are so smart! Like having a train blow up or derail wouldn't be just as terrifying as having people killed by any other form of terrorism.
