I'm trying to remember where the target was in the book, but I'm stumped. Then again, the bomb didn't actually detonate per se, it fizzled.

Denver is apparently quite a nice place, while nothing I saw on Homicide: Life on the Streets made me want to go there. Its status as Birthplace of Snay is just the icing on the cake.

When I was in Denver the summer before last, the dog was rather displeased with the hot weather, so he, being the sensible little fellow that he is, decided to spread his legs on the marble floor of the State Legislature foyer and treat his poor crotch to the cool kiss of democracy.

Anyway, this is relevant because of this. Only vaguely, I suppose, but I get the sense it'll clear up Vogon's confusion. (And also, I guess, because dog crotch relates indirectly to sex.)

It's a mile above sea level, without the plane.


On the orange alert, well, I live in the boonies, and even though there are some rather large chemical plants here, they are not doing a lot of business these days, and I don't worry about being bombed or whatever.

My sister is getting some training for her job. She works for FMC in North Carolinia, and the training was in Virginia. I didn't think anything about it till she called last weekend. Her husband is with her, and the group was sight seeing. As she was hanging up, she said they were pulling into Arlington National Cemetary. That's when I realized she was not only close to DC, but in DC at that moment. I started worrying a little more at that point.

if Bush really wanted to get some terrorists, he would build a new World Trade Center that looked partially finished, even though it was fully operational and armed much better than the original, then set the national alert level to the lowest color.

the terrorists would all be caught in the ensuing trap!

No, no, no. The terrorists would use fighter jets to attack the WTC's main reactor and defeat the New Imperialist trap.
