"Possible". "Potential". Key to being a good Sibyl is never be too definite and never predict happy things. Nobody holds being wrong against you when you predicted the worst.

Besides, everyone wants to feel important. :rolleyes: City and county buildings in the town of ~130K where I work shut down twice after 9/11 because somebody thought they might be next.

Hope I'm not wrong on this one but if you offered odds, I'd wager that we've seen the worst of it from the terrorists. If they'd had more to bring on, it would have happened by now, before the worst of the shock and grief had faded. <finger cross>

I hope your right mate. But look at it this way: 1) Bin's Boys have in the past spread out their terror attacks and 2) They are being forced into a corner now, that can only make them more radical and desperate.

I also worry about the US threats to take on Iraq, threats that have not been well received by the International community, especially Europe.

In one of the first "interviews" after hostilities started. Bin pretty much said he was after the entire non-muslim world. What I thought should have sent moderate muslim's tearing against him was the comment They might be educated as good Muslims (Taliban style), if not they should share the same end as non-muslim. That got quickly dropped later on in his interviews.

Kind of strange seeing shots of what had been extreme muslim's in Pakistan which supported him. (Nice shot of a demonstration with one guy leading them and screaming and stuff.) Now the same one is asking why the taliban did not cede earlier. (Pretty much complete change of face.)

Just hope they (Afgani's) can get their sh*t together and get the country going. For some reason I think they/themselves not any outside force is their own worse enemy.

Actually I'de be more worried then that. A Kangaroo's pouch is a great place to hide explosive, and when your pet comes back home "whoof", many Aussie's familly end up toasted...

I say, get the kangaroo's out of your houses NOW, there are the ultimate security thread to this country...

Think about it... !

:D :D :hic: :reindeer: :gift:

Do you guys really keep them as pets? I want one! they dont bite do they?

[wylie]

not so much bite as rear back on their tail and disembowel you with their hind legs........some breeds can get to 7 foot tall....
but no.....they arent jumping down the main street anymore than moose roam downtown montreal (no?? ;)) or grizzlies stalk the streets of Miami......
However where I am at this moment (about 300km NE of Perth - werk trip) they are plentiful. Quite a magnificent creature to see belting down the road at full speed.
