Friday, March 23rd, 2007

You'll all be quite comfortable at Arkham Sanitarium - WonketteThose crazy numbskulls at the Department of Homeland Security are finally being moved to a mental hospital — all of them, forever! Sadly, the move will not begin until 2011, when America is nothing but a massive smoldering ruin. In a bold admission of the absolute incompetence that defines DHS, officials suspect it will take at least three years to complete the move. MORE »

Boston Shuts Down Again, Over Terrorist Traffic-Counter Box

Thursday, March 1st, 2007

Scary! - WonketteYou know those traffic-counting gizmos that city workers string across streets to figure out how many vehicles are passing? Well, the brave anti-terrorism officials of Boston most certainly do not know of these common devices — so they shut down the city today, again, and blew up the traffic counter. You know, the traffic counter the City of Boston was paying for …. MORE »


Stewardess Unravels Awful Gov’t Terror Conspiracy

Monday, February 5th, 2007

riddle, enigma, conspiracy, etc. - WonketteA brave stewardess has been trying to expose a terrible terrorist jet-toilet conspiracy, but airline pilots, TSA air marshals and federal law enforcement agents just laugh at her crusade.

It all started when she was tidying up the bathroom in the coach section of a 757 flying across the country in February 2005 — and if you believe a stewardess would actually clean up the filthy coach lavatory en route, you’ll likely believe the rest of this weirdo story. All is revealed, after the jump.

Fear-mongering Rumor News Update!

Wednesday, September 27th, 2006

usa! usa! usa! - WonketteResponding to our exciting post about unsubstantiated TSA screening rumors, a Homeland Security Insider tells us it could be very, very ugly:

I have heard that TSA will be banning all electronics, to include cell phones. Of course, I immediately laughed that one off. Have you ever tried prying the phone from a Member of Congress? They seriously expect people to check their phones and Palms? There is no way they’ll let that happen. Well, except for the fact that the leadership at DHS is all about overreacting to the small stuff.

Also, I think a case could be made for not allowing them to ban our iPods and other forms of human-interaction-avoidance. It would be cruel and unusual punishment to relegate us to the “radio” stations currently playing on airlines, not to mention a hygiene issue with all those reused headphones. Blech.
