due to 'threatening verbal note.' CNN is covering non-stop currently..


Initially Kyrass Phillips stated the plane was diverted from Dallas to San Antonio, and later changed it to Corpus Cristi..A threatening NOTE was found onboard.

1. Great. So now, to turn a plane around...

All you have to do is yell? Christ.

8. And, more important, waste our time and cause fear and divert our

respective attentions from more impotant media coverage (like Aruba, Jackson, etc.) :sarcasm:

2. Did they really say "threatening threat." I love Texas!

[shelley806]

13. LOL!!! I noticed my error...THIS bumbling Texan miswrote...and its a

threatening note...

[jobycom]

18. LOL Sorry, wasn't actually PLANNING to pick on you

And bold of you to admit it and not blame CNN, too. :-)

[shelley806]

19. Thanks jobycom! LOL! I guess I could have easily blamed it on

Corrupt National Nonews...it did generate some absolutely hysterically funny remarks though...the Department of Repetitive Redundancy!!

3. Threatening Verbal Threat, Ma'am?

Good to see the Department of Redundancy Department hard at work....

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

7. Sir, that would be the Department of Repetitive Redundancy

[shelley806]

15. How about the Department of threatening repetitive redunancy! nt

14. To differentiate it from a non-threatening verbal threat.

Sort of like, "Cooling warmth", or, "Homicidal kindness".

[The Magistrate]

17. Homicidal Kindness, Sir?

That is a good one indeed, worth remembering....

4. Novak on the plane? nt

Sid

5. What? Did he say something negative about the peanuts?

Or the in-flight magazine?

6. I thought the majority of these things were arresting drunk people.

I guess with all the "terrorism" mass hysteria they're seeing Goldsteinism or whatever everywhere.

9. From Dallas to Houston via San Antonio?

Why in the heck are they sending the plane to Houston? They rather it blow up there?

[babylonsister]

10. It was en route to Corpus Christi and stopped in HOU. nt

[shelley806]

11. Initially Kyrass Phillips said San Antonio; then changed it to Corpus

Christi...

[MadHound]

12. Oh, a threatening verbal threat.

As opposed to a nonthreatening verbal threat? Or a threatening non-verbal threat? How about a threatening verbal non-threat.

Apparently you're screwed if you've got Turrets Syndrome and get on a plane these days.

Everyday it has become clearer and clearer that Osama has won this war. Americans are more than willing to ditch their civil liberites, and are now crying like little children whenever somebody says "BOO". Home of the brave my ass:eyes:

16. I know the feeling . . .

A threatening NOTE was found onboard.

"If you make us watch Miss Congeniality one. more. time . . ."
