New York Police Seize 18,000 Pounds Of Fireworks From Truck
Monday, May 29 2006
The Associated Press

Police officers who stopped a truck that was tail gating a fuel tanker on a highway say they made a potentially explosive discovery - 18,000 pounds of fireworks.

"It would have devastated a quarter-mile radius if they had gone off," Suffolk County Police Department spokesman Robert Boden said Wednesday.

The truck carrying the explosives was found to be dangerously overloaded when it was pulled over Monday for a routine safety check,police said.

A police dog named Nitro - a German shepherd added to the department's anti-terrorism efforts after the Sept. 11 attacks -sniffed out the fireworks.

The driver of the truck, whose manifest said it was carrying papergoods, brought the fireworks from Maryland for illegal resale, policesaid.

State law prohibits the sale or possession of fireworks without apermit. The driver, who was with his adult son, faces multiple summonses for carrying hazardous materials and driving an overweight truck.

To demonstrate how powerful 18,000 pounds of fireworks could be, police exploded about 25 pounds of the sky rockets, Roman candles and other fireworks inside a car at the department's firearms range in Westhampton. The car was destroyed in a massive fireball.


STOP SELLING AMERICA - The ports, our roads... what else...
Tuesday, February 28 2006
UPDATED for the following link (February 28, 2005)
Coast Guard raised concerns over Dubai Ports World.
"Citing broad gaps in U.S. intelligence, the Coast Guard cautioned the Bush administration that it was unable to determine whether a United Arab Emirates-owned company might support terrorist operations, a Senate panel said Monday."


This is getting out of hand.... the selling of America... it's bad enough the out sourcing of our jobs... our boarders are like Swiss Cheese... but the roads and the ports...

Hey man.... you wanna buy a watch...
I know you need a watch...
If you had a watch you'd know what time it was... and you know it was no time
to be in this neighborhood.
Hey... yu wanna buy a diamond ring... scatch real glass.. yu wanna see...
(sound of diamond ring scatching windsheild)

"Hey man... stop that... what you doing to my windsheild"
Cheech and Chong.

Don't Sell the Indiana Toll Highway to Foreign Interests.

Stop the sale of the ports and the East Coast Ports to foreign interests and why.

FBI Probes Ozarks Trucking School for Terrorist Ties

FBI Probes Ozarks Trucking School for Terrorist Ties


The superintendent of the West Plains public school district, which runs the South Central Career Center Truck Training Program as part of vocational training, said the FBI had told district officials the investigation was focused on people who took the tests for a commercial driver's license.

Of about 520 people who did not train at the school but took the test there from May 2004 through December 2005, over 300, or about 60 percent, had names that could be Middle Eastern in origin.

"They're just names that you would question as to how come there were so many people of those origins, because in the area we don't have that many Middle Eastern people," Eslinger said. Records obtained from the school by The Associated Press under Missouri's open records law showed a high percentage of surnames such as Ali, Fatah, Mohamed and Yusuf.

West Plains, about 100 miles southeast of Springfield near the Arkansas border, is a town of about 11,000 people in Howell County, where the population is over 95 percent white, according to the U.S. Census. The largest immigrant population is Hispanic.

"We don't have any community of Middle Eastern immigrants," Howell County Commissioner Larry Spence said, adding he was not aware of any similar immigrant groups in neighboring counties.

Are you tired of dumb old radio station's dribble....
Tuesday, February 14 2006
These "days" radio stations still accept payola and force feed you all sorts of junk and talk show dribble... one company owns 100s of stations if not 25 or more.   They push their political agenda by firing honest and outspoken performers as the case of Michael Gram's firing at WMAL in Washington D.C. by the Disney conglomerate.

The music is all the same... and often selected by a radio wannabe or the show attempts to be outrageous or outlandish.

But now... we have the internet...
Even TV can be the participants choice...for as little as $5 bucks a month you can get Internet TV and just about tell the cable TV companies to take a hike.

There are lots of free radio streams of many styles available on the internet.

NEW Nigerian Bank - email scam ....
Wednesday, July 27 2005

You should remember the scam that was going around a few years ago
about helping out some Prince in Nigeria with his millions of dollars
but he needs you to cash his check, or something like that.

Well we have a new one going around.

How I got it.... they plucked my email address from cars.com where we are
trying to sell a truck.     The email starts out with basic information, and
may even be preceeded by "feeler" emails with even less information to
gain your confidence or gather other information.
Then... some where along the line you would be asked to either send a
check or probably your banking information.   This could, and may be solicited through you trying to sell funiture, your computer or whatever.
If you get one of these emails send it off the the FBI tips  

Tell all your buddies about this scam.

Leftwing Liberals get it WRONG AGAIN !!!!
Tuesday, July 12 2005

Well, you know Dan Rather... well he had no bias.
And we know that the liberal left is smarter than all
of us fair minded humans... especially the hard working Americans
of the Eastern Shore's of DelMarVa. 

So the website of the Liberal Left Wing Conspiracy, radioleft.com
has chastised our fair community of Berlin Maryland in another
ignorant rant.

You will find their rant here.

And then the short and sweet (in opinion form) of what they
knew nothing about and chastised our fair community of Berlin, Maryland.
Here.

Of course they, radioleft.com, don't know the difference between Berlin,
Maryland, Ocean Pines, and a hole in the ground.

But that's ok... we're kind of used to it by now... thanks to Dan Rather
et al.....

06:12:17
Our condolences go out to the Sorce family of North Ocean City.
A traffic accident on Route 90 near St. Martin's Neck Road intersection

from her injuries.

The Sorce family are from Virginia and are part time residents of North

Our condolences and deepest sympathies go out to the Wright Family and
the Sorce family on their tragic loss, it has sadden our hearts deeply.
