A SWIMMING MIT RAT FROM HAWAII



STAR SIMPSON

SOPHMORE - MIT

[CougarGA7]

It’s still possible to beat security. Someone who is dedicated enough to do it will find a way. I’ve always said that eventually they will find a way to take down or over a plane using only the items already on the aircraft.

My feeling (especially after reading her profile) is that she was probably wearing a piece of homemade “edgy” art jewelry.

Stuck through some fleshy part no doubt.

[StarCMC]

child of hippies, most likely.

HEY! Not necessarily! LOL

[supremedoctrine]

I don’t care what she did—on the basis of that pic and profile page, I forgive her for now, but of course, I’m not a prosecutor.
She is the cerebral version of Julia Butterfly Hill.

I spy with my little eye, a Mao T-shirt

[cll]

Just trying to outperform the “Don’t tase me, bro” guy.

[elizabetty]

I thought you had to be smart to go to M.I.T.

[savedbygrace]

Difficult to say for sure from that pic, but she might be not guilty.

;-)

(Hey, it’s a joke. Don’t take it so seriously.)

[from occupied ga]

from her profile:

In a word: Star.

In a sentence, I'm an inventor, artist, engineer, and student, I love to build things and I love crazy ideas.

Egotistical little twit (or something that rhymes with twit anyway) isn't she, but I guess she's telling the truth about the "crazy ideas"

[ketsu]

hurmph. can’t direct link to a picture in the slide show. go to the middle of the slides and look for a guy in a red t-shirt.

[Erik Latranyi]

I’ve always said that eventually they will find a way to take down or over a plane using only the items already on the aircraft.

I agree with your first premise. They will find a way to take a plane down.

I disagree with your second premise...with a single caveat...they become hired pilots or falsify IDs to act like a pilot.

Hijackers who openly proclaim their intentions will never control the plane for long.

[LIConFem]

Obviously, MIT made a rather serious error in reviewing her application and credentials. As far as I’m concerned, this girl belongs in the “Too Stupid to Live” category.

[toldyou]

“....while traveling the world and saving the planet from evil villains with my delivered-just-in-time gadgets.”

[StarCMC]

The name "Star" screams rich narcissistic hippie,

Sheesh!! thanks a lot! I've known 2 other "Star"s and we're all quite normal with quite normal parents, thankyouverymuch!

[Aquinasfan]

I wouldn’t have blamed the cops if they shot him. What an idiot.

[ketsu]

Egotistical little twit (or something that rhymes with twit anyway) isn't she, but I guess she's telling the truth about the "crazy ideas"

Heck, weren't you 19 once? If I hadn't discovered the booze I might have written junk like that on the net too. Now fake bombs in airports...

Heh... so your parents were taking the "boy named sue" method? just kidding ;) I'll take my foot out of my mouth now.
