Herr Bloomberg will probably want to send the troops into local bars, round up any tobacco terrorists.

They act like they're acting on something more specific than we've been told.

You're not kidding. I walked through Times Square on my way to Penn Station and it looked combat ready. They had three Hazmat trailers, what looked like a tank painted police blue, a command center, the the bomb squad and plenty of cops (and I'm not exaggerating) -- all lined up in front of the Good Morning America building right in the heart of Times Square.

40+ Years ago I used to sleep nights on the benches in Penn Station. (It was safe and legal to do so then)

Bloomberg's bad, but not bad enough to go back to that. I guess they must still allow it in the San Francisco train station, though.

I was a sub sailor in New London, Connecicut. Went to the city to party, no money for a room. I had a number of mates with me too.

NO BULLETS!!!

What is wrong with Bloomberg and Pataki? They want a sequel to "Black Hawk Down"?
