  - there's a day for this? I thought fans celebrated every day as though it were a star wars day -- nm - CQ May 4, 13:00 3
    - We do but today is a day you can where your costume to work, etc. -- nm - Darth Spawn May 4, 13:02 2

- I think I lost a few pounds today. work was a bitch. I'm exhausted -- nm - CQ May 4, 12:46
Something is definitely up with my dog, the old vet and the previous owner. - Cerean Gon May 4, 12:42 16
- that is really weird. but i doubt it has anything to do with something the dog did - kare May 4, 12:55
- The Borne Pupency. nm -- nm - groiny May 4, 12:48 3
  - you're proud of that one, aren't you. - Darth Mel May 4, 12:49 2
    - I've had better. - groiny May 4, 12:50 1
      - keep telling yourself you look thin in those pictures. - Stupid Terrier May 4, 12:55
- I never heard that before and I've been working with animals for a few years now. - Krusty May 4, 12:47 3
  - I'm going to talk to my vet and she what she recommends. - Cerean Gon May 4, 12:51 2
    - At the very least you may be able to get an idea of what kind of cases would prompt the record to be sealed. -- nm - Salacious Fuzz May 4, 12:54
    - Or any other possible conditions. Very odd. I hope everything turns out well for the dog. :-) -- nm - Krusty May 4, 12:52
- we were told the dog's chip had no record,,,I think they do that when the dog is given up in a shelter -- nm - grafst zeipplin May 4, 12:47 1
  - our do g was a cronic run away and killed some farm animals the last time. - grafst zeipplin May 4, 12:49
- the dog has aids and is a former porn star -- nm - secret file contents May 4, 12:45
- doggie protection program -- nm - Beaker May 4, 12:43 1
  - Ex-mafia? -- nm - mara May 4, 12:53
- TSA will let him on a plane so it's not all bad... -- nm - Darth Mel May 4, 12:43
- hmmm...possible criminal case against the previous owner involving the dog in some way? custody dispute? - znufrii May 4, 12:43
Krusty - they've stated they were waiting to see if he'd give away any more information, like by making a phone call or something. -- nm - Reagen May 4, 12:42 24
- I just don't like the idea of letting someone who tried to set off a bomb being allowed to board a plane. - Krusty May 4, 12:44 23
  - "Hi, I'm on the plane and it's about to take off. Meet me at the arrivals area." -- nm - Count Zoorku May 4, 12:47
  - if you've got marshalls on the plane, and you already know he's incompetant, what's going to happen? -- nm - Reagen May 4, 12:45 18
    - and if they intentionally let him on the plane I'm sure they had marshalls watching him every second. - Darth Mel May 4, 12:48 12
      - probably every seat around him. they wouldn't let an innocent bystander be close enough to become a hostage. -- nm - Count Zoorku May 4, 12:50 11
        
        "Geez...these Americans are big..." -- nm - Stupid Terrier May 4, 12:54
        
        You might be overestimating their manpower and competency. -- nm - Bery the Hutt May 4, 12:54 9
        
        I'm pretty sure they can scrounge up 4 guys for something like this. - Reagen May 4, 12:58 8
        
        I dunno, I always thought of Air Marshals as being a scarcer commodity than that. -- nm - Bery the Hutt May 4, 12:59 7
        
        It's a dude that tried to set off a bomb. They'll call guys in. - Reagen May 4, 13:01 6
        
        You assume they had enough time. He didn't buy this ticket days in advance. - Ender May 4, 13:05 2
        
        That's true, but there's no evidence they weren't. - Reagen May 4, 13:09 1
        
        I'm firmly in the "we don't know nearly enough to make a judgement either way" camp. -- nm - Ender May 4, 13:13
        
        I just don't see how it's any better/safer than apprehending him. -- nm - Bery the Hutt May 4, 13:01 2
        
        Better, because he might give more info accidentally. - Reagen May 4, 13:03 1
        
        Interesting thoughts. I see what you're saying. - Bery the Hutt May 4, 13:04
    - I just don't get why you would even take a chance. If we was going to call someone he would have done it before getting on the plane. - Krusty May 4, 12:48 3
      - not necessarily, he might have thought he was home free once he was on the plane... -- nm - znufrii May 4, 12:49 2
        
        He probably thought that as soon as he made it through security. -- nm - Krusty May 4, 12:50 1
        
        to some extent but there would have been a big exhalation once he was seated. -- nm - Count Zoorku May 4, 12:51
    - this could make for a great In Plane Sight episode -- nm - Bery the Hutt May 4, 12:46
  - what would've been *hilarious* is if they brought the wrong plane back to the gate and allowed his to take off... -- nm - znufrii May 4, 12:45 2
    - "But what Mr. Bomberman didn't realize when he boarded the plane, is that this was a direct flight. One way. Final Destination ... The Twilight Zone." -- nm - Rod Serling si May 4, 12:47
    - Well, then he's in Dubai and you get to do all kinds of nasty stuff to him. -- nm - Ender May 4, 12:46
if he wantedt to nail his ex I can't think of many worst places to take her than a baseball game -- nm - Beaker May 4, 12:41 4
- Isn't there a baseball park that has an attached hotel? - Salacious Fuzz May 4, 12:43 1
  - Sky Dome. -- nm - Darth Spawn May 4, 12:48
- Unless baseball makes her girl parts light up. -- nm - Darth Spawn May 4, 12:42

*Google's Russell Hantz* - Ha! Bery - you guys do look similar. - Krusty May 4, 12:39 3
- I'm tempted to go look for photos of myself where I think I'm looking chubby. I can't imagine that's a good idea. :) -- nm - Bery the Hutt May 4, 12:42 2
  - (I prefer to think that I look like Greg Grunberg, but still. Thanks for thinking I'm more fit than I am :) ) -- nm - Bery the Hutt May 4, 12:42 1
    - You look like a normal dude, not overweight and not skinny. -- nm - Krusty May 4, 12:45

  - [deleted]
  - *whistles innocently* nm, -- nm - groiny May 4, 12:52
- that's pretty damn ridiculous. -- nm - CQ May 4, 12:49
- Sounds pretty shady, but as others have said baseball games aren't usually hook-up points. - Inigo May 4, 12:46 1
  - c'mon. every dude knows there needs to be a bit of wining, dining, baseballgaming first. -- nm - kare May 4, 12:56
- [deleted] 11
  - Yeah, that's just not right. -- nm - JaxJaxBinks May 4, 12:50
  - Ooooh. He never told her about this ex at all? That's a tree's shadow on a hot summer day shady. - Inigo May 4, 12:48
  - what's the over/under on how soon until there's a divorce filing? -- nm - znufrii May 4, 12:46 2

      - you're a good friend, Jack. -- nm - douchebag's wife May 4, 12:48
  - yeah, that's douchbagery at its finest -- nm - obilque-wan kenobi May 4, 12:45
  - [deleted]
- Does she know the ex? Are they on speaking terms? - JaxJaxBinks May 4, 12:42
- so: the douchenozzle is inviting an ex gf to a baseball game, unbeknownst to the douchebag's wife - kare May 4, 12:40 2
  - sorry. douchenozzle and douchebag are synonomous in this case -- nm - kare May 4, 12:41 1
    - They usually are. -- nm - JaxJaxBinks May 4, 12:44
- Is she a baseball fan? And would want to go? -- nm - amoxy May 4, 12:39
