A little bit of Mardi Gras in my soul

What? Oil of Olay on a 747? Must be Al Qaeda!


So apparently there are a few people left in the world who aren't afraid to say what they think. And mostly they think that George Bush and his Homeland Security efforts (and the UK version of both) are a feckin' joke. Leave it to an Irishman to put things so succinctly.

RyanAir to UK govt: ease off on security or we sue
RyanAir a leading European discount airline, has threatened to sue the British government if it doesn't ease off on its security measures.
Michael O'Leary, the outspoken chief executive of Ryanair, described the new restrictions as "farcical Keystone Cops security measures that don't add anything except to block up airports", as he issued the ultimatum.

Mr O'Leary ridiculed the notion of searching five- or six-year-old children and elderly people in wheelchairs going to Spain. Such scenes, he said, would have "terrorists laughing in the caves of Afghanistan".
