    It's like telling the scorpion to stop stinging the frog.

    It's his nature.

    CNN is ridiculous. Over under on Zucker out... 1 year.

    So I'm thinking of some way these guys aren't American, and while that's certainly possible... I'm thinking if it walks like a duck... Right?

    It was Wolf Blitzer who said that. He's had a bad week.

    Serious question: Why don't y'all just ban this foof? We all know his M.O. by now. What's the point of letting him stick around?

    Plus, what does he expect the answer to be?
    "Awww, man. You got us. We were going to hunt these guys down, prosecute them, probably give them the death penalty and hope all this goes away quietly. But you, sir, had the courage to call us on it. I bow to you, sir! Good show! We would've gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for you meddling journalists."
    I love how these guys claim that they have to ask the questions that the "real" journalists won't. In actuality, the "real" journalists work on those sorts of things behind the scenes and aren't fucking stupid enough to tip their hand in a public setting.

    I'm thinking it's gonna be a rough next 48 hours for every guy under 30 with a big honker in the U.S. of A.

    So, if you live in the Boston area and look sort of like one of these guys, what do you do?

    Go to the police or FBI and say, "Here I am. But it's not me."?

    I'm worldly-wise and street-smart.
    Spent 10 years a pickpocket all around the Middle East and southern Europe.
    I know exactly who and what these rapscallions are.

    (I just made that up.)

    If this is a D_B I apologize, but the African American woman minister at the memorial service is Liz Walker, who was the most popular local news anchor in Boston in the 1980s and early 1990s.
