Fun with conspiracy

I really doubt one thing has to do with the other, but isn't it a weird coincidence that Austin's Congress Avenue is covered with about 60 dead birds on the same morning that an unexplained smell of gas blankets most of New York City?

I'm sure glad we got that "War on Terror" thing knocked out we don't have to worry about this sort of thing anymore.

In the meantime, has anyone checked Area 51?

See! The Bushies have gotten to you with all their blather of the threat of terrorism. The odds of a terrorist threat are SOOOO low. My paranoia instantly leapt to a global pandemic! Of course the likelihood of a pandemic that can take out humans and avians is pretty low, even that much-publicized avian flu had little likelihood of getting totally out of control, but a boy can dream, a boy can dream...

Dead birds, what the hell? Is this the apocalypse?

E: I'm personally hoping for something along the lines of scorched Earth sorta thing, so we can all ride around in monster trucks and hang out with Auntie Entity and Master/Blaster. Two men enter, one man leaves!

Lisa: Is that some freaky shit or what? I'm willing to bet some jerk poisoned them, but what's next? Tap-dancing cows? If Bush goes on the air and shows everyone the 666 on his head, I'm outta here.

Don't worry, Bush can't count nearly that high.

I have to say that my first thought was also more along the lines of avian flu and less of terrorism. I suppose that just comes with living in Asia where avian flu is still a reality as opposed to a forgotten headline.

People in the States like to have someone to blame; they don't like some little microbe they can't see causing problems for them. It's the same thing with mad cow disease - people just refuse to believe or acknowledge it could happen here.

Still, my money's on poison. Anyone want to start a betting pool?
