Ok, it's the 14th, has the world ended yet?

They're trying.....

Of course, people will say the Orange Alert is a sham...


Two Middle Eastern-looking men fled after trying to buy a crop-dusting airplane at a Massachusetts airport, prompting an anti-terror probe by the FBI and state police.

The men, who had "thick accents," made the unusual request late Tuesday afternoon at the Aviators of New England flight school at the Beverly, Mass., airport, about 18 miles north of Boston, reported the Salem News.

"To ask for one of those planes is totally off the wall," said Victor Capozzi, the owner of another airport business, General Aviation Services, who noted that crop-dusters are rarely used in the Northeast anymore.

Shortly after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, the FAA grounded thousands of crop-dusters across the country for two days, fearing they could be used in a biological or chemical attack. Hijacker Mohammad Atta reportedly made numerous trips to rural airports to learn about crop-dusters, and a crop-duster manual was found in the possession of "20th hijacker" Zacarias Moussouai.

The Massachusetts paper said yesterday that state police confirmed the investigation of Tuesday's incident, which comes as the U.S. remains on high-alert status, but would not provide further details.

The men asked about using an old crop-duster that had been converted to tow banner ads. After questioning by Aviators of New England owner Richard Little, however, the two fled the airport in a pickup truck with Massachusetts plates, according to airport sources.

Little then called the police.

The owner of the small plane, Steve LeBel, said all of the crop-dusting equipment had been removed.

"It wouldn't even serve the purpose they're claiming to want to do," he said.

The former chairman of the Airport Commission, Paul Vitale, said Beverly Airport has not had a working crop duster in many years.

Employees at the airport and officials said they were advised by authorities to not speak about the incident.

Beverly Mayor Thomas Crean said only that the investigation is ongoing and "extremely sensitive."

According to Beverly Police records, officers investigated a "suspicious activity" at 5:42 p.m. on Tuesday then turned the matter over to Massachusetts State Police, who said the "matter remained under investigation," and declined further comment.

The Salem News reported that sources also said the FBI was brought in to investigate, but the federal agency does not comment on pending investigations.



:D
 
We get to pick what we do first?



Alright, boys, start lining up, because before I die, someone had damn well better give me that elusive g-spot orgasm! I want to cum with a man in me, and I don't mean his fingers or his tongue!
