Default Feds Delay Airliner Flight After Psychic's Vision

Feds Delay Airliner Flight After Psychic's Vision

Nothing Suspicious Found On Board



POSTED: 1:44 p.m. EST March 27, 2004
UPDATED: 1:48 p.m. EST March 27, 2004


FORT MYERS, Fla. -- A flight from Fort Myers, Fla., to Dallas was canceled after officials were told by a psychic that a bomb might be on board.

Nothing was found.

A Transportation Security Administration official said the warning was unusual, but "in these times, we can't ignore anything."

American Airlines Flight 1304 was searched Friday crews using bomb-sniffing dogs. By the time they were finished, the airline crew had exceeded its work hours and the flight was canceled.

Officials would not say where the tip came from, or to whom it was made.

In other news, psychics have predicted that all those intending to vote for Bush will be afflicted by a terrible plaugue. For God sakes, people, stay home and protect yourself on election day.

I was referring to the fact that the effects of the Bush Presidency has affected all of us.

Not like this psychic thing would be anything new, though. Replace your crystal ball with clear-cut political theories and meager intelligence information, call it an assessment of threats and a vision for the future - and you'll have the current policy in Washington. Of course, not everyone in Washington resort to eerie subvocal droning, or wave their arms around or take to using cheesy smoke- effects, or conjure up demons or speak with spirits to make their customers happy. But the comparison holds pretty well nonetheless.
