2. How many parrots?

When the headline has to say how many Americans were involved, I am reminded of the news for parrots: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20Kx9CyYPAQ
A tragedy is a tragedy, no matter how many Americans (or parrots or gibbons or wombats) were involved.

3. Wonder if any of the 152 people are featured in any Wikileaks leaks.

5. Probably guys showing up for private contractor jobs somewhere...

No jobs here, so many over them go there.
My brother, case in point- he has applied
to go as a flyboy for some company doing
"humanitarian" flights.
My guess would be they are transporting heroin or
cash for the powers that be.

I don't want him to go, but he is desperate for a job.
