" LIKE ICE CREAM FROM TRITON
[1] Besides the liquid nitrogen, no special ingredients were used in this experiment. [2] The non-cryogenic ingredients were combined in a mixing bowl. [3] The nitrogen was added a cup at a time. Note the use of heavy cryo gloves—this was not an occasion for oven mitts. [4] The concoction was stirred thoroughly and continuously to keep an unbreakable crust from forming. [5] The ice cream was ready to eat when smooth and free of lumps."

Any recipe with liquid nitrogen has to be good

I tend to think this is just more fear mongering by the Shrub administration. Clearly Al Qaeda arent the sharpest tools in the shed, but they would have to be absolute RETARDS to attempt THAT sucker punch again. Let’s see... 5 terrorists vs. 300 other passengers? What do you think is going to happen to these fuck-tards if they stand up and try to take control of an airplane like that again??

Passenger - "Hmmm... I can sit and do nothing and die, or I can get out of this seat and help deck and seriously FUCK UP a few of bin Ladens boys... Hmmmm..."

I sure do hope they try hijacking one of MY flights in the next few days to and from DEFCON. I'm ANXIOUS to meet al Qaeda.

Bullshit. If anything, the do not call list will HELP this industry by letting them target only those people that want to be called. Though I cant imagine that would be a large slice of the pie - "Please call me to pitch your wares - I LIKE being interrupted in the middle of dinner by random, faceless sales people!" Maybe they DO have reson to be concerned after all! :)
