The thwarted Illinois attack in this report was aimed at a federal courthouse that is literally a block away from my apartment. Scary.

Crazy stuff. This terrorist plot was doomed from the beginning though. Anyone dumb enough to take aim at Springfield, IL was not too bright to begin with.
Dallas I can understand, but Springfield? Did they get lost on the way to Chicago and say "Ah, **** it. This is close enough"? -

Thank God your safe Doc.
I would have been totally petrified, even after the fact.DrAstroZoom likes this. -
Dallas?
You haven't been here I have a feeling :lol:
People here would just as soon shoot a terrorist as eat breakfast.
Dang brother Steve, that is very close indeed :yes:
Glad they were able to thwart this threat.
I have to say, our homeland terrorist guys are definately doing their jobscnc66, dolphindebby and DrAstroZoom like this. -
It's a heavily populated area though no? Springifield has to be a pimple on a gnats *** in comparison.

Uhm, I think that's an ENTIRELY different thread all-together :shifty:cnc66, dolphindebby and DrAstroZoom like this.

Yeah, I see your point, although Downtown Dallas isn't nearly as congested as saayyyyyy Phoenix.
I think the Dallas thing was directed as a particular building cause of the it was a financial institution.
EDIT: Actually, the building was Fountain place which is a HUGE building, so yeah that did indeed play a part in it. -

Doc Z has a brickwall view from his window

thats weird. according to this new map released on FOX NEWS, the bomb target has been relocated.

Judging by the graphic provided, Dr. Z lives in a Fortress of Solitude. A veritable Bat Cave. He and his cape would have emerged from the attack unscathed.

Dude, the Dallas building is beautiful. That and being 60 stories tall alone makes it a mark.
-
thats because most asians have never seen a guy that tall.they probly assume the statue of him is "actual size" and are rightfully so amazed.:yes:
funny stuff aside we are glad you are ok doc.Frumundah Finnatic, cnc66 and DrAstroZoom like this. -
Yeah, I will vouch it is a very nice building and would indeed make a serious statement :yes:

Actually, that's not far from the truth. We live in an English basement, so the view out our window is half a brick wall.
We are surrounded by:
- to the west, our apartment complex courtyard;
- to the north, a kickass sandwich joint called "Two Olives Cantina";
- to the east, a popcorn shop, an art store and a Jimmy John's; and
- to the south, another apartment with a very vocal infant
So no, no Bat Cave. But there are three bars (including a sports bar with NFL Sunday Ticket) within a block of my apartment. So I have that going for me.NaboCane likes this. -
