I think the terrorists might have won

Because there isn't another morale-killing act as effective and as depressing as preventing all airline passengers from purchasing duty free liquor. Hello! I know that extra large, extra cheap bottle of Absolut is the only thing I look forward to when I'm faced with the prospect of crammed seats, a smelly fat guy down with the flu who'll inevitably sit next to me as dictated by Murphy's Law and overpriced sandwich that somehow costs $2.00 more when they're sold away from the ground. Discarding a few bottles of shampoo or prescription drugs isn't going to faze America. Being forced to put their laptops, cellphones, Blackberrys, iPods in their checked-in luggage isn't going to faze America. But the prospect of a dry DFS?! Blasphemy!

Fuck! This better stop by the time I head off to Boston. I need my vodka for my housewarming party.

Here's the latest Everyday Osama. Actually, I think I'm going to channel this rage into another strip.

We totally need to do a strip on this. Maybe something about how when Sam flies, he loves to give himself a makeover, complete with leave-in shampoo, face creams and toothpaste? Then of course, he gets sauced.
Could this be the strip where he flies an airplane into an airplane?

At first, I thought our blog has finally attained the level of popularity that would interest spammers. and I was a wee bit excited.

Turns out this is a legit message for Chris.

At first I thought random sites were linking us or something, and I was excited too. Mind you, I'm still excited about these hardwood AF1's. Did you guys check the link? Oh. My. God. I will own those shoes one day. Mark my words.

Hey, I just thought of something else. Osama's on a flight, possibly on his way to some sort of fan-convention for a tv show (Days of our lives?). He burps and a little puke comes up. He takes out his toothpaste (or maybe some scope?) to get rid of the pukey taste and everyone on the plane freaks out. Good? Bad? Possible? Let me know.

Iris, looks like you're not the only one who loves the preflight boozing: http://www.cbc.ca/story/canada/national/2006/08/16/dutyfree-airport.html

Duh! Who doesn't like pre-flight boozing?!

Seven shops closed at Toronto's Pearson International Airport, leaving just five open in the three terminals.

Those five store better remain open when I get there.
