I was just reading the news and saw that Iraq's leadership rejected the President's ultimatum. We're at an orange level here.

I work in a state building. Since they upped the threat level to code orange, EVERYONE has to go through the metal detectors, show their ID badges, and get molested by the wand. :)

I went out for a cig break. I was about to slide my badge and the security guard stopped m and inspected by badge thoroughly, like I was buying booze or something. Dumbass saw me walk out and said hi to me. But its cool, they are just doing their job.

This morning this Middle Eastern looking dude in a black trench coat and metal brief case came in. The security guards were all over he a$$ as soon as he stepped in. They had him take off his coat and put the brief case through the metal detector. Then had him open the brief case and the security guard used the wand on him. There were 2 security guards and a state trooper doing all this. Felt kind of bad for the....thought they were gonna take him in a back room and do a cavity search or something....
