News from the permanent tinhat throng

[CornField]

I just had a chat with one of my neighbors. We fondly refer to him as 'Felix X-File' because he finds conspiracy theories everywhere. I thought I'd share his latest:

The Bush administration is all out of the country because we are all about to be infected by the avian flu. It will be transmitted on Thanksgiving Day through the holiday turkey. He says it is Operation Big Bird.

So, now ya know.

8. Not that I'm aware of... however

If there ever was some sort of emergency, I'm headed to his house. I know the guy must have gas masks, bottled water and who knows what else. :)

He really is a good guy... just kinda on the paranoid side of life.

16. kind of like Dale on King of the Hill? eom

[CornField]

17. LOL -- Yeah, that's exactly it.

I think he must read every conspiracy theory out there. I know for a while he stopped using light bulbs because he thought the government could watch him. Another time he brought us distilled water because he was certain there was something in the public water supply.
