I just got back into Honolulu as a stop on our cruise. We were anchored off of Kona when the terrorist's hit. Since we are a US registered SS, we were put on tight security. Other than bitterness and anger, my thoughts on it were: 1) Airport security is a Joke 2) Cockpit Security is a joke 3) The pilots were told to cooperate with terrorists in the past. I am sure they won't in the future 4) We will have to have armed guards on planes from now on.

>> i specifically requested to be in the first group recalled. If I'm reading this right, you better start packing. Local U.N. staff have been paid their salaries and it was likely there would only be a skeleton staff of U.N. officials left in Kabul and other cities around the country. Many other smaller non-government organizations and aid groups are also preparing to pull out of Afghanistan. The U.N. relocation is expected to be completed by Thursday, a statement said. cnn.com Looks like show time will be on Friday. uf
