Yep we got things under control down here
The recent response to a marketing campaign in Boston has made me feeling completely secure knowing that the US government is ontop of the Terror (capital 'T') threat.
"It is outrageous, in a post 9/11 world, that a company would use this type of marketing scheme," Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino said in a statement.
"It is outrageous that anyone would be so paranoid and stupid," Joe Shouldice said to himself.
It's just that much sweeter that it revolves around an 80s style video character flipping the bird.
It was great, it was terrible.
At the time of writing http://www.interferenceinc.com/ (who was hired to do the promo) was down... I can only imagine the heated debates going on over there right now...

Joe, thank you for posting a story about this. It was nice to get some perspective on the story - since the only thing I heard was from CBC radio, whom made it sound like Boston was coming to an end, and that humanity as we know it is over forever.
By the way... Aqua Teen Hunger Force is an awesome show - and I hope that they don't get canned because of this.
