The Worst Terrorist Ever?

Now, I want to preface this post by saying Saturday’s Times Square Bomb Scare could have had disastrous effects. Not only could there have been deaths involved, but catastrophic consequences for the rest of the world. With that said, a lot of this story is just not sitting right with me, and I can’t help but thinking that Faisal Shahzad might be the worst terrorist ever.

First, and most importantly, Shahzad’s plan fizzled out along with the bomb he tried to detonate. I don’t know a lot about bombs, so I can’t really say that they are 100 percent foolproof, but to add insult to injury, Shahzad parked his Nissan Pathfinder right in front of a NY street vendor. Are you serious? Those guys have been at their posts for years and – even on the busiest block on the planet – know when something is out of place. Shahzad loses points for the faulty bomb, but even more for not doing his location scout.

Quote of the Day

In honor of my mom, who’s always telling me how amazing I am, even though I never believe her:

“I didn’t belong as a kid, and that always bothered me. If only I’d known that one day my differences would be an asset, then my early life would have been much easier.” – Bette Midler

There’s No “I” in Team: Your Weekly DWTS Recap

Ah! The team dance! This is one of my favorite nights on Dancing with the Stars because I love to see the dynamics between the celebrities as they practice and compete together. Remember when all the girl pros wanted to kill Susan Lucci a few seasons ago? Remember the Single Ladies Mambo (see video above)? The team Cha-cha-cha (to Madonna and Gaga!) promises a lot of fun!

Erin Andrews, Quickstep: Len did not like Erin’s Samba last week, and Maks promises a proper Quickstep this week. And he’s also promising to take his pants off. Erin’s not having it. I’m a little sick and tired of them fighting. I need something else from this couple. Hmmm, they took their clothes off, but had other ones on. How cheeky! But the stripping has messed Erin up and she lost her timing. She’s definitely quick-stepping, but the hold and what-not was weird. Ugh, Len liked it. Called it her best dance…I need to take some classes on what these different dances are. It’s times like these I think this show is rigged.
Score: 9, 9, 9

I really hate Brooke’s necklace.
