I feel safer: Homeland Security vs. San Francisco Bay Area Puppeteers Guild. Mark Frauenfelder:
Brian Stokes
says: "I kid you not. My beloved San Francisco Bay Area Puppeteers
Guild is under investigation by Homeland Security. According to their
latest newsletter, its assets have been frozen ever since my friend and
Treasurer Pam Brown resigned after 20 years and passed the miniscule
nestegg to a new bank account a few months ago. The bank apologizes but
legally can't do anything until Homeland Security determines this group
of puppet fans and professionals is not planning to attack our country.
"This is the Guild where Jim Henson met a young Frank Oz and Jerry
Juhl back in the 1960s. Not long ago, I was President, and before that,
Secretary.
"But now our government thinks it's harboring terrorists." Link
As far as i'm concerned, it's official; the US government has gone gaga.
