302: Web Savvy Wolf

Ah, ye of little faith. I got off the ground! Anyway you sound great John Hey by the way um...I'm gonna make it official now Okay I am Adam Curry THE LONE WOLF That's going to be my new signature Everywhere i go I'M THE LONE WOLF EVERYBODY THE LONEEE WOLFF What a meme fest this past couple days We've been seeing on the television. You know, ABC News is still the best John if you want some real entertainment this is of course the Disney guys they do know how to do it They know how to put some good ass entertainment together Well what are ya talking about?

Before we go into thanking people, and since it's a kind of shorter list today I did want to...I just can't resist. I have to play this Fox News piece which is the meme-fest of all meme fests Which is the reason why I'm calling myself The Loner Can you bear with me and listen to the uh, the lone wolf clip? Or are you just so sick and tired of Al Qaeda that- As long as I don't have to keep listening to that sound effect. But it's my new theme! It's my new thing! Wherever I get my ringtone... When you hit my website You know, just go to curry dot com. I want to be known- It doesn't even sound like a wolf. It sounds like some guy trying to sound like a wolf. No, no, that's a real lone wolf

Does Al-Awlaki have the sort of power and following that Ben Laden did? He's a rock star and he is web savvy. Well, I think what is important to remember in all of these groups Is that there is violent ideology that drives them That they use to recruit It predates Bin Laden it predate Al Qaeda And so really that is what helps them organize What helps them recruit and gets people committed To kill themselves on the way toward killing Americans and other targets So yes, he will have those tools available He has tools to under recruit. He is, as I said web savvy and is recruiting people even in the United States to be his assets to conduct attacks. How do you think he's recruiting me John? It could happen! And so what keeps national security types like yourself awake at night? Is it Anwar al-Awlaki or is it the lone wolf homegrown terrorist back here

Well, I don't think that anybody can really sleep well. What show is this? I didn't hear you earlier. Fox. What are we playing here?! This is a bunch of propagandistic bullcrap! That's why I'm playing it so you can see what the memes are! I told you it was a meme fest! This is the whole point... But what is it that were listening to? Fox! It's just Fox News! Oh brother.... Yeah but this is important because these are the memes The New Al Qaeda Web Savvy American Homegrown Lone Wolf It's all in one This is pathetic. This is worse than MSNBC! Yeah, hard to believe I like the web savvy though thing though...I think that really does it for me your web savvy and you just listen to this guy come on this is important to understand and I'll never talk about it again until they arrest me. Tonight that they have the whole map of the threats against us mastered It's really quite an overwhelming brief that the president and his national security staff get every morning

So I think we fit the bill, John. Weak psyches? Weak psyches and people who've turned the corner to become lone wolves recruited and we're Americans and we're web savvy! Well that would describe you since you call yourself The Lone Wolf. Aaaaaahhhh! Gonna show my support by donating to No Agenda Imagine all the people who could do that Oh yeah, they'd be fab Yeah on NO AGENDA So we have a few donors, not too many. We were waiting for a fall off and I think this qualifies. You know we could be pushing a little harder since on the 21st of May the date of the rapture

So there's a little tidbit I picked up. Play the see something say something clip and tell me if you can figure out what the tidbit is? And we continue to look for other ways but we're really going to focus on what is the local law and how can we empower local law enforcement in particular, to prevent a lone wolf from being successful Thank you. Let me just say that I was very pleased to hear you mention the See Something Say Something campaign, the chairman and I had to work so hard to get that through when it came to the transportation sector
