Welp, li'l ole P.H. is live on the national news. I think I just heard a news helo overhead. The Port of Hueneme -- No. 3 port in California and the one seaport between Long Beach and San Francisco Bay -- is closed down as I type, and traffic a block away is fouled up, while the bomb dogs and the Coast Guard see if there's anything to a scrawled graffito within a cargo hold that reads, "G.W., this nitroglycerin's for you and your Jewish buddies." The ship is a Guatemalan-registered banana boat; no word on what language the writing was in. I doubt there was any nitroglycerin on the cargo manifest.

This is within walking distance of my living room -- but somehow I'm not expecting to hear any loud boom.
