Where oh where did the ricin go?
After shutting down offices for 3 days and Frist screaming that a terrorist was trying to kill him, everything stopped in its tracks. Last thing I read about it was that it was "mostly paper dust." What does that mean? It either was or wasn't.

1. It either was a bad news day
for them and they needed to change the subject or they found it it was a right winger who did it and that couldn't get out.

3. A big distraction
From the fact that Frist's staffers are being investigated for spying on the Dems.

It's an excellent question: Where did it go?

Perhaps it is the same elusive Amer-orrist who sent the anthrax . . .

4. Damn good question!
Jesus, I forgot about that! I guess I've been successfully conditioned.

5. it was later reported to be 99% paper dust
with tiny amounts of ricin.

It was some bullshit ploy to get sympathy for Frist the Cat Killer
