This photograph was shot just moments ago in the arrivals area in Louisville International Airport. They seem to have the security level at orange (high). I wonder why?

Probably because I told them that you were going to be passing through the airport. Should I not have done that?

The world is on standby at the moment. Even the london coppers are still edgy after the bombings so airports are quick to act when something seems a bit off kilter.
I would rather people edgy and alert than sleeping when the world gets shook up again.
