Frank, who is Paul McCrane?

sumi, you think not!Romano is working for the Chinese? I never got that impression. I thought Logan was backed by some sort of hyper-neocon group of American puppet masters who were for a much stronger defense, etc. and were trying to make America look more at risk than it is. That said, I do think Logan et al are the ones who let the Chinese know where Jack was going to be. In that sense, I do think they cooperated with the Chinese, to get Jack out of the picture.

There are people talking about their personal experiences with nailgun accidents in the hall. They are IT staff.

There may be a lesson in there somewhere.

OMG I don't want to be here at work.

Cindy -- even if Not!Romano isn't a lackey of the Chinese -- he's certainly forwarding their agenda. Why else was Jack Bauer on the hit list? Did you think that was coincidental? (Always a possibility.)

Frank! Yes! It would be so right if Not!Romano were killed by a falling black helicopter.

Me neither, Nora. But sad to say, I was actually looking forward to going to work this morning because it meant being able to avoid calls from annoying people in my co-op.

I'm with Cindy RE: the Chinese. Who is Not!Romano?

Paul McCrane played Dr. Romano on ER, and is now on 24, apparently.

Sumi asked (24): Why else was Jack Bauer on the hit list?

Whose hit list? He was on Logan's hit list because he knew too much about the plot and cover-up. He was on the Chinese hit list because of last season's embassy invasion.

Frank! Yes! It would be so

Hee. So, bonus points if a mutilated cow lands on him first.

jon - I thought that Jack was on Logan's hitlist BEFORE the assassination of Palmer. Why was he on it then?
