*snort*

Buried at the end of the NY Daily News' "Gatecrasher" gossip column:

Confessed terrorist Zacarias Moussaoui testified that he used the code name Shaquille while plotting in Malaysia, because he thought it was an equally common Western and Muslim name. "Like Shaquille O'Neal, the basketball player," he said. So if Shaq finds himself on a no-fly list, that's why.

Yep. The very embodiment of a criminal mastermind.

A brother in my local is a props artisan for the national tour of "The Lion King." He is hassled everytime he has to leave for the next city via plane and even the corporate Mouse can't help him off the no-fly list.

His crime was having the name "John Thomas".
