CALLING FOR BACKUP?

For the past few days, I've been immersed in the 5th season of 24. Man, I am really impressed with all the flashy stuff that CTU (Counter Terrorism Unit) can do in that show - using cellphones/PDAs to hack into other PCs, to download data from chips instantly, all those high tech stuff. It's no wonder that show is a hit. I've noticed how big a role that cellphones play in 24, from being a constant communication line of the major characters to being the constant source of data. Without them, the show would be limping.
This photo was taken several meters away from Araneta Coliseum two weekends ago when WWE was in town. The place was packed with security, firetrucks, and police. Talk about a lot of protection for a group of muscle-bound wrestlers (or as WWE likes to call them, superstars).
