I Know What I'm Doing This Weekend…
Whoo hoo! Missed this earlier today, but apparently the feds successfully infiltrated 10 out of 10 high-occupancy federal buildings with bomb parts and assembled them inside bathrooms and stuff. Let's roll, everyone!
It's really not fair – they were in plain clothes instead of wearing turbans and sunglasses.
Oh hey! A pipe bomb! Where I grew up many of these "infiltrated" mailboxes. But this doesn't really matter because A) pipe bombs in briefcases aren't going to do THAT much damage (in the heartless small-loss-of-life assessment of damage). And B) "Teh Terrorists" care less about hitting the 35 admins in the office pool at the vehicle reimbursement office of the department of homeland security than they do, say, a packed 6:00pm 6 Line train car.
I was out at my cousin's farm this weekend, the local Amish kids specialize in in 2 liter soda bottle, tinfoil and toilet bowl cleaner mailbox-busters. Impressive boom.
Yeah. Those were called "Works" bombs because they used the brand "The Works" for the sodium chloride part of the boom-boom. Then they all stopped selling Works so I'm not sure what they use now. After that you graduate to fertilizer.
In the western state where I grew up, 2 liter soda bottles, dry ice and water were used for the desired anti-mailbox effect. Don't those tinfoil bombs give off hydrogen gas?
If it's an "improvised" explosive device, why is there a plan?
THANK YOU! That has always bothered me. It demeans those who don't have fancy bombs built by a subsidiary of Halliburton.
By "fancy", do you mean "elaborate", or do you mean "built in a Jimmy Choo box"?
Why are they trying to blow up their own building? I don't like my job sometimes, but this seems extreme.
"When I came here, I made an analogy that we were a ship, and it takes 38 miles at sea to turn a ship, an aircraft carrier. I think we are probably on mile six, but we've certainly initiated the turn," he said.
Jesus Christ. I know how to make a pipe bomb, a matchstick bomb, and a really lethal stink bomb out of old apples.
You know, a REAL terrorist would be thinking about knocking out Perez Hilton. Or investing in him.
