I am reminded of the joke about what color eyes this terrorist had?
Blue... one blue this way and the other blew that way.

When I was in Germany, performing my national service, the Bader-Meinhof terrorists were rather active. One apparently placed a bomb in a metal wastebasket with ungentle hands.
He spattered over the roof of the terminal, and his hands left unburned paint shadows on the metal of the waste basket.
I always loved the mental image of that forensic picture.

It's very dark at night over there. Only a quarter moon. No streetlights.
Haji doesn't bother with paying attention to the color of the wire. The hot one sparks...
Hope he enjoys his 72 raisins.

"Soldiers also reported 15 holes lined up in a row, approximately two feet wide and six feet apart."
Anyone know of an explanation for this?
