NORMAN, Okla. -- Police detonated a suspicious package at a University of Oklahoma parking facility late Tuesday afternoon, officials said.

Officials said that nobody was hurt when police detonated the package at the Asp Avenue Facility, which is a six-level parking structure located west of Oklahoma Memorial Stadium.

There is no word as to what the package contained.

Already 2 days old - just a little blip. Add this to the Oklahoma incident collection.

Oklahoma, home of the Iraqi terrorists who helped destroy the Murrah Building.

Yes, Moussoui........and I believe that Nick Berg also attended OU....and actually used one of the terrorists computers at one time.

Don't know how to search back but perhaps some freeper can figure out how to rehash the connections.

Reading Jayna Davis' book was quite a revelation. And that the NYSlimes made sure she was fired sent chills of fear thru me.

And yet the entire terror issue hs been ignored by our voters.

The dem voters never cared about security. They only want their increase in the minimum wage and let the country burn. But our republicans.....g-d help them for their shortsighted venality.....if that's a word.

One of the funniest things I have seen in recent years was when a competitor of mine shipped a box to a customer, and it was not marked properly. FedEx just dropped it by the door and left. When no one could figure out what it was, they destroyed it in a bomb truck. It was my competitor's demo unit. LOL!

Funny stories with bombs are rare, but you got one. lol

[LurkedLongEnough]

A voting machine?

[TommyDale]

Yeah, I laughed for days about that one. I think it was like a $30,000 system, too. Never ship an unmarked box to a military facility... :-)

Here's another.

RAF Croughton, UK, 1980. A purposely unnamed officer noticed a "suspicious package" laying on the floor outside the British Postal Office - aka telephone office, which was housed in our building. EOD was called, and they put on quite a show, including detonating the package in a field a few hundred feet away.

The result was pink, blue and white confetti from the package of billing forms!

LOL!
