Just reported on the 10 PM WBZ radio news broadcast:

FBI is seeking a rental type Ryder Van that was stopped trying to enter the parking garage at the Cambridge Mass Galleria mall at about 7 PM. When the back doors of the van were opened by security personnel, there were 6, 55 gallon drums duct taped to the vans walls along with gas type cans also taped to the walls.

The van then sped off. The FBI is asking for anyone seeing the van with possible license plate of 4789H7 to contact Police or the FBI.

Mine says 93 No bound by the Boston Globe bldg.

[Helix]

I just reconnected. It sounds better now. They're talking about sending cars to a bogus call

[John Jamieson]

NOT at the diesel pump!

[mississippi red-neck]

I retired from Texas Instruments in Houston in 1994.

Retired on disability in 1997. Had 32yrs. 56yrs. old this month.

I'm listening too, - just said something about a Ryder truck at a Mobil station. Did you hear it?

They stopped to go wee and pick up some Fritos and Twinkies.

[PianoMan]

ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!

[cajungirl]

Everytime I hear that "Loose lips sink ships" I get a chill. I know it is true. Makes me very angry at the congressmen who blab on briefings.

[JudyB1938]

Wow, blam, I didn't know that you were a Tincan Sailor! That is just too cool. All military personnel are heroes to me, especially fighter pilots - but it takes a special kind of person to serve aboard a submarine (in my opinion, anyway).

Here are some "war stories" that you might like to see.

It is getting a little crazy, I think!

[Diddle E. Squat]

a Ryder truck at a Mobil station

Wasn't that the title of a Waylon Jennings song?

[goodnesswins]

Ok, I'm going to get another glass of wine....

[concerned about politics]

Where are the news copters!

Waiting for the van to re-fuel for a better story???

[jonathonandjennifer]

Fertilizer would be much heavier than 4 pounds/gal, but you have to leave room for the fuel oil (6 pounds/gal).

I was just guessing with the 4lb/gal based on water at 7lb/gal. But would the fuel oil take up any space, or just fill the voids in the fertilizer?

[dhfnc]

Me too - be back shortly

[blam]

"Wow, blam, I didn't know that you were a Tincan Sailor!

Lol. Women! A tincan is a destroyer, a surface ship.

[RummyChick]

This place seems to beat the mainstream media with the news..Drudge must be out on the town tonight because he hasn't posted anything.

[Scott from the Left Coast]

Hey, get me one too.
