Just damn.

If you want on the new list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

Good thing my late grandpa didn't buy that couch... BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPPPP BOOOM!

"Only 200 grams were used in the Lockerbie bombings..."

Puhleeze. This piker ought to know that there's a world of difference between a 747 with a pressurized cabin cruising at 400 knots at 20,000+ feet and his bloody sofa.

Which IS it?

Dynamite?

TNT?

Well? They're two DIFFERENT explosives.

Sheesh -- reporters...

Only 200 grams were used in the Lockerbie bombings

This is crap that has been repeated too often.

It was a suitcase with at least 40 lb of Semtek in it.

200 grams would have had to have been placed directly on a structural member or a fuel tank to do the damage that was done to that aircraft

Is the Baader-Meinhoff gang running a furniture store?

I didn't know that "lazy boys" were that dangerous.

Explosive surprise found in old sofa...

In 1999, I had an old sofa, which had previously belonged to my parents, which I gave to a family I knew. When they got the aforementioned sofa to their home, they decided to dig out the little odds and ends which were shaking around in the bottom.

Imagine my surprise when my they presented to me my high school class ring; found within the furnature; which I hadn't seen since my HS graduation in '90.
