Here's another real belly laugh, from Triangle Fraternity. Found it at SoonerFans forum while looking for some smack talk for the game tomorrow. Leaving off the poster's name for attribution.

"Alright, I've finally gotten some inside information. This guy was a member of my fraternity. Several of the active members have been interviewed by the FBI, and the investigation seems to be winding down. A paraphrased summary from an alumni close to the active chapter:
Hinrichs was bright young man who was interested in rocketry, explosives, and military hardware, interests he'd had since childhood. He was involved with his friends and the fraternity. There is no hint he ever had any intention of killing himself or anyone else. He wasn't a loner nor did he ever express any idealogish political or religious beliefs, although he was born and raised a Lutheran. His future plans probably were along the lines of rocket science and he certainly had the mind and personality, if he was perhaps just a bit more social than the stereotypical Rocket scientist. He was a fine person in good standing and a dear friend to many. He will be missed.
I and the rest of the fraternity have been asked not to release any more details until basically the FBI has concluded its investigation. I just really felt the need to get this out for some of those here who felt the need to jump to such extreme conclusions."

Dontcha just love that the investigation "seems to be winding down"?
Ummm, if all these things are true, then shouldn't they be demanding that the FBI find the boy's killer, whoever did this awful thing to him?
LOL this is rich...
" There is no hint he ever had any intention of killing himself or anyone else"
Then why the bomb??? As you said, then this should be a murder investigation.
I also found it interesting they are talking about ideology again. First the father said he was "apolitical" but according to a FReeper who heard an interview with the father today he is now saying his son was "conservative".
I also laugh at the "jumping to extreme conclusions". Wasn't it OU itself that jumped to the "extreme conclusion" that this was a suicide only an hour or so after the event?
The stench of LUTEFISK in the air!

One thing that sticks out is that they promote the "he was not a loner, suicidal etc" Never mentions him being a Muslim convert.
I'd say they didn't really know much about the guy and their dissertation amounts to typical on campus relationships.
You can be damned sure I'll be paying a lot more attention to the hobbies of my fellow rocket scientists!
