#1 Doesn't sound like "boys being boys" since the Delaware County bomb squad confirmed that it was a real explosive.

Looks like the jihadists want to export the insurgency to America. But didn't the "experts" tell us that the insurgents only wanted to get the "occupier" out of the Middle East? Does this mean the U.S. is the "occupier" of North America?

#2 Doesn't sound like "boys being boys." Also sounds like binary liquid explosives. Sounds like the work of trained terrorists. These things can be dangerous if you don't know what you are doing. You might get yourself blown up if you don't know what you are doing. On the other hand if these slackjaws are jihadists, they probably don't mind since they are desperately seeking 72 virgins.

#3 That's why I asked the question, gentlemen. Once upon a time boys did make explosives with their junior chemistry sets, and my brothers went through a stage when they put pennies on the railroad tracks, so I wasn't sure if this was at that level.

#4 Well TW, once upon a time this might have been boys being boys. Growing up my paternal grand father worked for the Santa Fe railroad.

We "boys" had access to some really neat stuff. They were signal loads and they were small explosives that attached to the rails.

They were used as signaling devices, both for work crews and the engineers of the locomotives.

One could get into all sorts of mischief with them.

These days, well, probably cretinous jihadi scum out to pollute our vital essence. Kill them. We are an atrocity or three away from being able to go weapons free on these villains. I can hardly wait.
