Quote:A robot met its end near Coors FieldFull article http://www.denverpost.com/news/ci_16752786?source=rss]here, includes photo of insidious mechanical foe.
tonight when the Denver Police Department Bomb Squad detonated the
"suspicious object," bringing to an end the hours-long standoff between
police and the approximately eight-inch tall figurine.

Gah sounds like the ATHF Movie Lite Brite situation in Boston all over again.

And somewhere, some J. Random Prankster is laughing his/her kiester off because of this absurd over reaction.

Still, I can't help wondering how long it'll be before all toys are forced by law to be things that won't panic police and DHS, as a result of one too many incidents like this. We've already lost interesting chemistry sets and toy guns that aren't entirely fluorescent orange; how long before the entire country is Sombertown?

And somewhere, some J. Random Prankster is panicking and hopping the CIA won't track him down and throw him in gitmo and subject him to 'enhanced interogation' (ie: what the US used to execute Japanese officers for, because it was considered torture.) because of this absurd over reaction.
FTFY

Quote:'enhanced interogation' (ie: what the US used to execute Japanese officers for, because it was considered torture.)Silly Catty, it's only torture in the third person, as in "they tortured". It's always right and proper in the first person, as in "we interrogated".

Ah, but of course, silly me, how could I forget that?
