A suspicious package was found on the DC metro today on the redline near Roosevelt and DuPont circle. It was found on a seat in the last car.

It was found to be a paper covered box filled with more cardboard and paper. Needless to say, that people are ticked that some hoaxster did this during rush hour, causing long backups, on the hottest day of the year.

But what I thought was interesting that they just wrote on the box: Dear Bombland Security.

Do you think someone was trying to say something?

Just some old hobo's twisted sense of "humor" I presume...

do you have a link to a news story about this?

I have not seen anything else on it.

Well, it *is* a crap story in my opinion.

Just sayin'.

I think it was someone who is totally fed up with

the terror threats and decided to play a joke. Probably a kid.

I suggest he spends his time doing other things like putting on a Spiderman suit and climbing buildings or something... There'd be less jailtime involved.

I am not saying it wasn't a joke.
I knew it wasn't a real bomb threat.


But part of me is curious if someone is taking advantage of the situation to send a message,knowing that either way, it was going to get broadcast.
In other words, does the message itself: To the Department of Bombland Security, refer to anything?
