So by “Derailed by Federal Agents”, does she mean “Criminals doing crimes will be arrested by the police”? ---

She goes off on the head of border control in a House hearing, all worried about a ball of dirt wrapped in duct tape. She claims it was a bomb planted in “no man’s zone”, and she knows it was the cartel’s doing. This is one of those situations that piss me off- AFAIK, no one has asked for her proof it was the cartels. She’s actually using this as a pretense for war with the cartels, in sovereign Mexican territory. The least she could have done was come up with a plausible explanation for what one little bomb was supposed to accomplish. ---

I’m confused. How could you be bored if you have a roll of duct tape? ---

Made me laugh… It also reminded me of something 45 years ago, or so. I lived in a somewhat large family, 4 siblings. I was #3. An older brother (2 years older) had nothing to do but had a roll of duct tape. One afternoon, my brother got a 1/2 gallon milk carton from the trash and some newspapers. Crunched up the newspapers and, using a log from a branch that had broken off a tree, smashed them into the milk carton, filling it with compressed, crunched up newspapers. He started to wrap the milk carton in duct tape when the carton began to split due to the smashing the newspapers with the broken branch. When he got to the top with newspapers, he finished wrapping so it was duct taped all over in several layers. I remember telling him, “Great, now what do you do with it?” He replied, “Go long,” which, at the time, was adolescent boy-speak for run out in the yard so I can throw this to you. We threw that thing, kicked it, just like a football (even though we had a football at our disposal). For some reason, we liked playing with that thing more. Now, that milk-carton duct tape thing could only have lasted a week or two, three at the most, one summer when I was maybe 8 or 9 years old. But, I have more fond memories of our playing with it than with actual footballs, baseball/softballs, tennis balls, or anything else. Not that we didn’t have those other balls, or didn’t play with them, or even that we didn’t have fun doing so. No, but my memories of that duct tape carton somehow epitomize fun for me in ways those others do not. Memory is a funny thing. Sorry for the high jack. Despite the amount of fun that can be found in a roll of duct tape, MTG still must go. She is a drag on all humanity. And, no, I am not suggesting that we wrap her up in said tape and throw her around. That would be cruel, uncalled for, and just disgusting on so many levels. But, I do wish she would find some other group to annoy. ---

That’s a nice story. It also sounds like it would be a good candidate for this thread: > [@Is boredom important for kids' development?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/is-boredom-important-for-kids-development/981250): > > I was listening to a podcast the other day and someone implied that without boredom and rainy days where you had nothing else to do that the Beatles may never have formed because kids wouldn’t take the time to learn how to play instruments. Also boredom is how kids learn to create their own fun, rather than just be entertained by Angry Birds etc. Or is the future (where our kids will be living) going to be a place of zero boredom? Always entertained, always stimulated by external sources and th… And I agree with everything you said about MTG. ---
