So, I’m driving into work this morning and find my normal route blocked by a bunch of Security Police (read: M-16 toting teenagers), and cars backed up a pretty good distance. “Hmmm”, I think, “Must be having some kind of exercise… I’ll go a different way.”
So I try the other road that leads to my building, and sure enough… same thing. After 25 minutes of waiting in a line of cars watching a 110 lb. girl with a gun adjust her weapon so that she can fix her hair, I’m finally permitted to go to work.
According to an SP friend of mine, they had a bomb scare when one of them found an oddly shaped box inside the building I work in next to one of the doors. Now, I can understand with Osama bin Laden making his threats against the US that we would need to be a little more careful, but here’s the truly funny part…
The box was full of peanuts. It was un-opened and according to my source plainly said “Planters” on the side.
Does anyone find this as funny as I do?
