    I was actually watching a bit of the news when this was on while I was waiting at the doctors. Its legit some scary sh*t since it's close to home. They think it was either a prankster, a diversionary tactic, or like you said, testing security. Hopefully it was just a prankster.

    Yeah, hopefully it was a couple punks that did it...Terrorists have been playing games with American airports for years, figuring out their protocalls and response times...etc...Considering the scope of what happened today...it's very suspicious.

    What cracks me up the most is this scare is estimated to have cost the City of Boston $750,000 Dollers!Seriously, how dumb must you be to spend 3/4 of a million bucks on a couple LED Lights Signs. :HAHAHA:

    ^^^ Well, there were like 40 of them, but still.I really can't understand how you can think that a light brite raised thirty feet above the ground in random locations would be a bomb. You'd think after, I dunno, finding ONE of these things and finding out it wasn't a bomb, that they'd be able to handle the rest properly and cheaply.

Especially when Turner had them turn over a list of exactly where each one was located. One car driveing around Boston could have done that in maybe one work day. And that would have cost maybe a couple thousand at most.No need to shut down the Boston streets and cost the city thousands upon thousands of dollars.

Maybe they'll show some old classics and not the gay new sh*t they showhttp://money.cnn.com/2007/02/09/news/newsm...sion=2007020915</div>That's pretty dumb.The only classics worth showing are Sealab and Space Ghost. If they could show Rocko's Modern Life, Ren and Stimpy, and Beavis and Butthead, that would be pretty awesome.
