« Graphs Don't Lie | Main | Fresh Update to Agawam Story: Castor Beans Found »
June 23, 2004

UPDATE: No Hazmat in Agawam, Mass.

Thanks a lot to Scherado for following this and alerting me to the resolution. Third item:

(Agawam) -- Federal officials say materials thought to be suspicious in an Agawam home pose no threat. But the officials and Agawam police still arrested Michael Crooker at his home for federal firearms charge. When they were searching his house, authorities say they found some suspicious materials that were later determined not to be a threat. They would be elaborate. A-T-F spokesman Jim McNally says Crooker is a convicted felon.

Sorry to worry everyone. But that was what my source told me.


[Originally: Explosives-Making Materials, Possible Chemical Weapons Discovered at Massachusetts Apartment]

Michelle Malkin blogs the discovery of explosives and possibly chemicals in an Agawam, Mass., apartment by DHS officers.

A source in federal law-enforcement tells me that federal agents specializing in Hazmat disposal have been summoned to the site. The fear is -- only a fear -- that it's possibly Sarin.

Treat that last bit as chatter among law-enforcement types, but among the LEO's concerned.

Big deal. After the discovery of Sarin in Iraq, a liberal guest on Hannity and Colmes assured Sean that Sarin is not, in fact, a weapon of mass destruction. And she wouldn't lie, because she's a liberal.

Take that, Sean Hannity!

Could it be that the senator from Massachusets hasn't been doing his part for homeland security? Mercy me, how could I take such a cheap, opportunistic pot shot?

I found this at http://www.wwlp.com/news/briefs2.html:

Thanks so much for that update, Scherado.

I am posting this just to push Scherado's post down off the last ten posts.

Posted by: Smitty on June 24, 2004 01:18 AM

The trouble is that when you post a link within the first hundred characters, the whole link gets posted in the sidebar, which bloats out its width and screws up the whole look of the page.

Posted by: Smitty on June 24, 2004 01:19 AM

I can edit a comment and break up a long link into two parts if its one of the last five comments.

But Sherado's comment was number seven. So I couldn't edit.

Okay: Pushed Scherado's post down.

Sorry for all the filler posts. But I hate the bloated-sidebar bug.

The Boston Herald is reporting ricin at the house. Put a link at S.O.N. -- or you could go right to the Herald, but why would you do want to do that?

Lost Seventies Mystery Click: The Darkest Song Ever Recorded?
I think Professor of Rock (on YouTube) claimed this song was so upsetting that people used to pull over to the side of the road when it came on the radio. It's about a fatal plane crash, but obviously it suggests a fatal car crash too, which could wig out a driver.
It's like one of those nasty 70s anti-war body horror movies. Not for the squeamish. I'm not even going to post the lyrics because they're upsetting too.

I'm frankly surprised the title is 107 Days. I would have thought it would be:

Days Are Important: The Amount of Days Was a Number and That Number Was 100 Plus 7 Which is 107. 107. One Hundred and Seven. It's a Memoir and Memoirs are About Remembering Things Because Remembering Things is Good. Not Bad. Good. Memoir. A Memoir. Like a Reservoir But With Memory. We Have to Let it Flow. We Have to Let It Flow Into the Reservoir of Our Mind and Our Heart. Our Heart Which is the Beating Heart of Not Just Our Blood, But Our Progress. And Our People. And Democracy. The End.

Soft weak poop from the early 80s Mystery Click
I never liked this song, but it is memorable. In a weak, annoying way.
The kid's in shock up and down the block

Nobody gets it like they want it to be (nobody, nobody)
Nobody hands you any guarantee (nobody, nobody)
Nobody
