Rodent Regatta

You just gotta love the ”news” these days. CNN.com’s front page says ”Authorities … detonated a package early today after stopping three men who they believe may have been plotting a terror attack.” (emphesis mine) Following the developing story link, we learn that, ”Bomb squad investigators saw wires sticking out of a package in one of the cars, and used a water cannon to blow it apart, an official said. The package turned out to be medical equipment.” No explosives have been found in the vehicles, so far. Webster’s says that detonate means ”To cause to explode; to cause to burn or inflame with a sudden report.” [Steven’s Weblog]
