Well, I really tried, but it looks like the folks in Boston just won’t take advantage of my security training materials. They went and blew up a traffic counter:
There were some tense moments in Boston’s financial district Wednesday morning as police were forced to blow up a suspicious device.The bomb squad shut down busy Devonshire Street after someone spotted a green box chained to a no parking sign.
The box turned out to be some kind of traffic counting device and was completely harmless.
Yes, folks. That is question #1 on “Bomb or Not”.
I think the Boston Bomb Squad gets paid by how much shit they blow up.
