Just finished watching an episode of Forensic Files about a guy who ordered a $400 CB radio from a fella online. After payment was received, the seller shipped him a less expensive model. The buyer took exception to this and sent the seller a pipe bomb which killed him and severely wounded his mother.

that video is over 5 tears old.

So is my pickup. And cell phone. And shoes. And most of my ideas. I did break down and buy a new belt at JC Penney earlier this morning. Looks outta place with my five-year-old trousers though.

i was not trying to start a argument. just stating a fact.

Not taken that way at all, jon. Was surprised the show was that old and I was just trying to be funny. It's all good.

I've expended WAY too much energy recently getting upset over other people's posts. Wearin' my rose colored glasses every time I sign in now. :cool:

Wow. What a story!

I'm not buying the line that the boy's family knew nothing about what he was doing. Mom later says she was covering for him when those he ripped off called angry.

Parents really do need to keep an eye on what their teenagers are doing. We can't protect them too much, and yet we can't protect them enough.
