#1 Haven't seen anything here. Could have been just a piece of July 4 fireworks that didn't go off maybe.

#2 Maybe someone was 'fishing' and misplaced their 'lure'.

#3 Carbide and dynamite fishing are popular among certain groups - saves on the time involved. Of course, it is illegal as all hell.

#4 If it floats then it must be PVC or similar and meant to be purely concussive.

#5 Well obviously it was one of the bombs used to breach the levy and flood New Orleans.

#7 Carbide and dynamite fishing are popular among certain groups - saves on the time involved. Of course, it is illegal as all hell.

And when da game warden was through saying that, Boudreaux went and lit another stick of dynamite, handed it to the game warden and said "Do you wanna talk or do you wanna fish?"

#9 Al Qaeda knows about this, thus counter-terrorism officials are trying to found out who made the Lake Pontchartrain bomb.

Question that SHOULD be asked is ... who make Lake Pontchartrain!

#12 My nephew, who works in a national chain store in Mandeville, reported to his dad that a man of Middle Eastern descent recently purchased 25 prepaid, disposable, cell phones , for cash. He thought it fairly odd and reported it to the local sheriff's office; they treated him as if he was a nut. Seems fishy to me.

#13 Suggest that your nephew call the FBI and Homeland Security, too, Fantod. The local guys aren't necessarily as aware of these things as we are here.

#14 Sheriff Strain's not averse to 'profiling', and does not run a PC, touchy-feely office, so I am kind of surprised he would ignore such a report.
