| Fireworks Give Chance to Blow Up Bin Laden |
| 2004-07-03 |
| EFL. Some Americans this Fourth of July plan to get a bang out of blowing Osama bin Laden’s head off. The bin Laden Noggin, a cone-shaped pyrotechnic device with a cartoon of bin Laden’s face, has been a hot seller at some fireworks stores around the country. When lit, the bin Laden cone erupts in blood-red flames and screeches for 60 seconds. Two shots blow his head off. It is part of an Exploding Terrorists Heads four-pack that also includes Saddam Hussein, Yasser Arafat and Moammar Gadhafi. I gotta get me one’a dese! Suzi Hoffman, whose husband returned home in May after spending eight months working as an electrician in Baghdad, got a kick out of the terrorists’ heads while shopping for fireworks in suburban Omaha. "I thought they should have shot Saddam in the head when they found him," she said. "So, this is a great way to get your aggression out." It is. Happy Fourth of July, all. |

| #4 By the time the WoT is done we may be handing out the Titus Oates treatment to Bad Guys routinely. Our great-grandchildren will no doubt think we were barbaric. |

| #3 In Britain we've been doing the same thing with effigies of a cetain terrorist who tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament, and the King, back in... 1605! Every November 5th, AKA Bonfire Night, guys (the effigies) are burned and fireworks let off to celebrate Guy Fawkes and his gang having failed. It's a fine tradition, and you guys might be seeing the start of your own... Remember, Remember The Fifth of November: Gunpowder, Treason and Plot. I see no reason Why Gunpowder Treason Should ever be forgot! |

| #1 Picture here. "Every American needs one of these!" reads the description of the firecracker in the Bob’s Fireworks catalog. "Light up ol’ BL and he will cackle not unlike a chicken, erupt in blood red flowers and scream loudly as if his cave’s roof was meeting the floor. Hmmm. Blurb's a bit Palestinian for my taste. |
