Suspicious Packages

This whole business is really getting out of hand.

At my age the very idea of even calling it a package is flattering.

I'm really glad there weren't any photos in this thread. I was a bit scared of opening it.

I suspect that the most suspicious packages would be on High school sports coaches and matadors.

Unfortunately, it only takes one to be real:

Prosecutors say Obama's election was 'catalyst' for Turnidge father-son to plant a bomb at Woodburn bank | OregonLive.com

I remember they closed down the freeway once (hours) for a piece of plastic pipe that had fallen off a landscaping truck.

No telling . . . ambient . . . temperature was about . . . 72 degrees. I guess it depends on the effectiveness of the Thermos(r) Brand container, the initial temperature of the water and how long it was outside: Under! the bus?
