Haha, even tho bomb threats are no joke now, I know, I know. You remind me
of a real bomber we had at our middle school. Kenny K. (no last names even now) blew the cupola off of Swanson Jr High in Arlington. I have no idea what he could have used for explosives. He did it during summer so no one was there, so not all bad, I guess. I was more or less friends with the guy, and I didn't read the news or anything back then, so I'm not 100% sure it happened like I heard it. Maybe he just went up there with some M-80s and TRIED to blow it off. I do know that he was never seen again, so that added to the veracity in my mind.
