Student arrested for bringing Gameboy Bomb to school
I find this story scary on a couple of counts: First of all, that it's a junior high student who did this -- shouldn't he be out playing with his friends instead of hollowing out a (probably perfectly good) Gameboy and filling it with gunpowder? Secondly, how does a junior high student get access to enough gunpowder to fill a Gameboy?
I think this story also has the potential of growing into an urban legend -- sort of like the teenager who built a nuclear bomb.
How freaky. =/
What is a kid doing with gunpowder anyway?
