The Pantybomber: The Photos
His panties rather look like the granny panties worn by a 12-year-old girl -- except for the fact that they're a sort of dirty beige instead of pink and flowery. From ABC.com, from a piece by Richard Esposito and Brian Ross. Here.
I was going to have, as Gregg called it, my "art department," make me a Hello Kitty version of the Pantybomber's explosive undies, but Gregg's in Detroit on his laptop and working hard, so use your imagination.
If I was going to blow something up, even if I intended to kill myself in the process, the last place I would store the explosives is near my crotch area.

There's a certain sadness knowing that in this first age of instantaneous public digital communication, those underpants will undoubtedly be the most globally reviewed image of the day.
Anybody sees a new nipple-slip photo of an airhead actress on Tuesday, be sure and post a link.
K'? Thankee.

Don't you see the injured, singed angel?

This just in: the pantybomber still had a US visa.
Crid, check the blog in my handle for a pretty picture (NOT of me!) on the Backlash My Ass Again: Pantybomber Edition post.

Amy,
Don't worry. I am having UPS special deliver to you one of my worn out pair of boxing shorts. I don't wear panties.
No racing stripes :)
I didn't "explode" in them, either.
Knock yourself out!

From the mail receiving department of Advice Goddess Industries, we request: No underwear, no anthrax, and if you're a prisoner, there are better people to write for a pen pal than a chick who gets mail for a living. Yeah, we know, you're not guilty.
PS I have gotten underwear -- purple panties from a cross-dresser.

Why don't we call the pantybomber something more descriptive like "skid mark"?
Roger at December 29, 2009 5:27 AM
Amy,
That was me!
I hate purple, though. Victoria's Secret was constantly running out of chartreuse.
Finally, I got tired of all the giggling when I went into the changing rooms.
Ordering online just wasn't as exciting.
Do you need any bras?
:)

Holeee CRUMBS, those are gorgeous bras! Too bad I spent all my holiday cash already!
Also? American bra measurements are crap! They never take cup girth into account, only rib girth-- and yes, it does make a difference!

The Calypso Classic bra reminds me of the famous Keith Moon incident: Don't worry, WASPMAN will save you!

As a counter to pantybombs, I'd like to see one of these assholes put their time and innovative energy into something more useful and less destructive - something like *panty-chutes*. In case of a mid-air malfunction - passengers would be able to "chute" their way to safety.
Dunno, just a thought.

NY Post headline on the story where we belatedly if ever capture the masterminds: Panty Raid!
Sorry, I haven't slept in days and couldn't help myself.

Do you know if they come in a "thong"?

Now that's dedication - tho it's so ironic that he felt ashamed about sex... (see the news articles about his purported posts online... 2005+)
The Israelis are pointing out - it's useless to try and second guess which weapon they're going to try next - Israeli airport security just profiles all the people going thru the lines at the airport instead... PC be damned. Ben Gurion & El Al are the safest airport & airline in the world as a result, re terrorists...
I think the US has finally gotten the message...
Weapons don't hijack planes, people do!

Ken,
Have anything for us smaller sized girls that Amy thinks look like boys? (shakes fist at Amy, then grins) 34B please.
Suki at December 30, 2009 2:55 AM
I have officially started calling these IEBVDs.
Vinnie Bartilucci at December 30, 2009 6:50 AM
Aw.. Suki, don’t feel bad, you could be an A like me! Haha.. I don’t look like a boy though, I have the perfect waist to hip ratio! The bacon post the other day made me grin, when Amy mentioned soy-fed girls having huge breasts.. sure didn’t happen for me!
