I found this quite amusing -
A batch of BLUR's rare single DON'T BOMB WHEN YOU ARE THE BOMB has been blown up - by police who thought the box containing the singles were actually a real bomb.
The track, which was released as a white label last month, has been in the pipeline since as early as March. Singer Damon Albarn revealed why the delay occurred.
"We were late putting the record out," he told BBC Radio 1. "We'd have probably put it out six weeks earlier but we ran into problems with the first pressing and I only found out very recently that they were actually mislaid on Brighton train station in a cardboard box and it had bomb written on it. The police performed a controlled explosion, which is why it never materialised until later. It's top secret information. It's Norman (Cook)'s home town so maybe he did it?"

I think the poice's suspicions were first raised when they saw the big word bomb written on the box. Fucking stupid pigs. At least a good result all round though

"The police performed a controlled explosion"
would that not involve theirr being some explosive in the box forr them to make it go off?

i can imagine terrorists putting their bomb in a cardboard box with "bomb" clearly written on it... would sound absurd, even in a cartoon...
