Remember the teenager who crashed a plane into a Florida building? His suicide note is now online. This looks pretty damning. I still think he could’ve made it all up, but I’m gonna go ahead and rescind most of the benefit of the doubt I gave him back in January.
Important Note
This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.

“Osama bin Laden is planning on blowing up the Super Bowl with an antiquated nuclear bomb left over from the 1967 Israeli-Syrian war.”
Is basically the plot from a Tom Clancy novel! The Sum of all fears to be precise.
I reckon the kid was making it all up! I mean he crashed it into the building on a Saturday! Duh! I know American are known for working silly hours but you have a better chance during the working hours of a weekday.
Yeah, somebody on Metafilter pointed that out. The consensus seems to be that he did make it all up to get attention. My point was just that I figured he *hadn’t* said anything explicit about supporting Osama, but that reporters had jumped to conclusions. Whyever he said it, he definitely said it.
