A Really Bad Suicide Bomber

October 4th, 2005 at 9:08 am by Preston Taylor Holmes

There was once a Kids in the Hall sketch with Dave Foley where he gave a monologue as a “bad doctor”. His scrubs were covered in blood and he matter-of-factly, almost humorously, went through a litany of all his botched operations and other surgical failures. Of course it was hilarious.

If the dumbass who blew himself up in Oklahoma last weekend still had his limbs and head attached, he could give the exact same monologue, except as a “bad suicide bomber.” Well, I guess his ghost could still give the monologue.

Anyway, as I recklessly speculated yesterday, turns out this punk may have been rubbing one off to “jihadi materials.” Thanks to Watcher of Weasels and Jihad Watch, we now have the news of Joel’s islamic romper room.

An Oklahoma University student who killed himself by detonating a bomb strapped to his body outside a packed stadium over the weekend was a “suicide bomber” in possession of “Islamic jihad” materials, according to a new report.

Joel Henry Hinrichs III, 21, an engineering major at the school blew himself up outside OU’s football stadium during Saturday night’s game against Kansas State. Doug Hagmann, a seasoned investigator, told WND he was informed by multiple reliable law-enforcement sources familiar with the investigation into the incident that authorities recovered a “significant amount” of “jihad” materials, as well as Hinrichs’ computer.

Hagmann also said those same sources indicated police and federal agents “had pulled additional explosives from [Hinrichs'] house,” including triacetone triperoxide, or TATP, “homemade explosive [that is] very potent but relatively easily manufactured.”

TATP was also used in the July mass transit bombings in London, CNN reported, and was used by attempted bomber Richard Reid, who packed his shoes with the compound in an unsuccessful attempt to destroy a U.S.-bound American Airlines flight in December 2001.

I suppose Joel was a serviceable suicide bomber, in that he did manage to blow himself up. What, however, does this say about the University of Oklahoma’s engineering program? Not much. If I’m an engineering student and I can’t do a little better than that, I might consider switching majors.

In the end, though, it’s really a happy story. The kid has gone off to a better place – somewhere where he can’t blow the rest of us up in the name of islamic jihad. Instead of 72 beautiful virgins, though, I have a feeling he’s going to spend his afterlife rolling around in a painful, globular eternal orgy with Roseanne, Shirley Hemphill, Rosie O’Donnell, Cameryn Mannheim and Barbara Streisand.

    So, TJ actually invited me to post. ME?! Clearly, he isn’t thinking straight and needs some sleep.

    Alrighty, then. While I figure out how he does all that separation of the posts with special tags and all that fancy HTML stuff, I’ll give it my bes…

    OU actually has a top-notch engineering program. I’m quite certain this freakzoid won’t make the distinguished alumni list.

  4. Preston Taylor Holmes Says:

    You mean they don’t bestow alumni awards to greasy spots on the pavement?! That’s discrimination!

    Knowing some the leftist collegiate elements, I’m sure they’ll be a petition.
