Radio shuts down US Embassy
Edited on Sat Apr-01-06 03:46 AM by The Sushi Bandit

A "suspicious package with an antenna," found outside the US Embassy in Oslo, set off an emergency response late Thursday and sparked traffic chaos at the height of the afternoon rush.

The package turned out to be a fashionable "Tivoli"-brand radio, wrapped in cloth.

But that wasn't discovered until the Oslo police had halted traffic on Drammensveien, the main street where the embassy is located, and bomb experts were called in.

7. Buffalo Springfield
Buffalo Springfield
For What It's Worth
Stephen Stills, 1966

There's something happening here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
Telling me I got to beware

I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

There's battle lines being drawn
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
Young people speaking their minds
Getting so much resistance from behind

I think it's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

What a field-day for the heat
A thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly say, hooray for our side

It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
You step out of line, the man come and take you away


We better stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, now, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

Very intense time, intense songs.

This one is really good. Glad to see the right one retrieved.

I feel sorry for the poor putz that left their radio. Probably expensive.
