“He had a little explosive device, and boys like to see things go bang. He took it down to an outing at the lake, left it in his bag, forgot it and went to the airport.”

Dreyling told authorities he had made the device and said it was “basically a pipe bomb,” according to an affidavit. Dreyling said he built the device for entertainment value, never intending to hurt anyone, and forgot that it was in his carryon bag when he brought it to the airport, the affidavit said.

Dreyling said he learned as a teenager how to build homemade explosives from Web sites like “The Anarchist’s Cook Book.” Dreyling said he has built and detonated several explosive devices for recreational purposes, according to the affidavit.

“I know Charlie Dreyling quite well,” Humphreys said. “I’ve known him since he was in the first grade. I appreciate what the authorities are doing making our airlines safe.

“I have every confidence that they’ll find out Charlie Dreyling is a fine young man and no terrorist.

2. Wel-l-l-l-l-l, you know they've never had any problems in Oklahoma

Perfectly understandable that they're not making too much of someone caught trying to take a bomb on a plane. I mean, what's the worst that could happen, really?
