It's getting even wierder: he wanted to make a pattern of bombings
across the country that looked like a smiley face on the map. He's a
college student and guitarist in a punk band named Apathy. His
anti-government attitude seems to have been sparked by his arrest last
year for posession of a pot pipe.

What a sick sort of irony: trying to get the country happy by smoking
them all with pipes....
