Talk about an idiot kid if he was really was calling in these threats.  Either way on if he did it or not was an intresting read.

All of this just because he threatened to blow up some schools.

he should really edit this... there are times where it is silent for several minutes.

It actually gets pretty funny after a while.

Kind of reminds me of Phone Bomb.  Remember them?  They took donations to have numbers harassed.  That site sure didn't last long.

What a stupid mother, acting like bomb threats are just innocent teenage fun.

I dont know how I didnt see the mp3 when reading the article.  His mom is defintally going to have a hard time saying it was not him with the whole thing recorded.  I was suprised how excited he was to get ahold of the police during the call.... i would think that might give you a ohh shit moment and not a celebration like he thought it was.

The part where he called the police and said that he had been kidnapped was the only funny part...  :'(
here is the time frame so you don't waste 40 minutes. If you don't want to waste 40 minutes...
12:00 - 17:20

I remember I listened to this guy once when he spammed his vent on /b/. Prank calls are supposed to be fun, this guy gives prank callers a bad name.
