Sammy Davis and 9/11

The Rat Pack’s secret lair was demolished Sunday.

Quote:
A combination of dynamite and the more powerful linear-shaped charges were strategically placed in the three structures being knocked down -- two towers, one 17 and the other 12-stories and both made of concrete, and an addition built of steel that will require the stronger hit, Loizeaux said. At 7 a.m., Sunday, the first explosion was set off, a thunderous sound heard miles away on the mainland.
And then a piece of South Florida history was gone in a cloud of dust.
They should have used thermite, it’s a lot quieter.

video available here

Note that the buildings did NOT collapse symmetrically

From what I heard, it wasn't dynamite that brought the towers down. It was some silly ol' ram with high hopes.

Only in spirit, along with Frank and Dean and Joey, though I heard that Elvis was seen there.

They should have used Hush-a-Boom™ - it's not only quiet, it's also invisible and leaves no embarrassing traces of therm*te behind.

Yeah, but then you have to come up with recordings of those explosions masking the other explosions (all of which would be caught on every recording device for miles), or, alternatively, you have to fake recordings of explosions masking the other explosions and make sure that the former are caught on every recording device for miles. Apparently, that is wayyyy too difficult for the all-seeing, all-knowing, all-powerful NWO with unlimited resources.

I guess some temp just messed up that day. That'll teach the NWO to hire only from union shops.

Is it too late to trademark "Thermute" for the quiet kind?

If you use Hushaboom™ to blow up Invisicrete™, how can you tell if anything happened?

What can blow a tower
Blow it so sky high
Drop it in its footprint
Never bother asking why
Oh the Hushaboom can
Oh the Hushaboom can
The Hushaboom can
'Cause we mix it up with thermite
Make your tower go boom....

Yes, I'm loopy, it's 4:30 am here.

There was no symmetrical collapse. The buildings did not fall at freefall speed. No debris was blasted horizontally over hundreds of metres. There were no pools of molten steel flowing under the wrackage for weeks. This was clearly no controlled demolition - it was a secret structural failure with explosion sounds dubbed on afterwards by the mainstream media. The evil sods.

Detection of such events are accomplished by using Detect-all™.
Detect-all™ was invented in a super secret truther lab and is specifically tuned into the special brainwaves of truthers thus only truthers can see the results of Detect-all™ tests.

"high-hope" rams are raised to demolish dams, attracted as they are to the water on the other side. They would have been duds on the Strip. But put that sucker at the Hoover Dam, and wham-o!!

Those would also be called C-Bore since you most certainly want something else to do while waiting for them to go off
