Virra Mall Bomb

Bomb defused in Virra Mall. Whoa. I practically grew up in Virra Mall; it’s just down the road from home in Greenhills, and I used to skate down there every week for school supplies, comics, clothes, Tae Kwon Do lessons, and busloads of (ahem) “demo” software CD’s. A bombing in that crowded, decades-old fire hazard would have been utterly disastrous.

    Demo. Heheheh, that’s good.

    It would have been disastrous all right if a bombing had been successful. Besides the crowded conditions and barely-there fire escape routes, it could have been pretty deadly.

    And do you realize how far people would have to drive then for their Levi’s knockoffs and irregular PX goods?
