NOTICE—Use of the Anthrax Box will not provide 100% protection from anthrax contamination or other biological hazards.Some disgruntled former Home Depot worker sent an envelope filled with baby powder and a note reading “ANTHRAX! ANTHRAX! ANTHRAX!” to two local stores. They closed down the stores—one of them is down the road in Frazer—for five days while they checked out the situation.
His mom says it was all in good fun, though. “All I can tell you is he’s a very, very fine young man,” she said. “He just did this as a joke. It was done as a joke and it backfired. I don’t think he realized what the repercussions would be.”
Meanwhile, I’m waiting for Amazon.com to start carrying the Anthrax Box so I can add it to my wishlist.
