“It did what they expected it to do,” Pentagon spokeswoman Cheryl Irwin said of the 21,000-pound munition "It blowed up real good."

Damn ... you know some Iraqi will, in the future, be looking up at one of these and seeing his life flash before his eyes.
That was pretty big.

The blast appeared to cover a substantial area; I'm guessing 2-3 football fields.

Wanna instill fear? Drop 15 of these at once on a battlefield and you could obliterate an entire division. Well, if you don't obliterate them, they'll certainly surrender.
could you imagine being in a fox hole and fifteen of those suckers go off around you. Imagine living to tell about it.

Upon detecting the seismic signature of the huge detonation, French Prime Worm Chirac called President Bush and surrendered.

Sorry for the grammer and spelling errors. Been studying ASP.NET nonstop for a few days. Burnt out.

I wonder if they intend to strap a kit on it, and make it a laser guided bomb? That could sure ruin someone's whole day.

Dear Iraq:
Before dropping this bad boy, we will at least drop 3 C-130 loads of Depends. You will need them.
Sincerely,
A "Caring" Vet.

Nah, it's GPS guided, so it's better.
It would be nice to have a short range surface to surface missile version.
Or how about strapping three of them together to form a 60k bomb?
Or, what about a super sized cluster bomb carrying 40 of these on board? Or what about a death star that sends these out instead? Or whata about...
Just kidding.
