The RPG hit my husband's office, more or less. It hit the Great Seal, obviously a good target, and R's office is on the back of that.
The attackers clearly wanted to not cause any casualties.
Question: Will hiding in a cavern with stockpiled chocolate goods be any part of this plan?

Now tagless for your comfort.
I'm glad for that, Raq, but still. Not like they can guarantee that sort of thing when flying explosives are involved. Fuckers. I'm just glad R's ok and you're ok.
I don't know whether to be scared or impressed that I read it here, checked CNN who had nothing yet. It wasn't until I checked CNN a few minutes later that I saw anything on the attack. News sources are slower than buffistas.

Our wings are not tired.
How awful and scary! Glad you and yours are safe; hope no one was hurt.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Oh, Raq, how scary. I am so glad you are okay.

And for this sort of stuff, there is only person to blame. Emily Post.
And Raq, take care. Sounds like someone was just trying to be tough without actually causing real harm, but who knows.

Looks like it was minimal damage and didn't punch through to the offices. The biggest result was to give us a day off from work and inconvenience pretty much every commuter in the city.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
I'm glad the damage was minimal, Raq.
