This isn't a come-on. I'm in a very serious relationship with a landscape architect.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Yikes, Sumi!

Just got home here -- sorry to hear about it, sumi! Glad to hear you're safe.

That's not encouraging! (the phonemail!)

Ours is the same way. By the time the light indicating a voicemail starts blinking, the problem is often resolved (in today's case, the email server went awol for 2 hours.) It's really not efficient.

It sounds worse than what we've been hearing: [link]

The incident apparently happened around 3:15 p.m. Authorities confirm at tleast 3 people ahve been shot. According to the Kishwaukee Community Hospital website up to 15 victims are expected at the hospital.

A witness told WBBM a young man pulled out a shotgun and began firing inside a lecture hall. The shooting apparently took place during a geology class at Cole hall on the University's De Kalb campus.

Oh, the alarms are FINALLY getting quieter.

Or maybe I'm losing my hearing.
