Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Huh. The lights went out about an hour ago as I was off to a meeting, and now we hear they will be off all afternoon. It is pretty pitch-black in my office, though the main library floor has emergency lighting. Interestingly, all computer power, etc. is fine.
But aside from looking at the glowing screen, there's not much else I can do.

It could be equipment failure, or it could be that the Zombies cut the power to the lights. Maybe you should barricade the door just in case.

Ahahahahaha. I have discovered that while I was off at concerts, there was an explosion of gang violence in my neighborhood which greatly contributed to the incredibly high number of people shot in Chicago over the weekend. Oh, yay.
I have also discovered that Johnny Depp will probably be down the street from me near the Aragon while filming his new movie.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Anyone here shocked that Chicago gangs are afraid of Shrift?
