Huh.
6 years ago on Marathon Monday a gunman killed 32 people at VA Tech. I spent the day frantically calling friends. Now doing it again. Scary.
Is it the anniversary of the VA Tech shooting?
Some people juggle geese!

Thrive to spite them
Steph I am thinking domestic terrorism as well. But I'm sure some people are thinking it's an outside attack by Al Qaeda or something like that. So the security expert was trying to stress that 1) Homeland security hadn't picked up any international chatter about an attack and 2) we don't know that anywhere else is targeted.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Has any other source confirmed the NY Post's report of 12 dead?
The only official number form the Boston PD I've seen is 2 dead.
But I'm sure it's going to go up.

My God, you guys. This is awful. I'm so sorry, and you're in my thoughts.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I was thinking domestic wingnut. Can't say why, really.
My first thought too. Patriot's day + race dedicated to Newtown + tax day + gun control debate currently going on... but I'm also trying really hard not to spin up the speculation machine until there's real information.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Is it the anniversary of the VA Tech shooting?
April 16, 2007, so more or less. The holiday is always the Monday.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I was thinking that because of Sandy Hook people being there.
Something Something Gun Control? I wonder.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Domestic wingnut here, too. Boston marathon seems so local, you know? Al Qaeda thinks subways, not Patriot's Day. It's barely an event that gets national coverage.
