Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I just remembered Will's sister and BIL are in Boston, I called him and he's been busy and hasn't heard about what is going on. He's going to call and check on them.
I don't know how this is going to sound, but I really hope none of the people from Newtown were hurt or killed. Not that I wish anyone else being hurt but just the families from there dont' need more tragedy.
Timelies all!
I almost feel bad about talking about this, considering the events in Boston..... my day kinda sucked. Started with me misjudging a rotary and hitting the curb. This led to me having a flat tire once I got to work. Once at work, the lid to the ice machine fell and hit me on the head. I have a cut just under my left eyebrow(it's been cleaned and glued shut) and a big scrape next to my left eye. Add to that a meeting with my boss where she tells me she's talked to the hr person about finding me a lab where my skill set would fit better. It's not immediate- there's no way of knowing if that position is out there, or how long things will take- but it's still bothersome.
Jesus...
Police getting multiple reports of unexploded devices around Boston.
* One report was of unexploded device on the glass footbridge over Huntington Ave near Copley place
*Another suspicious package was reported near the Harvard #MBTA station
Holy shit. Got off the plane and into my rental and the radio was all Over this. It's just horrible to me. My roommate was all excited to watch this morning ( she's a total running groupe) but wtf. Who blows up a marathon??? Uncalled her and he said Peter Sagal (?) from NPR tweeted that he came through with his pace group at like, 4:04 and they were only just past where it happened. Madness. I really hope it's by terrorism--that somebody hated their ex or something else awful but less repeatable. Jesus.
Not that LeN is the official measurement, but if she doesn't know there's a Patriot Day (my ignorance doesn't count) how good a day is it for non-Americans to make a point?
vw posted on FB that an unexploded device was found under the grandstand at the finish. I've got no words here.
Huh. I actually wasn't thinking that it might be, until I read your post. I was thinking domestic wingnut. Can't say why, really.
My thought too. Tax day.
Another suspicious package was reported near the Harvard #MBTA station
Not to be whatever, but I'm sure there's always a suspicious package near the Harvard T stop -- a ton of people hang out there and sell stuff and etc. There's always a leftover box.
Getting confirmation on the two new bombs they found, so that's five all together.
