I love NPR for many things. Breaking news is not one of them.

I think they are doing a pretty good job on NPR!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm listening to local news, which is getting super-local with where the cops are.

Yeah, hell of a wakeup here. The MBTA is totally shut down. No order to stay inside here in Somerville.

My roommate probably knows the MIT officer -- it's a small force so she's interacted whenever there's a library problem that they have to come out for.

Also, my mother just pointed out that we went by MIT at about 10:30 last night. So that explains the emergency vehicles we kept pulling over for.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Please, please, stay safe, people.

USA Today is reporting that the at-large suspect is 19, graduated from a Cambridge high school in 2011, and the younger brother of the suspect who died. Nineteen. A high school wrestler. Just a stupid, childish, stupid kid, who murdered another kid and two other people and blew limbs off another hundred or so. Fucking hell.

A Russian news agency posted a copy of the suspect's page from VKontakte, a Russian Facebook clone: [link]

Yikes, Jesse!

Ok, so whenever I've tuned in (between shower and hairdryer) Dina Temple-Raston(?) IS REALLY freaking shoving the al-quaeda thing. It is rather unseemly and speculative and UHG.

It's the only public high school in Cambridge.
