Absolute first world problem: The pop machines in the building are empty. Like W.C. Fields, I'm reduced to food and water.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Thank goodness I bought enough bread and milk.
But do you have eggs?
Yikes, shooting stuff at Ft. Lauderdale airport.
Well crap.
Did the escaped prisoner here yesterday make national news at all?
I didn't hear about that one. But yes, stupid is as stupid does.
I'm reduced to food and water.
At least is isn't just bread and water?
It's not snowing here. I'm taking a wait and see attitude about calling work (also the thought of calling them makes me anxious).
Eek. We've been through Ft. Lauderdale airport several times on the way to and from cruise ships.
Yes, now they are up to 5 dead. It is my home airport and associated with many happy trips. Shutting it down is super complicated too because it is so busy.
Not as crazy as some others, but still makes a big mess. Website says "FLL averages 650 commercial flights per day on 30 airlines. There are also 100 private flights. Each day over 73,000 travelers pass through the four terminals at FLL."
Yikes. I'm reading 5 dead and 8 hospitalized.
Keeps getting worse. People are running out onto runway as police running into garage with guns drawn. Not good. I don't watch news anymore and am now glued to it.

In other news, here's a college course I could enjoy.
When I was in college, the head of the Math Department hosted a Wine Seminar periodically. Good times.
Good lord, I only know what you guys are posting about this shooting but it sounds terrible.
Yeah one of my traveling-myjobindustry groups on FB posted about the FLL thing, and I got an internal email about it too, in case any of our people were there. So scary. But it sounds like they got the guy pretty quickly. And it wasn't past security, it was in baggage claim? Not that I think the TSA is all that, but god forbid someone got a gun through security, then we'd all have to strip naked to get in!
Did the escaped prisoner here yesterday make national news at all? He busted out of prison in Rhode Island, came back here where he's from, robbed a bank, and got caught! Busy day.
That is a busy day! No, didn't hear anything about it. Though I wasn't super with it yesterday either.
