Explosions at Boston Marathon

[Grey Fox]

That group seems to have a sign for everything.

I like that Strix thinks DG and Raz are Berkut's minions.  With friends like these...

[Baron von Schtinkenbutt]

Apparently these guys have been here a while and are actually citizens.

Jealous much?

Major news items from the press conference: 1. There will be a controlled explosion at a building on Norfolk Street in Cambridge that police obviously worry could be booby-trapped. 2. Police are searching an area of Watertown door-by-door.

Hee, when I was dating Princesca she lived about two blocks from Norfolk St on Broadway.  There was a whore house right across the street from her place.  Good times.

Woah, there was a shootout?   Why wasn't I informed?

Liberal Party leader Justin Trudeau on the Boston bombing:

PETER MANSBRIDGE:
Let me try to ask this as fairly as I can, because it's only a couple of hours after something has happened that clearly was not an accident, in Boston. People have died, many people are injured. You're the Canadian prime minister, what do you do?

JUSTIN TRUDEAU (LEADER OF THE LIBERAL PARTY OF CANADA):
First thing, you offer support and sympathy and condolences and, you know, can we send down, you know, EMTs or, I mean, as we contributed after 9/11? I mean, is there any material immediate support we have we can offer?

And then at the same time, you know, over the coming days, we have to look at the root causes. Now we don't know now whether it was, you know, terrorism or a single crazy or, you know, a domestic issue or a foreign issue, I mean, all of those questions. But there is no question that this happened because there is someone who feels completely excluded, completely at war with innocents, at war with a society.

And our approach has to be, okay, where do those tensions come from? I mean, yes, we need to make sure that we're promoting security and we're, you know, keeping our borders safe and, you know, monitoring the kinds of, you know, violent subgroups that happen around. But we also have to monitor and encourage people to not point fingers at each other and lay blame for personal ills or societal ills on a specific group, whether it be the West or the government or Bostonians or whatever it is, because it's that idea of dividing humans against ourselves, of pointing out that they're not like us and, you know, in order to achieve our political goals we can kill innocents here.

That's something that no society in the world that is healthy, regardless of ideology, will accept.

Sounds like entire Boston is shut down due to the manhunt.  Surreal.

[Ed Anger]

I've got a Police Boner. Pizza ordered.

  You old people and your early lunchtime.

You'll be old too. Time is creeping up on you.

[Caliga]

So Ed, will you be ordering a Super Bird from Denny's for your 4pm dinner?

[Ed Anger]

So Ed, will you be ordering a Super Bird from Denny's for your 4pm dinner?

Dear god, no.

But yes, I eat between 4 and 5. 

[Grey Fox]

Before the kids or do they eat at that time too?

You'll regret this when they are 10.

[katmai]

Between 4 & 5?
Jesus Gramps.

Gives him time for a nap prior to Murder She Wrote comes on.

Actually, I went to a Denny's a few months ago and it was surprisingly good... they seemed to have overhauled their food quality or something.
