    Man, I just woke up to see the horrible day on Wall Street and this even more horrible news story. Very sad. I hope the injured pull through all right.

    Agree. Someone should start a new thread in the politics area so we have a distinction between the two discussions. Thanks.

    oh no, the media is already calling it the boston blast. like it was made for tv or something. no offense, it's a terrible thing. and i'm glad they haven't started profiling yet.

    "I don't think the use of pressure cookers points to any particular group or individual who may be responsible," Bill Daly, a former FBI investigator, told FoxNews.com.
    thank goodness, because if they was gonna start interviewing my grandma then i was about to get pissed...
