I seem to recall hearing some drama on 9/11 about that. hasn’t there been a continuing obsession with that bridge being attacked? I seem to recall hearing some drama on 9/11 about that.

I tend to be overly laid-back about terror alerts, but I'm surprised I didn't even connect the dots.

That's horrible. And it only makes matters worse that that clown, Markowitz, is part of the tale. How surreal. Meanwhile, a square of cement in front of the new Eckerd around the corner from me has been dedicated to political graffiti. It's had the "Osama votes Kerry," "Obama votes Kerry," and a whole lot of other political stuff stenciled and markered on it, but just in that one square. Pretty nerdy, as graffiti goes.

It has this depth of integrity and passion that is hair raising. If yer borough pres is capable of that, I'm impressed. The "laughing at him" bit is kind of a give away though!
