Business Unusual
As
the bomb scare finished and traffic began to flow back up 8th ave,
there was a general feeling of "it never happened." The city went back
to working as it does, traffic resumed its frantic, honking pace, and
we all slowly returned to work.
Just then, an announcement came over the loudspeaker from the building
super, in some sort of eastern european accent.
"This is building managment! All clear, business unusual..." (ruffling,
mumbling heard in the background) "... Uh, umm. Normal business is
resumed"
I've
put up some more pictures from Rey, and cropped up some
of Tate's
gigantic 5 megapixel ones, including some of the one-man bomb-squad.

Pictures uploading - bomb scare just a scare?
Well,
it seems they're letting people through.
Funniest moment: they start letting people through, and Tate, hanging
out my window taking these
pictures, goes "oh boo! Boooooohhhh!"

Live From the Bomb Scare
Well, my friend Josh is late for his interview here at Common Ground,
and we know why! You can't get in or out of our building right now due
to a bomb scare right across the street!
I was just out there getting pizza while they were closing the block.
Weird.
Right now, 8th is closed from 34th to 36th, and there's a bag by a white
van in the center of the 2 block police barricade. I'll post pictures
and more news as it occurs.
