My office is just a few blocks from there, and I take the subway line that runs right under Times Square.

I think you're gonna be late to work.

Fox & Friends said that a man on a bicycle was seen throwing an object into the office door. From the sketcy details dont know if they got him or not. May have found another bomb unexploded.

Probably some dumb kid with an ash can or an M-80.

Since it's NYC I'm not so sure - a co-worker of mine moved down to DC from there and said that they don't even have sparklers. Not that they couldn't zip over to Pennsylvania (maybe NJ, too) and get some, but if you don't grow up with a tradition of fireworks, it's not the first thing you think of when you're looking for disruption opportunities. Trashcan fire, maybe.

But, Ruby Julie-Annie made the city so safe... How could this be?

WOW that is LAME. his successor Bloomie, has been in office since January 1 2002, right after 9/11.

Giuliani is not presidential material at all but given what he had to work with...he was a friggin genius in stopping crime in NYC. You really have no idea do you?

...”It will get them all labeled as terrorists.”...

IF it happens to be someone identified as a Code Pinko...would they/should they then be labeled as a terrorist organization?

no doubt this was an act of terrorism.

That part of Time Square has all kinds of cameras/ They are bound to have good images of the one who threw the bomb.

"Police are presently seeking information as to the last known whereabouts of this... errrr... ummmmmmmmm... well... woman, I guess. Kinda. Sorta."

"Either that, or else maybe it's just E.T."

Dina it sounds that the anti military groups just upped the ante bigtime.

One of the DC military recruiting stations had been harassed and I believe trashed.
