I don't see this below, so I thought I'd post. The Triborough Bridge here in NYC has been closed because an abandoned rental truck, smelling of gas, has been found on the bridge. Who knows - may be nothing, but I thought it was worth the post.

NEW YORK -- New York City police are investigating a truck abandoned several yards from a toll booth near the Manhattan side of the Triborough Bridge.
Police say witnesses reported seeing a man flee the vehicle Wednesday night.

It’s probably a stolen truck that broke down and the perp hi- tailed it out of there.

Did the running driver look Amish?
No, he was smart and had some kind of rag covering his head to disguise his Amish beard.

There is a sort of drip, drip, drip effect isn’t there? A little here, a bigger one there that is plausibly explained by something else.
This sort of thing is why the plane hijackers reportedly made a point of allowing passengers to call out on their cellphones, they wanted to make sure the world knew, no spinning it away.
I just hope the d*** thing isn’t loaded with fertilizer and diesel or something worse. I’d actually be happy to know it’s just illegals, actually.

I was thinking of the Kenosha Kickers, actually, on their way to another polka festival. Oh, for a few more pleasant memories...

My moneys on a gas line leak, but it doesnt explain why the driver ran off. A lot of times the first details to come out of a news story are wrong.

A "lot" being defined as "300 or so." Richmond County, which is the borough of Staten Island, voted for McCain/Palin.
How did Cook County do?
