Today Bebe walked in the door and her conversation seemed to be all bomb related.  Please don’t be concerned, the present she just left me is not truly an incendiary.  It is popsicles.

With all the news about airport security she wasn’t too fazed when there was a delay on the MBTA.  She didn’t hear any announcements but noticed a strong police presence, with dogs to boot.  She and the commuters next to her assumed it was a threat of some kind but could not find a hint of it on the local news or on the news websites.

My curiosity peaked and I turned to Twitter.  Voila!

Another day, another way to find your local news.  Or to prove that you’re not just making up a story for why you’re late!
