Gonna kill the rats.  or something. 
 
Don't feel like talking about the fire down below and the bastard who 
stole my rings.  All that's left is my college ring.  Need to update on 
the building situation. 
 
There was a building in Times Square, before I left to go to Mexico (you 
didn't notice I was gone?  Shame on you...)  where a scaffolding or 
freight elevator or something fell on top of a residential hotel and 
killed someone.  There was a story on the rescue of a whole bunch of 
non-dog pets.  Was it that noone owned dogs?  Or that the dog-lovers knew 
enough to get their dogs out with them in the initial evacuation. 
 
Bricks fell on Lex midtown, I believe.  One hurt, but not badly.  Some 
kind of brake handle fell at One Times Square yesterday.  And now 
the-sky-is-falling report is up to date. 
 
Not much other comment than it's good to be back to raw veggies and NPR. 
CNN can drive a person insane.  It analyzes shallow things more than a 
clique of middle school girls can.  I swear.  Some people are so used to 
the idea that most everything is grey, they forget there is such colors as 
black and white and red and blue and green.  I want my nerf bat.  The 
Avenging Meep shall have her day.
