// Of course it was a terrorist attack.
This is far to good for conspiracy types to pass up.
Just wait...

i too point5 get nervous every so often on this other bridge here. it is the 35e bridge. it is higher and going over it this morning was a bit eerie.
traffic was surprisingly fluid this morning. the appropriate powers seem to be doing a good job. i'd like to get some pictures, but i don't want to get in the way of the recovery efforts.
i did see a rather humorous video. there was a family of ducks floating by the wreckage seemingly indifferent o the whole ideal. maybe a WTF-quack here and there. slightly bemusing.

fucking crazy. I would guess a ton of people from minneapolis visit this site, most of them commuting that bridge every day? Everyone I've talked to is fine so far - lots of people drove that stretch just minutes before it collapsed. good tto hear your all healthy.

That's a good one.
I'm blaming the heat for everything.

I work not too far from the bridge, and I can say that things are still chaotic around here. I still hear sirens all around, even at 11am the next day.
I also knew a girl who was on the bridge, she unfortunately suffered two shattered legs after dropping in her car with the bridge and ending up in the Mississippi. She was extremely lucky to live. It's a lot worse than what it looks like on TV.

some of the images online and tv are truly scary
but yeah I can imagine being there and seeing the enormity of it all

I just can not imagine it. I used to live in Minneapolis and I traveled that bridge everyday.
