Look what I missed:
I had lunch today with a friend. We sat down near this subway stop, and noticed a bunch of police on motorcycles. People with news cameras. etc. I couldn't stay long enough to see what was going on

Look what I missed:



Homeland chief visits Boston T stop
"Secretary of Homeland Security Michael Chertoff marked the year anniversary of the London terrorist bombings by riding the MBTA today, touting federal aid to combat terror in Boston but refusing to reveal any details about the alleged terrorist plot that was foiled in New York City."
:puke:

2. I'm so impressed at DHS...
He rode the Green line from North Station to Government Center --- oooh, putting his life at risk for about a minute and a half -- what a brave man. Too bad the train didn't have a tunnel hold just outside of Gov't Center to make it really authentic.

3. Um.... if he wanted to show how safe NY's system was ....
why was he riding the Blue Line in Boston? Wouldn't it have looked better to do that in NY instead?

Asshats, all.
