Explosions and Unrelated Arrests

First, they snuck the “simulated explosion” in around 3 PM so I didn’t even see it (I checked in the morning a lot, because they said it would be before noon)! Boo again! But here are pics.

But just as I was sulking because I missed the explosion, the Saudi Embassy (across from the Watergate) was suddenly surrounded by the Secret Service and a bunch of police cars.  Sounds like some guy refused to leave the embassy (why???) so they went in and took him out.  Removed him, I mean, not like “let’s take that fucker OUT!”.

Here’s the pic from my cell phone.

Well, this is disappointing

I liked the wrong version better.

Explsion Email v2

Click on the image above so you can actually read the email — basically nothing explodes.  Just a flash and a puff of smoke.  BOOOOOOOOOOO.  I HAD been going to watch their pilot as a reward for the lunchtime entertainment, but if this is all they’re giving me, I’ll stick to Bones and NCIS.  And Veronica Mars, of course.

(To my sister, who will read the above and say I watch too much TV for a child raised by hippies: I play online scrabble all the while, to keep my IQ from dropping too much.)

“Simulated” explosion by my workplace…

I can’t WAIT.
