The only thing on the news is the car bomb in NYC. CNN & Fox were live for the best part of the night.
Coffee Break #37 - Best time of year!
Boston & parts east of Weston. MA have to boil their water for a few days because of main break. Luckily it will be fixed then & they're not looking at months.
Yes, another one in NYC. With the saturation of video in that area, I'm sure he'll be in custody very soon. I would strap him to the car and re-start the timer.
Sounds like a plan to me......
I suspect he was a suicide bomber, but the 'bomb' fizzed out.
One report says it was meant as a diversion for a bigger bomb. Not sure I believe that. In any event, lots of stuff going on recently, after years of nothing on our soil.
Why would there be a timer if it was a suicide bomber?!! Countdown to martyrdom?
... redundancy. (lol)
Someone ran, better urge towards self preservation than many.
Just got back from Highland Park, the lilacs were in peak bloom. It was gorgeous, smelled heavenly. The lilac festival isn't until May 14-23, the lilacs will be finished before then. Happy to go without crowds everywhere.
Glad you got to see them Debi....where's JoAnn? Haven't heard from her today.
All seems early this year.
"Lilac Sunday" is held every year at the venerable Arnold Arboretum, and their lilacs seem ahead of schedule too, from what I have heard.
definitely early as was our 80 degree weather today too
Never had clems this early. About to have iris blooming. The white azalea are about 10 days early.
My Redbud had a whole bunch of buds about to open when we got hit with 30° temps this last Monday, just about all of them fell off! - but at least the leaves are still coming out, (thank goodness).
- And my tulips! - at least 2 doz specialty tulips were hit with 90° temps two weeks ago and that wiped out their show for this year! they wilted before they opened regardless of the water I ran out to give them!
This rollercoaster is wreaking havoc with my stuff, especially my 'spring' stuff!
Wow - crazy!
I know, some of my tulips aren't so great this year either.
Yes, this has a long way to play out.
Wasp, I hate those things! Very cool pics though.
Wall-e was running the other day and looked like he tripped. I was like "what the heck was that" He must have thought the same thing cause he looked behind him and then went to check out something in the grass. It was the biggest wasp I ever saw at least 3" long HUGE. I ran inside to get the camera but by the time I got back it was gone. If I ever saw something that big flying around I'd be running for cover.
Yes, cool shots of a nasty insect.
Yes. Either wasp or hornet.

Was hoping for Boobquake Two today since the moron from Iran is speaking to the UN. In case you did not catch it, aside from them speaking about the dangers of nukes, the UN has put them on a commission for women's rights!
Wonderful! Sherrie, looks like a white-faced hornet----bad stinger!
They put them on a commission for women's rights???!!! Are you kidding me????
Nope.
That is just unreal!
The Interior Dept had to postpone a safety awards luncheon today that had BP with two nominations. Doh!!
