4.15.13

I will only comment briefly on this subject, because I'm still in complete shock and disgust over the entire situation.  To my buddies in Boston; to Nycole and her husband (who were there running the marathon); to the rest of the marathon participants, and the friends and families of the wounded and deceased; to the City and people of Boston in general:  My prayers are with you.  My thoughts are with you.  You have set an extraordinary example to the world, Boston.  You have shown the world in these past days what being an American is all about.  Boston was not built to break.  The people of Boston are some of the toughest and hardest working around.  Clearly, whomever was responsible for this was absolutely delusional.  I think Colbert said it best.  Please watch the video below...

"...As the president said, 'We don't know who did this, but they will be found and they will be brought to justice'.  But whoever did this obviously did not know shit about the people of Boston, because nothing these terrorists do is going to shake them.  For Pete's sake, Boston was founded by the Pilgrims - a people so tough they had to buckle their God damn hats on!  It is the cradle of the American Revolution; a city that withstood an 86 year losing streak; a city that made it through 'The Big Dig' - a construction project that backed up traffic for 16 years!  There are commuters just getting home now!  Even their bands are tough.  It's the hometown of Aerosmith, who, in their 5th decade, are still going strong.  Even Steven Tyler looks fantastic, for a 73 year old woman.  But here's what these cowards really don't get:  they attacked the Boston Marathon - an event celebrating people who run 26 miles on their day off until their nipples are raw, for fun.  And they've been holding it in Boston since 1897.  And do you know how tough you have to be to run in a whale-boned corset?  And when those bombs went off, there were runners, who, after finishing a marathon, kept running another 2 miles to the hospital to donate blood.  So, here's what I know:  these maniacs may have tried to make life bad for the people of Boston, but all they can ever do is show just how good those people are."


God bless Boston.  God bless America.  God bless all of you.
