People who follow my Twitter feed have been asking for a post collecting my ramblings from last night about what happened to me that day. Andy Levy was kind enough to copy/paste them intothe Greenroom, so I have no excuse not to bring them over here to the blog.

It was unbelievable, almost literally

 

I remember being on the sidewalk and there was an FBI agent saying he was cordoning off the street…
