God, if those kids on the bus would have died it would have been so much worse. Still sucks though

Not really something to joke about, but after seeing this, the first thing I thought was 'Voldemort strikes again'.

I can't even imagine how unbelievably scary that would have been for the people on the bridge.
Luckily most of my friends & family are no where near the Twin Cities, otherwise I'd be worried they could've been caught on that. I hope the NT contingency is all alright

How long until someone makes a picture of the bridge with a waving flag and an eagle crying with 8-1-07 "We will never forget!"?

So far only 4 reported dead by the police, but still 20 missing. Thankfully with the repaving and such about 2 of the lanes in both directions were shut down, otherwise, with rush hour traffic there could have been 100-200 cars instead of the 50 they are reporting.
