London Calling

Once upon a time, I woke up early in the morning and hit the gym with Cushman. As we were exiting the gym, a WPI custodian and fellow gym dude said, “Hey, did you hear? A plane just crashed into the world trade center.” We rushed home and sat glued to the TV for the rest of the day. I recall the second plane crashing. It was a horrible day.

For Londoners, a very similar occurrence went on today. In the morning rush hour, bombs went off in the Underground in 6-7 spots and at least one bus was bombed. Imagine waking up, going about your normal routine only to be shocked by a bomb. Sometimes life deals you the shittiest hand ever and you are forced to bring it to the river.

Today, my thoughts are with all Londoners. My thoughts are also with my cousin who is studying over in London. If you are a local, keep your head down, and know that we are thinking about you.
