More About Boston Marathon

Two men have been identified by the FBI as the probably scum bags who planted the bombs at the Boston Marathon. They are both carrying back packs, wearing baseball style lids with logos of some sort, and seem to be carrying a heavy load. They both have dark hair and the public is being asked to call the FBI if they know anything about these monsters.

Finding these men will be difficult, I believe. A good detective needs to be a bit paranoid--did the computer blackout of American Airlines have another meaning? Were any manifests ruined or erased in order to delete the names of the terrorists who  might have been on a flight? Highly speculative but possible. 

Conspiracy theorist, Alex Jones, claims that the government was behind the bombing. He said the same thing about 9-11 and just about anything else controversial of which you can think. There are no medications that can help a person as mentally ill as this idiot. I can imagine he'll have a lot to say about the West Texas fertilizer plant explosion near Waco, and somehow blame it on Bush while another conspiracy theorist will claim that he's blaming Bush to throw us off from Obama's culpability. And as I mentioned in yesterday's blog, there will always be some political hack who will find a way to make these tragedies an issue that will support their ideologies. Republicans sometimes do this, but Democrats have PhD's in dickwadism. 

My final thought for the day is that I was a bit disturbed how the crowd at the memorial service in Boston clapped at Obama's words and those of Gov. Patrick's. A memorial service isn't a place for applause, I think. Maybe you disagree, but I'm old fashioned that way.

I wish you all peace and love this horrible week.
