Hope everything's ok.

Thank god she is alright. I couldn't even get a hold of her. She was running away from the finish line, her friend runs and she was there

My mom talked to her though, so that's how I know.

Is this terrorism? or what?

She just texted me I'm alive. Blast next door to where I was, but I'm ok.

2 bombs for sure

Terrorists is what it seemed like

Jesus Christ I'm trembling...scared there for a moment, hope everyone is alright

It has to be - right at the finish line.

2 blocks from where I used to live. Right in front of where my wife used to work.

2 explosions... so... maybe?

Right at the finish line, definitely seems planted.

That's what she said...two spots somewhat close

Swat team told to go back and get their rifles over the scanner, might be another bomb as well

I was 12

Scratch that , bad time for a joke

- .HOHO.

After what's going on is this really necessary?

Obviously my first and foremost concern is for anyone who may have been hurt.

But as a marathoner, I can't help but think about everyone who ran today.

Qualifying for the Boston Marathon is an incredible personal achievement, which requires incredible amounts of training.

These people have been cheated of a happy memory.

there's a picture up from the scene.

They're definitely not all ok.


early report is dozens seriously injured.

I'm assuming no matter how hard I try to get a ticket on ticketmaster that I won't get one no matter what.

When they released the regular season ones, I was on the very second they opened it for "pre-sale" (bullllllpoop) and everything was "sold out" instantly.

All good, I figured as much, but you never know with people online

I don't think you'll have a game to go to tonight.

Me either...I don't give a poop about that at this point. I'm happy my sister is ok and hope everyone else is ok. Listening to the scanner now. Another device found at the Mandarin hotel

I know not time for a joke, but I told my sister to get the (frank) home as fast as possible, she said I'm walking next to the charles, figured if there is another attack I could just jump in

Glad to hear shes okay! Hopefully everyone else it too. Thanks just (frank)ed.

If so, tell her to get out.
