Holland Tunnel closed

Ah, good. Thought so, but wasn't sure.

I agree. If you're gonna criticize stockula's posts (which I often do myself but in a slightly more subtle way), criticize the stupid ones. There are more than enough of those, but this isn't one of them.

i only hate it because i'd rathe be somewhere more peaceful, not to mention i don't like whats been going on in other countries as a result of us, lately

What did Stock do other than post a real-time news story ?

jackass.

Do you think the fact that the Holland tunnel is the oldest and a possibly the most unstable of all the Hudson crossings may have anything to do with this?....hell, I hate getting stuck in that thing ,even without the threat of some asshole trying to blow it in......

Well, you never know, you just might get lucky and have Sylvester Stallone in there with you.

It's funny how the Holland and the Williamsburg are the two most beat to shit crossings in town.

I think Bloomberg and the public works dept. are behind it.

Actually, I heard this morning on wnyc that they also closed the Battery Tunnel to commercial traffic. And this morning when I was riding my bike on the West Side Highway, they were pretty serious business about stopping trucks heading DT.

And I heard about the Williamsburg Bridge closure. Apparently, after getting rid of all of the people who used to live in the East Village, Manhattan doesn't want them coming back. They will be discontinuing inbound service on the L train soon.

I am actually glad that the threat seems real this time. I have been getting really tired of the government fucking with the alert levels and making really broad statements about intellegence that came from someone about somthing that might happen sometime in someplace where there might be some americans. its like they're just trying to fuck with our heads. while i am sure this is a nerve racking experience for anyone near the institutions mentioned as targets, at least i dont feel like im getting fucked around with this time. does anyone else get the feeling we've been fucked around with quite a bit lately?
