Default Boston Marathon

2 explosions went off today as about the last half of the runners were crossing the finish line. There are two confirmed deaths and as many as 50 injured. As good friend of mine and Frequenter to this site Gene Wray (FactoryHotRod) was competong and finished about 3 minutes ahead of the explosions. I spoke with him about 30 minutes ago and he and his running group are safe but "getting out of Boston Tonight". Running the marathon was on Genes Bucket List as he has been a runner for 30 years. He says the Marathon now is anti climatic.

Likely a terrorist strike.
