I guess it's hard to change subject lines on an iPhone.

I hope these people get what's coming to them too. To do this to a bunch of wine people is really ridiculous. We didn't do anything to anybody. We didn't serve in the war or anything like that. This is totally ridiculous. I haven't heard if any of the blind people in my building have been injured. They said there's 29 injuries and I guess a couple that are serious. But I haven't found out if any of them were from the building. That's what I'd like to find out at some point.

    Hi, Kathleen,

    I just turned on the news and they just gave brief coverage of
    what happened. I don't understand why these people would want to
    harm people who live in an apartment building for the blind. I
    just know there are evil people out there but they'll get what's

        hey it just doesn't make a whole Lotta sense. Why would

        know a few years back there was some people that lived in a
        building behind us that were very rich and I started
        circulating this petition to have her apartment building moved
        so they could have it. They were all angry because we didn't
        have Christmas lights and all that stuff like most sighted
        people. And of course the petition failed. I wonder if it's
        one of them but I'm not going to speculate either. But this is
        just totally insane. I really can't believe this this is
        really weird. And now my landlord is going to have to file an
        insurance claim to get all that glass fixed and everything.

                No my friend Debbie was inside the building visiting a

                definitely OK. This whole thing is weird. The things
                that they call my building they call it a home for the

                it's what it's not. I know that sentence didn't make

                        Yes, I did watch the news and saw that New

                        near a rehabilitation center for the blind and
                        I wondered if it wasn’t the building you lived
                        in Kathleen.  I had dinner and then came on
                        here to inquire whether it was the place you
                        lived.  One of the witnesses they interviewed
                        was named Deborah.  Wonder if it’s your
                        friend.  She was OK, but now the number is 25
people who have been hurt, but not seriously. Thank God for that. Glass was broken out of
                        several buildings around that area at 23rd and
                        6th avenue.  Thanks for telling us it is your
                        building and thank God you are not anywhere
                        near.  They said on Fox News that people could
                        feel the shaking as far as 29th and 7th.  So,
                        it seems to be a little more than what some
                        authorities are saying is construction items
                        being thrown into the dumpster.  There was
                        another explosion in a dumpster in New Jersey,
                        Jersey City, I believe was the exact place at
                        an area where a Marine 5k race was taking
                        place. So, if there’s another one in Virginia,
                        sounds really suspicious to me.  Wondering
                        where they’ll attack next.  Usually groups
                        don’t take responsibility for these kinds of
                        things until all the damage is done.  Anyway,
                        glad you’re OK. Yeah, you may have to stay
                        there longer until they can check the
building’s stability and all the windows. Take care.

                        I don't know if any if you were following the
                        news on this list. I hope that you are. About
                        830 tonight a bomb went off right outside
                        Seles manner the building that I live in. 14
                        people were injured from what I was heard and
                        the dumpster was used as a weapon. Police and
                        fire and everybody else is all over the place.
                        Nobody is allowed in and out of the
                        neighborhood. Why would somebody want to set
                        off a pipe bomb in front of a building for the
                        blind? This just doesn't make any kind of
                        sense and I was supposed to move back on the
                        second. I wonder how that's going to change. I
                        guess I'll find out on Monday. I'll have to go
                        on Facebook and see if anything is on there.
                        Is this is just really crazy. And then I guess
                        a few hours later somebody set off the same
                        type a bomb in Virginia. So it wasn't used in
                        New York. Since I don't have a.m. reception I
                        can't listen to the local news. So this is
                        really crazy. But I didn't mean to disrupt the
                        happiness of The list I thought you guys
                        should know.
                          I'm OK I'm over in Stuyvesant town and I
                        wanted to let you know that. My friend Debbie
                        is OK and from what I understand my other
                        friends are OK to even though I haven't heard
                        from them. But I heard that bomb created a
                        huge mess. Windows that were just put in to
                        newly renovated apartments from what I
                        understand were blown out. Oh boy what a mess.
                        I have a feeling I may be spending more time
                        over here than I thought. OMG I knew something
                        was going to happen
