You've probably heard...
The I-35W bridge in Minneapolis collapsed on Wednesday. It was built in 1967. Here's a link to the story: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20085333/


What I want to know is...ARE YOU OKAY, DAISY GIRL?

There's crazy footage caught by a security camera of the collapse. You can find it on YouTube.

Have they found all the missing people yet?

Laura Bush visted the scene, I'm sure she was a great help.

Hi KFS, I am doing fine, thanks for asking... A few years ago that was my regular commute but I have since moved and switched jobs. I always hated driving over that bridge the lanes would narrow as you got on it and it never seemed to be the most stable thing in the world either... I am sorry to hear about all the people whose lives were impacted by this...but I am glad it wasn't worse, either.
