In case anyone was worried I am ok, and so are all my friends. Actually we live about 6 blocks away from where that crane fell. It was scary, mainly because you have absolutely no control. So, I was walking towards the front door in our apartment to go get some smokes when I felt it. I said to my roomate, "Whoah, whoah, get by the door". He had never been through one, this is my fourth since I have been here. So after the building started to sway back and forth, he understood. We live ont the fourth floor of an apartment building, so it feels like you are a leaf getting pushed bye the wind from left to right. So Brian was at a motorcycle show and was parked near the building that had the crane collapse. But he left that area about 10 minutes before it happened. I consider him damn lucky, I told him to buy a lotto ticket. So that is it for now.
