    I think they're taking these "Mayhem" commercials too far.

    Cremation in progress. Police searching for marshmallows.

    I bow in your general direction sir. Fantastic.
    My humorous contribution consists simply of the statement that I never would have guessed that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is a fan of the Lonely Island and T-Pain.

    Fire can cause explosives to detonate or deflagrate, so they would have to let it burn out for safety reasons.
     
  7. Every time I hear someone on TV mention Chechnya, this is all I can think of. Is it inappropriate, probably. But I still laugh ...

    Sounds like the guy expired while they were fucking with him with the flash-bangs and/or waiting for EOD to check him out for booby traps.

    Twitter is hilarious right now. I just read a tweet from someone who said "Somewhere, there is a wife telling a husband 'See? I told you that boat was going to be nothing but trouble!' "

    Another gem: "Is this manhunt really going to end on a boat, on land, in a city called Watertown?"

    And then there's this: "Irony: Man blows up a marathon, spends the rest of his life running."

    Larger conspiracy, or something else?

    WCVB just showed a video of the shots being fired that triggered this latest development. Man, there were a lot of shots fired.
