Starting to catch up: Mysterious Explosion
The fact is, I've had a lot of probs, and sitting in one place for a time has become near impossible. I'll try to catch things up in stages... Week seven the cast was removed! That night, there was an explosion which shook the building. I was scared and called Dad. He didn't answer and that totally put me into an apolocalyptic state of mind. Fire engines followed shortly. No smells or evidence of smoke. People came out of their homes to look towards 35th Avenue. The lights flickered for the rest of the evening. In the wake of commotion, a Con Ed truck parked itself for two days outside the building and vented these rank fumes into the air from a manhole cover with an industrial strength fan. Fans were venting at two other manhole covers: one near 34th avenue and one near 35th. The talk is that at 34th avenue, gas buildup shot a manhole cover into a parked car, which promptly blew up. Naturally Con Ed isn't talking.
