Bridge collapses in Minneapolis... journalists scramble to collect usual quotes

It may be repetitive and formulaic, but I grew up in Minneapolis and it hits a little close to home. I just can't stop reading WCCO's web site ticker. Or looking at the pictures. It's horrible.

Not to mention that when I tried to call my mom, all phone circuits are busy and likely to remain so for a long time. I don't think she uses that bridge, but nonetheless, I won't be comfortable until I hear my family's safe.

My friend had a dream last night about falling over a cliff into water and she had a really bad feeling late this afternoon, near the time that the bridge actually collapsed.
