Nine confirmed dead from yesterday's Metro collision. :( There could still be more, as they haven't gone through all of the wreckage. I hope no one I know used the red line! (Shatna, you okay out there?) It's a real mess. It's a good thing the trains were inbound instead of out, or the deaths would have been in the dozens. The cars weren't anywhere near full.

Oh, and Ed McMahon died this morning. :( I really didn't watch the Tonight Show that much when Johnny Carson was still the host, but I always enjoyed their banter when I did watch. "Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee're's Johnny!"
