A second explosion in New Orleans…

Just found out that one of my employees from Mobile was one of the victims that survived. He was struck by the car and grazed by a bullet.

Oh man! That sort of thing is what really makes it "real" for people. We tend to be really desensitized to these happenings. And when it's somebody you know, even on the periphery, it really drives it home.

I'm glad he's going to be ok!

He's still in the hospital in New Orleans, but is expected to recover.

Good to hear.  That’ll leave some scars - not just physical.
