    there must be at least a dozen police and a half dozen firetrucks in downtown right now, near main at mckinney.

    they have several city blocks barricaded.

    wtf is going on?

    Well, I'm on my way to Houston right now and I'm planning on impregnating a lot, if not all, of your women.

    ..... but how would they know that?

    Any amber lamps? Otherwise, could easily be a tripped fire alarm. In a big enough facility I think they have to be turned off by the FD; and if someone pulled it on purpose, that's probably arrestable. Could also be a gas leak. Or nothing even that drastic, the cops and barricading itself may just be for the firetrucks' benefit since you're in downtown on a Saturday night.

    It was my best guess. I was driving down Milam and looked to the left near McKinney and saw an ARMY of EMS, fire, police, rescue, etc.

    If it was a false alarm, half the city personel just made a trip to downtown for nothing.

    There are other things there. I know AT&T is there. I can't remember the name of that building.

    Not filming.


    Yeah, it was a legit situation, but I don't know what it is still.
