That was me being nice. That is all in for this evening. The Rachel Maddow show starts right now. Good evening, rachel. I dont take it personal at all. It was an impression. It was the voice of a certain hyperbolic character. I dont mind, doesnt bother me at all, which im sure you can tell. Thanks, my friend. Thanks, michael. And thanks to you at home for joining us this hour. Heres the story. In march of this past year there was an explosion in pasadena, texas. Pasadena, texas, is about 11 miles outside of houston.
