Mood:  incredulous

There was a carjacking yesterday at the Turnpike tollbooth that's a couple miles from my home. I know that it's not exactly in my 'hood, but still.

How do two guys with guns make it onto the exit ramp and tollbooth area without being stopped? It's possible to walk up to that area, but there are almost always state troopers parked there, not to mention all of the toll collectors. Are these people, who are on the clock, simply not paying attention? I've, sadly, come to expect carjackings and worse in Dorchester, Roxbury, and other parts of town, but this happen here is more than a li'l surprising.

Hopefully, it's an isolated incident, and the perpetrators will be caught soon. This is a serious crime, and clearly not a misunderstood MIT Hack.

Oh, and speaking of Hacks, here's the latest. Much funnier than a carjacking.
