Yesterday, as I sat Twittering at my desk (yes, it's a work related Twitter), I noticed a tweet that said there was a hostage situation in Roseville. Since I work in Roseville (well, St. Paul technically, but it's really Roseville...sort of like Sarah Lawrence is really in Yonkers) I clicked on the link and saw a news story that said there was a hostage situation at the Rosewood office building and that the nearby school was on lockdown.
Funny, I thought, isn't this the Rosewood office building? The one I am currently sitting in? If there's a hostage situation here, why didn't anyone bother to tell us? When I left work at 2:00 pm, I saw police cars and the Ramsey County Sheriff, but the cars just sat there, with their lights quietly flashing.
Well, I discovered that reason this morning. In today's Strib, the article says that the hostage situation happened in the Rosedale East building, which is next door to our building. Funny, the things you'd never know about, but for Twitter...
