This afternoon, I was walking into Shaw's in Brighton when I passed by the newspaper stand and saw a picture of Mayor Tom Menino of Boston with the quote "It Could Have Been Me" in big black bold letters.
I also got hysterical seeing that headline. I put the paper into my shopping cart and proceeded to shop. After I got home, I immediately pulled the newspaper out of one of the shopping bags to read about the mayor's close call. He rode into East Boston in his police-driver SUV to visit friends of his. This was more than an hour before the 3 ton concrete slab fell down onto a car and killed Milnea Del Valle instantly.
I felt relieved that the mayor wasn't killed, but I do feel sorry about Milnea's tragic death.
