Man survived the Boston blasts by seconds then witnessed the Texas blast

A man who narrowly missed twin bomb blasts while running the Boston Marathon barely avoided disaster again two days later when he was rocked by the explosion at a West, Texas, fertilizer plant.

Joe Berti, 43, could be considered the unluckiest man in the world for being so close to both horrific disasters.

Instead, he feels fortunate that he escaped from both tragedies unscathed.

'I was just like, "I can't believe this!"' said Mr Berti, who said he had never witnessed an explosion before. Then he thought: 'I just want to get out of here and get away from all these explosions.'

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

I dunno about that.  Stay on the flight but ask to sit next to him.

Yeah, if I were the security director for an Las Vegas casino, I'd have his picture distributed to ny staff, with directions to not let the guy in--with his luck, he'd clean the place out.
