Two weeks or so ago there was a murder at my brother-in-laws apartment complex. He didn't know the people involved but he did know that the gal who lived there had gone out on a date with a fellow and that her ex-husband showed up at her apartment and stabbed the guy to death right in front of her, then tried to kill her, then took off.
Scary as shit right?
Well it turns out that the gal involved is the girl who took over my old job at the newspaper. I just found this out today.
Last summer I went out with some people from work and she and her ex were there (they were sort of dating at the time). I thought he was a little weird, but not killer weird.
Now I'm all kinds of freaked out.
Scary.

UPDATED
Hunting season is open!
Scroll down for the latest update!
I hung up a few bird feeders last weekend making a little area for our feathered friends right by our front deck. So the birds can snack and we can watch them. Everyone is happy.
Louie is VERY happy.
The first day that the bird feeders were up, he spent the whole day laying behind a tree casing the joint.
Today, he pounced. Probably for Hitler's birthday.
Not 20 minutes after Bob left for work, I found a mess of feathers all over the living room carpet. Oh, and a bloody headless bird.
I'm getting tough though, I just scooted it onto a dustpan and tossed it into the yard. Dylan watched out the window as the bird "flew" to the ground. He was fascinated.
Lucky for him, about 10 minutes later Louie brought in another bird, dead but not headless. I vacuumed up THOSE feathers and scooted the NEW bird onto the dustpan. This time I showed the kids the dead bird. Elizabeth was horrified. Dylan was overjoyed.
It's now 8:30 am.
Birds - 0
Louie - 2
Tune in later for the final score!
***UPDATE***
As of 1:30 p.m., no additional avian casualties have been reported. Sources attribute the abatement of feline/avian hostilities not to a unexpected truce agreement, but rather high wind conditions forcing the feathered contingent to seek appropriate shelter. More details will be published as they become available.
