Mal ,'War Stories'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Well, the article says that they had information that the car had left the garage. I suppose that the suspect carjacking a car and then abandoning it in the same garage just never occured to them (I'm sure the cops' emotions were runing high).
I'm not defending them; I'm just saying I can see how it could happen....
I also can understand how it could happen, particularly since he had hijacked three or four cars before. They were assuming he was in the last known hijacked car. Still, I bet they feel pretty dumb. So far, they don't know how he got from there to killing the customs agent around Lenox Square, which would be about five miles north.
Thanks for thinking of me, Stephanie. He did cut a pretty wide swath through Atlanta--several carjackings downtown, the killing near Lenox, and then being captured, including a showdown with a hostage, in Gwinnett County.
It's just starting to snow here, but I was out this morning and it was already cold and windy. I should go to the library, but I'm just starting to get cozy.
For the record, it's just started snowing in Somerville, really huge flakes.
More bulletins as things developed. I'm thinking of taking my laptop outside and posting, a la one of the local broadcast meteorologists....
I take back my thing about cute guys and smiling. They can keep doing it, even if they're not interested in me. They just have to make sure to do it at me sometimes.
Okay -- back to packing.
I am so tired. For the last six hours I've been consistently woken up, by EIGHT phone calls, several snooze buttons, bad dreams, a broken toilet, and roommates leaving. Then, for the few hours I did sleep, I was having hideous nightmares, including ones where people broke into my apartment and attacked me, and ones where I had my kitty cats here, and they were hurt and/or lost.
Bleh. That sucked.
Gorgeous weather right now but snow expected tonight and into tomorrow. Joy.
Poor Alibelle!
Thanks, Nicole.
I'm glad you're getting pretty weather, even if it is temporary.
I'm packing up books.
Sad now.
Lee, how long have you been in L.A.?
Will SF take you closer to any of your family?
