Sorry you are joining the thankfully small ranks of buffistas who had murders in front of where they live (um, I think that's just you and me so far.)
Nope! Happened to me in my old neighborhood. Awful, really - a cab driver who got into a fare dispute with a passenger. Said passenger beat the shit out of him and then jumped in the cab and ran him over.
Oh, and my friend just a few weeks ago (she lives more up by shrift). The whole story was basically summed up as "Took the dog out for a walk: no dead guy. Got home from the walk: dead guy." We never did find out what happened there.

Oh yeah - me too. (One of the murders in Mpls was in front of our house. A drive-by shooting - a housemate was home and heard the shots and saw the car drive away.)

me three! In front of my old place in DC, not in Seattle (and the 7-11 directly under my floor was shot up, but I don't think they actually killed the clerk, though they did shoot the ceiling/my floor)
Someone shot my car when it was parked in front of my house in Alameda. Never figured that one out.
The only murder was not near home. Driving through Oakland, a car in front of me stopped, a guy hopped out, shot/killed a guy in another car, hopped back in his car and drove off. . This was about 3 blocks from the police station.
I've begun thinking that eBay is the savior of the USPS, because no one sends letters anymore, but we all need to ship our stuff.
shrift, be careful!
I remember when my sister lived on N. Sheridan near Foster that I'd be a bit nervous about where I parked my car. Since it was a POS, I never had a problem with it. However, several years after she moved out to the West Coast, I was watching the local news when they reported a story about a drug guy who kidnapped another drug guy's daughter and held her for some kind of ransom from his counterpart. When they announced what building she was held in, it turned out it was my sister's old apartment building.
House shook by the Hyde Park Bombings around the corner. Four people dead, seven horses.
In less scary news - I found these shoes at TJ Maxx. The original price was $129 with a TJ Maxx price of $69.95. But they were on clearance for just $20. They are surprisingly quite comfy.
anyone would appreciate this, billytea especiallly I'd think [link]
