How shall I describe yesterday? I like to keep this blog family friendly so I’m sure that most readers will understand my meaning when I just call it a “Rolling and Screaming Charlie-Foxtrot”. The details of this adventure is something that my wife will no doubt do a much better job of writing about than I can. What I want to focus on here is the cherry on top of that “wonderful” day.

Just when you think you’ve heard everything, along comes proof that in fact, you haven’t. Case in point is a recent CBS News story about the case of an unidentified woman who was found with her hair cut off, a plastic bag over her head and her hands cut off. She had been [...]
