#1 I drove through there on the Tuesday that the woman was killed, but didn't know anything about it. On the way back, (Sunday morning) I saw this kid in a bp gas station, just before the 270 loop. He was really creepy looking, wearing a new light blue ball cap and black slippers and was all rumpled like he'd slept in the car. Then he got in a late model car with an older man who clearly wasn't his father. The whole thing was so Malvo/Mohammed-esque, except they weren't Muslim or black or the least bit military looking...more like a young jersey hood and a 50ish, white NAMBLA member. It really creeped me out, so I stayed on 70 - avoiding the 270S loop. Ok..I know...they weren't the snipers...but they were creepy nevertheless.

Those kind of jitters can't be good for local business.

#2 and one more thing...radio said the hunting season opened that day (hmmm..did I say Sunday..I meant Monday). So....how meaningful is it that they picked up some idiot with a gun?

#3 One of the people who testified was a teacher at Malvo's school. Her testimony, when read, was that he was a nice kid...until he started reading the Koran.

Of course the Washington Post eviscerated the real point of the testimony.

#4 The media will never let on.

If any of the drawings are mentioned, it will only be in an attempt to prove his "insanity."

#5 This is yet another instance where the government is not being frank with us about foriegn terrorist involvemnt. It's part of what I was talking about yesterday in the Howard Dean Loses His Marbles comments. This isn't something we have to keep secret, because the enemy already knows.
