Not related yet, as far as I know.

By the way, the scene of the shooting in D.C. last night, besides being a little over a mile from where I live, is just a couple of blocks from the local community college, Montgomery Co. Community College.

D'oh! You got me on that one. I almost expected that her survival was a cover story earlier, but I didn't want to say it online.

I hope she lives, that's for sure.

I guess we can say 8 victims, if we include the 'miss' and the survivor-to-be.

It's nearly worse than last year's anthrax warning.

The last report I heard about the Virginia victim is that she's in stable condition. She may be one of the lucky ones.

But I think about the victims doing the most mundane things of life--getting gas, going to a mall, mowing a lawn, vacuuming out a car, standing on a street corner, sitting outside of a post office--and gunned down without warning, murdered by some maniac who's getting his thrills terrifying communities, and I think of their families, in shock, grief and pain...It's incomprehensible. I hope they find him soon so no more families have to suffer.
